8.2/10 Very Good! (278 reviews)
We chose the property on our return to Rome for travel home and its proximity to the airport. We were prepared to use the and cost taxis and bus but it’s a nightmare. On our return on the bus even after pushing the stop button, the driver just blew past the stop and we had to find a different way back to the hotel. There is absolutely nothing nearby. No restaurants or markets etc. I know you get what you pay for but be aware.

Good location and friendly staff. Although this didn’t bother me, it could be a bit noisy at night due to some night walkers on the street.

Although the hotel is a little far from downtown, be out of the crazy traffic of Rome is great. The staff is fantastic, and the restaurant is great. Great quality meals, decent price. I really enjoyed the stay in the Massini Garden Holden!!!

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Although the queue may appear long, it goes quickly and it is extremely spacious inside, with no sense of being crowded at all.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Visit later in the day and midweek as quieter.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Take the lift to to roof for views across Rome

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

Preorder entrance tickets, even then be prepared to queue. For hours.

2/5 - Disappointing

Verified traveller

Big queues to enter and pretty much a shuffling queue inside even though it was very late afternoon. All the side altars and statues curtained off, not allowed to sit down....if you’ve been before don’t go again because your memory will be spoiled.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

booked a guided tour beforehand so avoided the queues
