Nice enough hotel for the price, clean, friendly staff. It is only 2 underground stops from the Colosseo and 4 from Termini; the metro station is less than 5 minutes away. If you are going to Ostia Antica or to the seaside, the train there is close too (Ostiense station). It can be noisy as one side is facing the... More

Good money for a Saturday night booking. It is quite close to the train tracks but it's not so loud that I couldn't sleep. The location was good for us as we wanted to stay near Trastevere, which is only about a 10/15 minute walk away, so that we could go to the bars and restaurants on Saturday night and... More

Hotel Primus Roma is by far the worst hotel experience we've had. I can't believe that the hotel has 3 stars ... no way. The hotel is located just few meters from the railway tracks (6 tracks), which means that trains are constantly driving by, it's so loud that it's impossible ti sleep. The breakfast is very bad, nothing is... More

If you are going travel to Rome don't choose this hotel. Very unfriendly and rude staff. They don't speak any other language than italian. Hotel is located next to train track so it's very noisy inside even in the night. My and my friends booked two double rooms and we got twin rooms. It's unacceptable! I'm working at the hotel... More

Well, I read all that being writen here about this hotel, and it seems that some just got over expected. The hotel is nice. The huge benefit is the price & the transportion. The hotel is very close to Pyramid metro station (2 stations down to Coloseo in line B) and close to Ostiense train station, which give you a... More

We stayed in April 2009. The hotel was fairly easy to find but not in a very nice neighbourhood. I wouldn't stay around here again. Everything was fine when we checked in. When we went to our room I thought how considerate it was that they give you earplugs (I'm a very light sleeper and sleep with earplugs at the... More

I found this hotel to be very accomodating. It wasn't in the best location, but my son who is going to school in Rome lives a block away. Comfortable and clean, but no screens in the windows.

We booked this hotel over Easter weekend, last minute, and ended up paying 100 euro a night. I am SURE that you can find better hotels in Rome for that much under normal circumstances. It's very basic. Positives: - It's near the metro station. About a 10 euro cab ride from Campo Dei Fiori (where a lot of bars are).... More

My first experience with a European hotel and I was very pleased. It was clean, the staff friendly, and in a great location. 5 minutes walk from the metro and the same for the train to the airport.
