This is the perfect location if you come to Rome for easy walk to the colosseum. Host of this hotel is amazing, helpful, and knows the area for assistance. The rooms are super cute, comfortable beds and the breakfast is ala Italian style and dining around the corner is amazing.

Close to the Colosseo and a wonderful area for a walking tourist. Very small room but all I needed for one person. Lovely hostess and this morning the staff were so friendly. A substantial Italian breakfast. I would have liked some ice, or a freezer to make my own for the warm wine I had! But that’s such a small thing. Value for Roman money for sure.

If you are looking for a nice, clean, safe place to rest your head while you are staying in Rome, this is it. It’s nothing special, but the AC, shower and bed were great, the staff was very kind and helpful with directions from the time I landed to the time I arrived to the guesthouse. There was a convenient store, walking distance to colleseum and plent of food options.

Charming room and friendly staff near colosseum
Nothing fancy, but very charming and super clean room. Breakfast was self-serve in own room which worked great for us because we didn’t have to rush to a breakfast area by a certain time. The bldg is very private and well kept. It’s away from all the hustle in Rome, but also convenient and very close to the colosseum and imperial forum. We regret not booking our entire stay in Rome at this place; the other place we stayed at wasn’t as charming and was more expensive. Thank you Ilaria and Diana for making our Rome experience pleasant and unforgettable. Sincerely, María & Yamil

Our stay at MAISON COLOSSEO was perfect (once we'd figured out how to lower the window blinds on day 3 - what fun!!). Great position for some of the major sights and not far to walk for others. Ilaria information was very welcome and she pointed out some great places to eat, good variety of food at a good price. When we go back to Rome we would be very happy to say there again! Highly recommended.

Great for couples
This is a guest house, so feels comfortable and no rushing for breakfast 8n the morning as this is supplied for you the day before. Is continental style. This is in a residential block within a residential area but not far from restaurants at all. Colleseum within easy reach and tube station. The only negative is that can be noisy from neighbours at times. But everything is clean and comfortable and is great for couples. Very friendly and helpful owner. Would stay again

Great Find
A lovely find, at a great rate for something relatively central. The communications before the stay were friendly and prompt, and we were greeted at the door on our arrival. The neighbourhood is very safe and quiet, all residential, plenty of restaurants and opposite a Basilica. Our room was a little small, but it was their last one at the time we booked and it was very well appointed, clean and comfortable. Rome was experiencing a heatwave at the time and the air conditioning coped very well. Breakfast is a simple, in the room, option but perfectly adequate for a quick start. The property is very close to the Colosseum, and hence the Metro station there. Probably a 10 minute walk in the morning, maybe 15 at the end of a long day of sightseeing. There are plenty of restaurants between the Metro and the hotel, all of them seemed popular with a good mix of meals available. There are also a couple of small mini markets to stock up on other essentials. Overall a great place and we will be returning.

The Good: very close to Colosseum, Metro, tram, buses. Very clean. Modern bathroom and Classic bedroom. Italian breakfast provided; espresso and milk, cornetto, little cookies and yoghurt. There is a supermarket in the area, we bought some more breakfast items and stored in the mini fridge. Ilara was very helpful and nice. The less good: bed is hard and front door is loud. Overall very good for the price.

Perfect option close to the center of Roma.
We really enjoyed our stay. The staff was very nice and our room was great. We were less than a half mile from the Colosseo and within walking distance to 2 metro stops. They were kind enough to let us borrow an adapter so we could charge a computer. They also left a complimentary bottle of wine a few days before we left. Thank you so much for everything!

clean, central location, cheap, understanding.
The hotel had a shuttle service who picked us up from the Airport for 55 Euro (One Way) and the driver was very welcoming. When we arrived at the hotel building the hotel was very clean and nice and the hostess was extremely helpful with dinner recommendations for dinner. I believe the hotel was the first floor to an apartment building. On our last night there the internet went down and we were without WI-FI which was an inconvenience because our friend was put up in a Air BnB by the hotel (over booked) so we had no way to get ahold of him and or check into our Ryan Air flight (Ryan Air charges 45 euro if you don't check in 2 hours prior to the flight). The host was extremely pleasant about everything and helpful and she spoke English very well, so there was little to no barriers. FYI the reception desk is only opened from 0900 until about 1100. Other than a few hiccups it was a steal of a stay and would stay there again. Coliseum, Arch of Constantine and the Roman Forum is about a 3 minute walk Il Vittoriano is about a 5 minute walk Pantheon is about a 12 minute walk if you are looking for the Big Bus tour it is about a 3 min walk to the pick up station We also had dinner at the Aroma which is a very nice restaurant that over looks the coliseum and it was about a 2 min walk.

Excellent hotel near Colosseum & transport links
We were contacted before we left home with useful information about our stay in Rome. The hotel was easy to find in a great location. On arrival we were given all the information we needed for our 7 days in Rome by the wonderful staff member at Maison Colosseo, the room was spacious, impeccably clean and well equipped. The hotel is well located for public transport, shopping and historical sites. Within a few hundred metres of the hotel are shops, supermarkets, bars, restaurants, a post office and interesting shops as well as market stall selling fruit & veg, there's also a great baker nearby - all this and we all had peaceful nights sleep throughout.

