Hotel was located at a very convenient spot near the train station, walkable distance. Hotel staff Joseph helped to upgrade us and we had a city view. Stayed for 4 nights, the room is a little small but it was very clean, definitely would love to stay there again!

This hotel was the biggest surprise for me during this trip! I don’t know where he got his so-called four-star rating! I highly do not recommend this "pseudo four-star" hotel! For my first stop in Rome, I chose a self-proclaimed four-star hotel in the city center. However, the experience after check-in made me very disappointed, and it can even be said to be a trap. This hotel is actually more like a low-end B&B and does not meet the four-star standards at all. Firstly, the room was very small and extremely unhygienic. Not only is the space cramped, the cleanliness is unacceptable. After checking in, I immediately asked to check out and get a refund for one night as I decided to move to another hotel. However, the service attitude at the front desk is speechless. The person who received me was a black man. Although he tried to communicate with me through a translator, in the end the hotel refused to refund the room fee. Even if I applied through the Ctrip backend, there was no progress. Finally, the hotel said they could upgrade my room for free. However, this so-called "upgrade" is almost a misnomer - the room is only slightly one-sixth larger than before, and the lighting is slightly better, but it doesn't make up for the other problems at all. Overall, this hotel is far from worth the price: it costs more than 5,000 yuan for two nights, not including breakfast. With such hardware facilities and service level, it does not deserve a four-star rating. As for the "rooftop breakfast" promoted by the hotel, it is also full of deception. The so-called "roof" is nothing more than a small balcony upstairs with extremely limited views. Moreover, the quality of the breakfast is low. Although the price is not high at only 10 euros, it is not as fresh as the food in the restaurants opposite the hotel. The bread and tea snacks in the restaurant opposite are more cost-effective. A cup of tea and two breads only cost about 5 euros. What makes me most angry is that the promotional photos of this hotel are completely inconsistent with reality and are simply "photos and deceptions". This stay completely ruined my opinion of this hotel and I would definitely not recommend anyone to choose this hotel. I really don't understand how it got the "4 star" rating, extremely poor experience!

The hotel is close to the train station by walking distance and friendly personnel. Were helping us out with our questions.

The hotel staff has a very good service attitude! Very enthusiastic! Any problems will be solved in time! The room is not big, it is a renovated hotel. I found that the bathroom light was broken on the night of check-in. The point is that the elevator is very small, only one person can take it at a time, and you need to walk up several steps to take the elevator, which is not suitable for people with inconvenience or who don't like to climb stairs

Delighted. Location was perfect, 5 mins walk from Termini. Room quality was excellent. Bed, bathroom, room facilities all perfect. The staff were brilliant as well, Rita in the breakfast room was excellent, fantastic coffees, regular top ups, excellent start to each day. Martina on reception was excellent, very efficient check in and very helpful throughout our stay. Special mention to the young guy on reception as we were checking out, we didn’t get his name but he was brilliant in sourcing us a taxi back to the airport when the Leonardo Express was cancelled for hours, the taxi queues were huge but he managed to get us sorted, ensuring we got to the airport in time to catch our flight home. Wonderful hotel, will definitely stay again when we return to Rome. Thank you.

Nous avons réservé dans cet hôtel en janvier 2025 (pour une arrivée fin avril 2025) soit 4 mois avant. 1 semaine avant notre arrivée, nous avons confirmé par email notre réservation qui a été approuvé à nouveau par l’hôtel. Nous sommes arrivés un samedi matin à 10h pour déposer nos valises. Quelle surprise fut d’apprendre que l’hôtel n’avait plus de chambres pour nous suite à un soi-disant « problème technique ». Travaillant dans l’hôtellerie durant de nombreuses années, j’ai été surpris qu’en arrivant un samedi en matinée, que l’hôtel était en incapacité de nous attribuer une autre chambre. La déception passée, la réceptionniste nous informe nous transférer à l’hôtel Prassede (hôtel du même groupe) qui se situe sur le trottoir d’en face. Sur le papier, l’hôtel est un 4 étoile comme le Doria. Nous rentrons dans la chambre et au bout de 5 minutes, nous entendons notre voisin de chambre discuter avec sa femme. Aucune insonorisation des chambres, nous faisons constater sur place au manager de l’hôtel que ce n’est vraiment pas possible de supporter ce bruit, particulièrement pour un hôtel que nous n’avions pas choisi. Le Doria étant complet pour la nuit, et au vu de notre mécontentement, le manager m’informe qu’il nous renverra au Doria le lendemain pour notre seconde nuit. A l’hôtel Prassede, mes craintes se sont confirmées. Les voisins sont rentrés de soirée à 5h du matin. J’ai dû sortir de ma chambre en pyjama pour leur demander de parler moins fort tellement la chambre était mal insonorisée. Les portes claquent, les chaises grincent au 2eme étage dans la salle de petit déjeuner, un enfer la nuit comme le matin ! Suite à cette nuit horrible que nous avons vécue, le Doria nous a surclassé pour la 2eme nuit. De retour, nous arrivons dans une chambre un peu plus grande. Quelle déception d’être réveillé à nouveau à 6h du matin par les voisins d’en face prenant une douche et les entendant comme si nous partagions la chambre. L’hôtel nous a offert un verre également à l’hôtel prassede (habitude de l’hotel pour faire passer la pilule lors du changement d’hôtel). Lors de ce moment, nos doutes sur l’honnêteté de l’hôtel se sont confirmés. Quelle surprise de voir d’autres clients du Doria Hôtel se faire déplacer à leur tour à l’hôtel prassede comme nous (nous avons filmé pour preuve de notre bonne foi). En conclusion, cela a confirmé les méthodes honteuses de cet hôtel utilisant le surbooking afin de remplir leur deuxième hôtel, le Prassede. Cette méthode pourrait être acceptable si l’hôtel Doria avait la décence de prévenir du surbooking de l’hôtel afin de laisser au client la chance de choisir de rester ou non et ainsi trouver un autre hôtel mais bien entendu, l’idée étant de remplir les deux hôtels du groupe et pas de vous faire quitter les hôtels du groupe. Suite à ces deux nuits affreuses que nous avons passé dans ces deux hôtels indignes du niveau 4 étoiles, nous avons demandé le remboursement d’une nuit ce qui nous semblait le minimu
