Hotel Celio

Arrived, informed the hotel room had flooded. No other rooms available so the manager booked us a hotel nearby and helped to cover the cost. Even drove us there. Very nice of him.

The location of hotel Celio is great, close to Colosseum. Although it was very quiet and nice surroundings. The room was comfortable with all the necessary facilities, the WiFi reliable. The breakfast was great, the staff is polite and helpful. It was an amazing experience for me and my family.

The hotel was just beautiful in the perfect location steps from the Colosseum. Staff was extremely friendly. The room was a bit small but I was expecting that. It is beautiful. Definitely recommend you staying there.

Let’s start with the good… Two friends traveling together. Requested two beds and they gave us one bed with more floor space which was fine. Rooms and hotel are beautifully appointed with antiques. Service was superb. Extremely friendly staff. Breakfast was exquisite. Old fashion, but stylish. I understand that it is a quaint boutique hotel, but they need to put some money into some upgrades. There was minimal ventilation in the small room, which made it very stuffy very fast. We were able to open up the window, which faced the back mechanic tent that was blowing some sort of machinery all day. But at least we got fresh air. The hair dryer was from 1950 and had duck tape holding it together…. barely blew out any air. The toilets were made for munchkins. You literally had to put 1 foot in the shower and 1 foot out in the room to be able to take care of your private parts. You also had to climb up almost a foot to get into the shower. The shower doors did not open all the way because of how tight the space was. The room is fine if you are under 5’9” and weigh less than 140 pounds. If you are taller or wider, the bathroom will be a struggle. The hotel is good for a 1-3 night stay but definitely not ant long term vacation stay. You will regret feeling claustrophobic after long days of sightseeing.

Nice property. Within waking distance of several historical sites. Staff is very friendly and welcoming. Rooms are small in European fashion but nicely decorated. Very quaint.

My husband and I stayed at Hotel Celio with a group on business for a week. The hotel is very charming with an interesting history and rooftop terrace that has a view of the top of the Colosseum! Roberto was extremely helpful and patient with all of our touristy questions. The breakfast is awesome, now that I'm home, I miss the Italian cappuccinos. Located a few blocks from the Colosseum, restaurants galore and a 24/7 convenient store just down the street, it was the perfect location for my first visit to Rome and I will remember it forever! Grazie mille!!

There were cockroaches on the bathroom. My wife had an early commi**ent and the entrance was locked, she tried looking for someone but there was no one visible. Finally one guy was sleeping in one room with the door open and she woke him up by knocking the door. He finally woke up and got the door open. She ended up loosing her Florence train.
