About

Colosseo 28 - Rome

Colosseo 28 sits in Rione Monti, one of Rome's oldest neighbourhoods, where the streets mix bohemian energy with ancient landmarks. It's a 0.8 km walk to the Colosseum, and the area's hills – Quirinale, Viminale and Esquilino – frame the local scene. This 3-star property keeps things straightforward: functional rooms, a rooftop, and a self-service breakfast to start the day.

The hotel is a practical base for exploring the city. Public transport is close, with the underground conveniently nearby, and many of Rome's historic sites are within walking distance. The rooms come with thoughtful touches like a safe, mini-bar, tea and coffee facilities, and free Wi-Fi. Staff, particularly a guest-named Serena, are frequently praised for being friendly and offering useful sightseeing tips.

“Great spot with a Colosseum view, ideal for trekkers and friends. The 3-bedroom apartment was well-organised and clean – surprisingly quiet despite the busy street. Self-service breakfast had good variety, and the staff were helpful, especially Serena, who gave great tips for getting around. Close to public transport and ancient ruins, secure and quiet.”

Staff were friendly and attentive, making us feel welcome. Rooms were clean and tidy, fresh towels on the beds. Breakfast was a nice touch, though it could use more options like butter or jam for bread.”
