Fabio and Dey (at the front desk) were fantastic. The property is well located, less than 5 minutes walk from Temini station. Breakfast was good but expected more protein like eggs, sausages etc. Overall better than what qw expected after reading few negative comments. I recommend this property.

I do NOT recommend stating here! The hotel wants to upcharge you for every little thing. They offered to check us in early for a fee. They charged more in euros for the hotel tax than what they stated per day. The beds are awful. It was like sleeping on a box spring. I asked for a mattress pad and they laughed and said they would take care of it but did not. I asked again the next day with no results. On the 3rd day I asked for a couple of extra blankets and they wanted to charge me for them. There is black mold on the walls in the bathroom. The AC doesn't work 3 quarters of the time. The furniture in the lobby looks like it should be in the dumpster.

Absolutely adored the location. It was close to everything that we needed over the days that we were there. Loved having the coffee in the morning, but there's no coffee in the rooms, rooms are smaller than US size which should be expected. The showers and bathrooms were much smaller than expected, but that should also be expected when leaving the US. They were very clean, courteous and multiple people on property spoke English which helped. There is an elevator on site which helped a lot, but it only holds three people MAX. The elevator is very slow but reliable. While they do provide breakfast everyday, if you're used to US or variety, you will be disappointed in the pastries and pastries they serve for breakfast.

This room cost $415 a night the room was small, old furniture, the beds sink in middle, the bathroom shower was 2x2 feet, shower head you had to hold to take a shower, AC was hardly working and the key to the room you had to hand in ever time you left. No worth the money.

The hotel was a 5 minute walk to Termini station so a lot of shops and restaurants around. The room size was adequate. It contained a mini fridge, safe and a closet. The staff was very friendly. The one thing that really turned me off was the hotel uses a key and there is a 'trick' to opening the door. The housekeeper tried to explain (no English, just signs), then she got the maintenance guy who tried explaining (no english, just signs). Never got it, thank God my son was with me or else I would never have gotten into the room. I don't think I should be figuring out how to open a door. Really annoyed me. Otherwise, everything was fine.

Decent and close to train station. Horrible AC
The hotel is in a convenient location close to the train station. Breakfast included was a basic European breakfast. Air conditioning was horrible. They crammed 4 adults into a tiny room. when we complained about the AC, they moved us into another bigger room, although the bigger space was appreciated the air condition functioned the same. Average hotel that is overpriced.

The room needed maintenance
The gentleman that checked us in was very friendly and kind. Then we went to our room. We never were able to get the air conditioner to cool the room down. It was on the hot side the entire night. The floor was dirty. Dust bunnies around the furniture. The sink was leaking from the drain causing water to leak on the floor. The shower and curtain was moldy. The shower curtain didn't stretch across the entire length of the stall. There was tape on the bathroom door frame since it was broken. The curtains didn't shut right. The towels had holes, were tattered and stained. The walls were dirty. On the way out I told the staff about the issues with the room. They were apologetic, but that was it.

I stay at this hotel recently and it was OK. The staff was very nice and super accommodating to late night arrivals. This is indeed a 3-star hotel. The hotel is in good spot, very close to the train station but the location is kind of dirty. The hotel is kind of dated and definitely due for some renovations. Overall, it’s not a bad place to stay for a night or two but nothing more than that. Definitely get what you pay for.

Unfortunately, on the first day, the door in the bathroom had come off and happen to fell on my wife. Sink wouldn’t drain the water fully. In hot and humid weather, air conditioning was the slowest. I think it has the potential to make a great hotel, they just need to pay more attention towards the room and be more welcoming of the guests.

Este es un lugar perfecto para hospedarse, el trato muy amable en recepción, buen desayuno incluido y muy céntrico para visitar todo el centro de Roma.El problema con el hotel es la limpieza, las sabanas no las cambiaron en los 6 días de estancia y la habitación solamente se recogió pero nunca se limpió. Si arreglan este problema seguro que volveremos.

I liked the kind,friendly accommodating staff. The hotel is centrally located and kept clean thanks to the busy, hardworking staff. I didn't like the small shower with inadequate curtain. I didn't like that the tiny soaps and body washes provided were not replenished during my 4-night stay.' The air conditioning unit in my room was inefficient and rattled and thumped, making sleep difficult.

Worst experience ever!
Hotel Contilia in Rome, Italy was the worst hotel experience I have ever had. The front desk manager was extremely rude and hostile. I made reservations through hotels.com back in March for two nights, May 11-13. I received a confirmation email at the time of booking and again the day prior to arrival. When we arrived on the 11th I was told my reservation had been cancelled. No explanation. They did, however, have some rooms available at a much higher price. They refused to honor the prices on my booking confirmation. Then they said we had to pay in cash. We were sent to look for an ATM. On the way back to the hotel we found another hotel that had availability at a much better price. When we told Hotel Contilia that we were going to stay elsewhere they refused to give us back our passports and threatened to call the police. I was afraid we would not be able to explain our side of the story to the police because we do not speak Italian. I felt like we were being held hostage. It was a horrible experience. We paid 50% more for two rooms than the price I was given at booking for three rooms. Total scam. Stay clear of this hotel.

Response from contilia on May 15, 2023
Dear customer,I inform you that your reservation has been canceled because a check was made on your credit card which gave a negative result, a message was sent to you but with no result of updating the card on your part, the system automatically cancels the rooms, and puts them back on sale and adjusts the prices based on the new availability and new rates of the moment. When you arrived you decided to take the rooms and gave the documents and checked in, but only after you wanted to leave, which is not possible after you took the rooms and they were blocked for you, we checked and the payment of the rooms and of the tourist tax, everything was paid by credit card.Best regardsHotel Contilia

We stayed two nights location-wise good. However, the room was too small; there wasn't a proper duvet, Bath /face towel provided. The bathroom/toilet door was unable to open fully. A TV on the dressing table doesn't make sense. Therefore, I would rate it two stars compared with the price.
