Santa Maria d'Aracoeli

A very nice hotel , located right by the villa Torlonia ( a very stunning park to walk around) the area feels generally safe and the hotel is secure and gated. On arrival we was greeted by a lovely reception lady who was very helpful and prepared us for our stay ahead and explained everything we needed to know. The rooms were lovely , double room nice and spacious , beds were very comfy , 2 big large wardrobes a safe , mini bar , hair dryer etc the staff were helpful and cleaned rooms to high standard each day Breakfast was nice on the 4th floor which has a terrrace overlooking the park which is stunning - the breakfast selection was good a classics continental breakie - toast, crossiants, hams , cheeses , bread , variety of cake selections, fresh fruit , juices , hot drinks, the staff were also very lovely and greeted us each morning. The hotel is near public transport metro line Bologna which is roughly 5 min walk which takes you to where main sites are. We used the hop on // hop off buses which it takes around 20mins to walk to Termini Station walk through to the other side where you will find stop 1 for this service. If you like walking most sites from the hotel are 40 mins . Overall we had a very pleasant stay here and all the staff were welcoming and friendly- not sure why there’s negative reviews nothing but positives from us so thank you hotel d’elle civette

The hotel was very convenient for the Vatican. The SIT coach from the airport stopped close by. We managed to walk everywhere from the hotel, rather than using public transport. Buffet breakfast was great. The only downside from my perspective was the lack of tea/coffee making facilities in the room.

Beautiful hotel. Friendly helpful staff, great breakfast. Comfortable bed and bedding. Would stay again.