Brilliant find!
We booked this hotel after reading all the great reviews. We are two couples on a long weekend and wanted to be near to the Colosseum and surrounding area. Ilaria the owner was so welcoming and helpful. Our rooms were spacious and the hotel is situated on a quiet dead end street so there was little traffic or noise from passers by. King size beds, large shower room, coffee machine, free bottled water and juice and a few breakfast items (melba toast/ croissant/yoghurt/biscuits/butter and preserves) restocked everyday. Clean, spacious and 5 minutes from some lovely restaurants- we can recommend il pentagrappolo wine bar highly for live jazz music, food, drinks and lovely staff. Happy to go back here any day!

Great location & Nespresso but otherwise basic
This hotel is in a great location for the colosseum (5 minute walk maximum). The room is clean but basic and the walls are very thin and the neighbourhood was very noisy. The constant slamming of the front door is irritating and the bed was not very comfortable either. However this hotels location is in a top location and for around £60 per night is very cheap for this part of town. The check in staff were very friendly and helpful and could not do enough to help. I probably wouldn't stay here again but if you are only in Rome for a day or two and you are on a budget this place is pretty good value and they have a Nesspresso machine with capsuals supplied in the room.

Excellent Location and Great Service
What I liked about this hotel: -excellent, friendly service (the manager speaks English, French, Italian and some Portuguese!) -good variety of breakfast foods (in room) including croissants, toasts, juices, yogurt, espresso, teas, biscuits, jams and Nutella replenished daily -the location is quiet enough for a good night's sleep, yet still central to the city of Rome (very close to the Colosseum and 10-15 minutes walking to the nearest Metro station) -there are several excellent restaurants as well as banking services and convenience stores just down the street from the hotel -rooms are fairly spacious, modern, tastefully decorated and tidy -the hotel manager arranged for transportation to the airport, which was very much appreciated and provided us with all the information we needed to navigate our way through Rome It's difficult to find anything negative to say about Maison Colosseo, especially considering the very reasonable rates. However, here are a couple of things I thought could be improved: -the beds are a bit uncomfortable and quite squeaky; if you like a very firm mattress, it may be fine -it seemed damp and cold in the room (the air was heavy)and there was no way to adjust the heat

The staff were fantastic. They text me on arrival and helped me to the destination by explaining the best way to get to them and which transport services to use. They were friendly and helpful. They organised transport for us on different days and gave us guides too. The room was very clean and always had a good stock of snacks available at no extra fee. The lication was great for getting around Rome. I would recommend this guesthouse and if I were to return to Rome again I would be booking a room here.

The colosseum was a 5 minute walk from the hotel which was great. The bed was VERY hard and you could feel every spring. The bathroom was a little cramped for my liking. We got off to a rough start but the hotel staff seemed to be very friendly people. If you like the bed and breakfast feeling this is a good place, if you want privacy I'd look elsewhere.

Very close to walk to Colosseum. Maybe 4 Blocks. Hotel room is one room in an apartment on one level of an apartment building. 4 keys got us in. Cool to be able to walk to restaurants, subway stop, and ruins. Front desk wasn't really open/available like a regular hotel, but we didn't need them other than to check in. I felt like we had our own apt in a cool part of downtown Rome. WORTH the low price we paid.

A nice,small hotel only a few blocks from the Coliseum. It is essentially one floor within an apartment building. Staff is only present in the morning for a few hours. Bathrooms are nice and clearly recently updated. Only true complaint was that the air conditioning did not work at all. This made for uncomfortable sleeping conditions during our summer stay.

Super Cute, Great Location, Kind, Efficient Staff
OK, this is a 'find' and it feels like a secret place, which is good in Rome. You are given keys to the place, and this instantly makes you feel 'ownership'.[of course they have your passport info s this is not an invite to mischief!] A tiny 6 Room 'hotel' this was clean, fresh, stylish and if not roomy--it was well-priced [on special] super-sweet concierge Illiana is as helpful and as nice as she can possibly be. Around the corner is a fruit stand where you can get delicious offerings and there are a ton of cute places to eat. The Colosseum is close and yet not so close that you feel this to be a touristic neighborhood. It reminded me of Paris' 16th arrondissement with it's quiet streets and residential air. Great and safe at night for single tourists [female] and business travelers, I recommend it. No real 'breakfast' is avail but buy your own and put it in the little closet fridge.

Friendly, clean, convenient and affordable
It's a very small hotel. More of a set of appartments being lent out but everything was clean. The staff were very friendly. The room rates were reasonable and the location was convenient. If we go to Rome again, we will definitely stay here. Friendlines: We weren't the greatest guests - once we left our key in the room and once we bumped a cup of the table but the staff were still very friendly about it. Convenience: We spent two and a half days sight-seeing around central Rome and never once needed to use the Subway. There are some nice restaurants nearby and the staff are happy to recommend them. Once you know the way it is about a 20 ~ 25 minute walk to Termini Station. There is plenty of restaurants and a couple of large super markets along the way. Cleanlines: The room was tastfuly decorated and very clean.

Clean, well located but overpriced
Maison Colosseo is located short walk from Colosseum. It offers very clean and spacious rooms but its not really hotel and don't expect to get service as you would in hotels. No food or drinks are offered and no tea or coffee makers in room. It is located on the first floor of residential building and it its not signed apart on residential intercom. Sound isolation between the rooms is terrible and you can literally hear other people breathing. We were lucky to have quiet neighbours but I can imagine if we didn't. Bathrooms are very clean and modern. WiFi connection is free and offers good download speed. If you are coming by car there are few free bays in surrounding streets and with a bit of luck you could end up with free parking for the duration of your stay. Nearby restaurants are overpriced for what they offer. Overall clean, well located but potentially very noisy and definitely overpriced.
