Great staff, can't praise front desk enough for being helpful. We even got done croissants to take with us on a very early mirning trip out to Amalfi Coast. Nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was very well organised and all fresh food. Location was good for restaurants, some shops and v near to bus terminal, which is great for picking up the hop on-hop off bus. Only negative was it can be a bit noisy at night, due to people outside. We overlooked the park area, which was lovely, but could hear traffic. Room was well laid out. We booked a triple room, which had two adjoining bedrooms and a bathroom. Very spacious. There are also two lounge areas downstairs, a bar area-which doubles up as part of breakfast self service, whilst staff take bfast drink order and two adjoining breakfast dining areas. All very clean and tidy. Would def stay here again if we return to Rome. Thank you!

Hotel is just a few blocks from Termini station, convenient to go anywhere in Rome. The staff was great, specially the front desk and the breakfast room staff. Room was big (for europe), and clean. The area outside is not so nice at night, but the hotel is overall a great choice. Would recommend and will stay here again.

Excellent Stay!
Great service, very quiet. Made the mistake of staying at another hotel close by another night and it was on a busier street with too much noise. This hotel was very quiet, in a room not facing the street. A good night sleep is always appreciated.

The hotel is well sited near the main railway station with good links to all parts of Rome. Stayed there in November with two single rooms on different floors The hotel was comfortable and the facilities were good. The hotel was generally quite but the rooms on the first floor found the reception area was sometimes a little noisy late at night with guest returning or arriving. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful and the rooms were well serviced every day. The buffet breakfast was fine although a little tight for space when collecting items from the buffet area. Overall though we very pleased with the stay, and would recommend the hotel.

The room I had was quite good and big. Plenty of space for two people and nice bathroom. Internet was also very good and consistent. Air conditioning worked and was good. Area surrounding hotel isn't great but that's what you get for the convenience of the train station. They also collect your key every time you leave the hotel but the reception is 24hrs. At night they lock the front door too so you have to ring/knock to get them to open it.

Kennedy Hotel is lovely. Well-kept property, great A/C, modern bathrooms, excellent staff. Location is amazing, just a couple blocks from Termini (which has the Mercato Centrale, a shopping mall underneath, and a fast train to the airport). My only suggestion for improvement is that the breakfast could use some sliced meats.

When in Rome, I often stay near Termini, then walk or take public transportation to the sites. Location is incredibly convenient. My room was clean, AC was cool. Water pressure was strong. Breakfast was fine, although some additional fruits or cold meats would be appreciated. The bar listed is in name only and only operating during the breakfast hour for coffee. You will have to go elsewhere for an aperitivo. The JFK art was a welcome surprise.

Very convenient hotel if you are looking to stay close to the train station. The only 2 complaints we have is that the AC in the room works with remote control and we were not given the remote. We had to climb up and manually turn it on. You also have to give them your room key everytime you leave the room. The parking garage is by the train station. There is no parking in front unless u get lucky enough to find a spot and want to pay €2 an hour.

We booked this room because it was close to the train station so that we could get to the airport easily. Our room was dated and was not as advertised in the photos. The paint was peeling in the bathroom tub, tv wasn't working, no fridge, no iron. Staff were nice and courteous. Unless they renovated it, I would not stay here. Booker beware, your room might not be what you see in the photos.

What I like about the Kennedy hotel in Rome? Well, the list includes location, building / arhitecture, check-in starting at 13h, good breakfast, comfy beds and extremely comfy pillows, the room furniture, the paintings and gravures on the walls ( a baroque Rome flavour), the tv - channels offer, the free wifi, the modern bathroom with good quality amenities and the very nice, careful and polite staff.

Close to public transportation dinning, shopping, laundry service etc. Property sits on a corner lot, next to a plaza/park did not provide AC even after asking for it on 2 separate times.. had to open the window for ventilation. Club close by would play music, people drinking, having conversations at the park etc. This would have been prevented by the hotel honoring the AC unit that they list as being available.

Only good thing is the location, as in close to the main station.. the area is extremely ghetto and sketchy. Most of the staff was decent except one man absolutely hated his job. He greeted us very rude , pretty much yelled at us when we walked in. Then insulted our country that we came from, not that I cared but most people would get offended. And on the day we checked out he was literally screaming in a lady’s face that got the wrong room. Telling her about how much he hates his job and doesn’t want to deal with her. Luckily we only stayed here 3 nights out of the 7 in rome. Stay elsewhere unless you need a quick stay right by the station .

Dear Mr Mayconn, Thank You for having appreciated our cleanliness, room and bathroom. For the Wi-Fi there was a problem in the area, something that was beyond us. For the TV we had fixed on the next day that you had alerted us, so if we had done our part, why you are still complaining again and again ? It's a pity that you did not appreciated our efforts, things can does not work, but if we solved the matter, why you still repeat it? very disappointing your attitude Sir, I'm sorry to say it.

The stay was a quick one, mostly for proximity to Termini. However the room and building interior were very nice. The exception was the restroom in the room, which was designed very awkwardly, with very little room to maneuver, and the shower was very problematic (shower door would not open/close very well, and we all struggled to do so). But the room itself, and even a view out the window onto ancient ruins, was very nice. Overall it was what we needed.

When my co-traveller arrived there was a misunderstanding at the reception and it took us an hour to check-in with the fear also of cancelling our reservation while already there. The facilities are old and the decoration is quite depressing. The breakfast was nice and the stuff was really helpful. The area is very central and convenient (close to the central station) but it didnt feel safe especially during the night. For a short stay, it is a value for money hotel.

Dear Olga, Thank You for your review. If you arrive earlier than check in time, it could happen that you don't find the room ready as we need time to clean well and sanify it. We are located in a Historical Umbertino buildling of 1880, located in the UNESCO heritage of Rome city center , it's a pity that you did not like this feature , considering our decoration"depressive". Thank You for having appreciated our delicious breakfast and our staff. The area is historical and central, where you'll find a lot of people walking 24 hours, and our hotel got TVCC for the security of our guests and our staff. We hope that you'll come back even for a longer stay. Kind Regards Hotel Kennedy Staff

Well, front lobby is hard to access. 2nd, we get there to the "Hotel" late at night. They sent us a block away to an apartment like building. They gave us 3 keys for 3 doors. Not as what it was described in photos and description. The only thing impressive was the Alexia. We left stuff and had a carrier pick them up. She was very courteous and communicative.
