Room Mate Collection Mia, Rome Colosseum

Best place for value

The ac , service , beds were all amazing You may 1st walk in and underestimate the place based on a very ok lobby - but the service , rooms , especially the people at the desk at night Sooo nice and welcoming!!! Breakfast was ok - nothing special , they may want to consider an omelet chef

Perfect location for the Colosseum and Forum. Easy access to the Metro to reach other areas like the Vatican. Excellent nearby restaurants, which are good value, even those adjacent to the sites, that was a surprise! The hotel is great, our executive room was marvellous, spacious, clean and importantly quiet. Effective blackout curtains and air con. In room safe was excellent and sturdy. Breakfast was generous and all encompassing of any taste. You can look at the Colosseum from the roof top terraced area if wished whilst eating, or sit in air conditioned comfort if you prefer. Main negative was the coffee at breakfast was a big disappointment as it was machine delivered, tasted powdery with an after taste and slightly burnt too (this is Italy, so a big let down). We are big coffee folk, so this was a miss for us. Other niggles were the en suite bathroom, which had an excellent big shower but small bathroom entry leading to that, odd design and felt cluttered and small as a result. The room mini bar was fully stocked but very expensive, and the stock left little space to your own purchases (a 24hr Carrefour is just around the corner). Items were present in the room that were not on the menu and it was unclear what was 'free' and what was chargeable. Overall a great hotel, slightly on the expensive side per night but competitive for the area.

The breakfast buffet was outstanding. We also loved hanging out on the rooftop bar in the evenings, enjoying a cocktail. The convenience of the location (near the Colesseum) worked well for us. Overall, we felt the hotel was very comfortable and had a great atmosphere.
