Grand Hotel Olympic

Good location. Room was a little small but OK for our needs. A little bit dated but was clean. Staff were friendly and spoke good English (my Italian is poor). Continental breakfast was fresh and OK. I don't really have any negative comments as the only issue I had (shower waste running slow) was rectified very quickly. Overall, I would recommend this hotel.

The hotel is in a great location 4 blocks to a Metro Station and Vatican City. It is on a busy street with high end shops and restaurants.The insulated windows make the room very quiet. The heat/air was very efficient and kept the room at a comfortable temperature. Breakfast was nice also, it was all cold food and the staff took pride in their presentation. the in room wifi was a little slow but being on vacation I didn't mind I was still able to upload picture on Facebook and text my family with out any problems. The room was on the sterile with faux wood flooring on the floor and 2 of the walls. If where was a large picture on one of the walls, it would make it more appealing and raise the end tables up a little so it would be more comfortable to use. This is for room 119 I am not sure of what the other rooms look like. The staff was very friendly and made check in easy (you have to pay the hotel tax in cash up front). I would stay in this hotel again the next time I am in Rome because of the great value. I would like to thank all the staff for making my visit to Rome enjoyable.

The hotel is further from the downtown core allowing us to be closer to an actual neighbourhood of Rome. When going to a local market and restaurant we were among locals and not just tourists, which is what we love, but blocks away we were in the tourist section. Although the hotel advertises that it has an on site bar it was never open which is something we always enjoy. Friendly and helpful staff! Overall a great hotel for the price!
