About

Roman Residence

Roman Residence is a compact property set within a larger building near Rome's main train station.

The rooms are modern and practical, with air conditioning, soundproofing, tea and coffee facilities, a mini-bar, and some extras such as bathrobes and bidets.

Service is the hotel's other pillar: the staff score 9.6, and review after review mentions helpful, kind hosts who offer route advice and sightseeing tips.

Worth weighing

  • Check-in ends at 23:59 — Arrivals are only accepted between 12:00 and 23:59, so late-night arrivals need to plan ahead.

“Roman Residence exceeded my expectations. It was clean and felt brand new, within walking distance of the Colosseum and the central train station. The furnishings were comfortable, the bathroom was fully modernised, and even the windows were new. The room safe was handy, and the host was gracious and thoughtful, checking we knew where we were going and suggesting what to see during our short visit. A warm thank you to him.”
