I have lived in Italy for a year, and this was my 4th time going to Rome. I had my mom and friend from the states coming to visit, and wanted a hotel in a good location, that wasn't too pricey. This is how I stumbled upon Arenula. Upon arrival, check in was stress free. I had read reviews that... More

Excellent central location. Clean rooms & bathroom with daily maid service. As echoed in previous posts, if everyone sticks to their half hour breakfast slot then the morning experience is much more tolerable Unfortunately we saw rude guests ignoring the serving staff request to wait at the door and seating themselves at uncleared tables then getting aggressive when they werent...

Stayed here for 4 nights starting on 4/6/2012. The prior reviews pretty well reflects the hotel. The location is great, the price is affordable, the staff courteous and the accomdations and bath clean. We had a 4th floor room and we were aware previously there was no elevator in the hotel. That got a bit tiresome after a few days.... More

We were 3 friends from Denmark staying at the Arenula. Hotel is well-situated - the hotel and its rooms are basic but clean and well worth the reasonable price for the location. Some guests were unaware that they needed to reserve a half-hour breakfast slot. Others arrived later than their slot and/or stayed too long. Considering the limited space -... More

We stayed here for 2 nights in February 2011, it is basic but comfortable and in great location near to everywhere you want to see. Once arriving at the airport, it was really easy and cheap to get a train to the centre It did take us ages to find this hotel by foot, but was due to us arriving... More

We stayed 6 nights and had a wonderful time....everything (except the Vatican) within easy walking distance.The front desk was very helpful with all my many questions. Our room was large with 2 windows and the entire hotel very clean. The lovely ladies at breakfast always had big smiles for us as they made our coffee! Would definately stay here again. More

We stayed 3 nights at the Arenula - and had a nice stay. The location is just fantastic with very short distances to Campe de Fiori, Pantheon, Piazza Navona and Piazza Venezia. Morning breakfast is a bit of a hustle - but taken into consideration the number of romms - the system with prebooking is better than having 50 persons... More

The Arnula is centrally located in Rome's most interesting neighborhood - two black from the Tiber, five blocks from the Pantheon, six from the Piazza Navona - and so extremely convenient. It is also well run, clean, friendly, and helpful. The breakfast is excellent. Because it lacks an elevator, it cannot charge high prices. If you don't mind stairs, this... More

The Arenula Hotel is just minutes from Campo de' Fiore, The Pantheon and Piazza Navona. With convenient bus service to the train station and other parts of the city, it is my choice location. This is definitely a budget hotel with an entrance up a flight of stairs in an older building and larger rooms up another flight or two.... More
