Booked up this hotel on a website under the 'top secret hotel' guise. Have to say I was worried having read all the reviews. Happy to say I was very happily surprised. Whilst yes it is a little way out (20 min walk to the Vatican), it is a great spacious hotel of very good standard. The breakfast is excellent,... more

The room level was standard. Although it was clean, it was incredibly small and claustrophobic. The weather was nice, but you could not leave your window open because of the loud traffic noise. Amazingly enough, it had nowhere to store your clothes - not a dresser drawer to be found, only a very small, hard to access closed with a... more

a little away from centre of city but the buses are nearby and are cheap and plentiful. Breakfasts are excellent,lots of choices. Dinner menu ok if you want to stay in, but there are a couple of very good restaurants within walking distance of the hotel(10 minutes). Rooms fine but only complaint no tea/coffee making facility. The staff were friendly... more

This hotel is great – especially if you visit Rome during the hot summer months. The hotel itself and the room are average without much charm. Great breakfast buffet. But what really makes a different is the pool area. That is absolute great. We spend a week in Rome in July and enjoyed to combine the historical sight of Rome... more

I stayed at this hotel with my daughter from Saturday September 13th to Wednesday 17th and it was very nice but just too far out and a real nuisance to get home some nights, we had to get a bus to the metro and if it was late when we were going home we had to get a taxi .... more

We made a reservation 2 months in advance. Upon arrival, at 21.00 PM, the desk clerk told us that, due to technical problems, the room was not available and we had to move to another hotel. This was clearly not true, since rooms are not unavailable due to technical problems. Another couple was told the same, which I found highly... more

We stayed at the Jolly Villa Carpegna in mid-July, and overall we were pleased, and would stay there again. The Good: - We liked the location. We took the #31 bus to Cipro subway station (on the A line), which is only one stop from Ottaviano/Vatican stop. This worked well for us, as most times we only had to wait... more

My husband and I stayed at Jolly Hotel Carpegna for six nights. The rooms are large compared to many hotels within the central part of Rome. Breakfast was very plentiful each morning. The front desk was very helpful whenever we had questions. We caught the 571 or 916 bus (bus stop is about 4 blocks from hotel not far from... more
