Hotel Arco di Travertino

The hotel has a price/performance ratio that is hard to beat. Of course, compared to significantly more expensive hotels, you have to compromise on the size of the breakfast buffet and the amenities. In return you get a cheap room in a small, more familiar hotel with very friendly staff. The metro station right next to the hotel takes you to the center of Rome in 10-15 minutes.

My room was clean, staffs were very kind and friendly. Breakfast in good quality. Close from the metro station and there is a supermarket nearby too. I want to stay here again when I visit Rome in the future.

My second visit to Arco and I would certainly return. Staff very friendly particularly the girls at breakfast. Great location

Check in was fast and easy. The air conditioning in our room was struggling to keep up.

Close to its name sake Metro, it’s slightly out of the city centre but with regular transport to get in and out of the city. Located near to Caffarella park if you are interested in running or letting the kids run wild. The complimentary breakfast was satisfying and the staff were very pleasant. The room was up to standard, clean and comfortable.

I highly recommend booking here if you are looking for good value and to stay a bit outside of the main city. It was a fantastic place with a quality room, great service, gorgeous property, and a lovely light breakfast. We chose this hotel because I knew we would get a metro pass anyway and it was 6-8 stops from the main tourist areas in Rome - plus we wanted to explore the via Appia Antica and Aquaduct parks nearby and this hotel is walking distance / a short bicycle ride to those parks. It was a great decision for that. It isn't as quiet as expected (being further out) because there is a train station and two main roads surrounding the hotel so at night we still heard traffic and sports celebrations - but nothing earplugs didn't fix. The actual hotel is surrounded by a big fence and has gorgeous grounds and gardens. We were assigned room 40 and to our delight, it was a penthouse-style suite on the top floor with no other adjacent rooms, it had a huge terrace and 360 views of the neighbourhood which was really special. The access to that room is up a tight spiral staircase so not ideal for big suitcases or those with mobility needs, but we only had backpacks so it was fine for us and we were so grateful for our luck at being given that room without asking or knowing. The staff were all so friendly and kind. The housekeeping was beyond expectations. The cafe italiano and cafe americanos were delicious. I hope to stay there again without question someday!

Very clean room.

The position is far from city centre, however metro connection is very easy and quick (8 stops from Termini station). The building looks like a villa, surrounded by a beautiful garden: a peaceful oasis, where the noise of the traffic does not disturb too much. Some details would need refurbishment, but nothing is really critical. I will consider it again for future stays in Rome.
