Staff was friendly and helpful. Rooms were modern and stylish. We found a wonderful restaurant right down the street. Centrally located to walk to Trevi fountain and the Spanish steps. The Tremini Terminal is a bit over a mile away where they also have shopping and a nice food court.

Rooms are too small.The restaurant is small and dark. The hotel does not have a lobby area. Our flight arrived early, it was raining and we did not have a place stay until our room was available. It is closed to Repubblica and Termini station, but a little far from all the touristic places.

Perfect room for the weekend stay walking distance to most and the room was really clean. The only thing that let it down a bit on the last day there was a strange smell coming from the drain in the shower. Not that it was worth mentioning as we were leaving. Staff were really friendly and helpful would definitely book again

The location is really nice. Close to Termini subway station, walkable distance from fountain Trevi and piazza Venice, also Spanish Steps. Staff are so friendly and welcoming. Food is delicious and big selection of cookies and sweets. coffee is fantastic and every morning you can drink natural fruit juice. The main inconvenience is the elevator. It’s tiny and only 2 person can fit if you don’t squeeze yourself. Thanks for your friendly welcome and wonderful staff.

Excellent Stay at The Guardian Hotel, Rome 🇮🇹🍷 I recently had the pleasure of staying at The Guardian Hotel in Rome, and I can’t recommend it enough! From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming, professional, and always ready to assist with recommendations and directions. The hotel itself is stylish and modern, with clean, well-appointed rooms that offer a comfortable retreat after a long day of exploring the city. The beds were exceptionally comfortable, and the air conditioning worked perfectly😁 One of the highlights of our stay was the delicious breakfast buffet, featuring fresh pastries, eggs, fruit, and great coffee—perfect for fueling up before a day of sightseeing. The location was also fantastic—just a short walk to Termini Station, making it easy to reach all the major attractions, yet quiet enough for a restful night’s sleep. Overall, The Guardian Hotel offers great value, excellent service, and a fantastic location. I would definitely stay here again on my next visit to Rome!

Overall a good stay and a nice hotel. Breakfast was good however the area to get food was small and too compact. Rooms nice and always cleaned very well. Only problem we encountered was noise, 1 from air con and from the room above on 2 out of the 4 nights we stayed which was very frustrating and had to call reception 4 times. Good restaurants around area.
