Excellent hotel with good service, friendly staff, clean close to metro. The only problem is that itbis a little far from the center of the city, we could not use metro much and we had to take taxi most of the time.

Beat place to stay in Rome
Convenient location -- quiet, green area, outside of touristy center, but convenient to get to all the attractions. Metro station 2 blicks from the hotel. Tasty breakfast with good variety of food. Comfortable beds. Just one little inconvenience for us -- no coffee maker in the room...but we asked for kettle (water boiler) and were able to enjoy cup of coffee on the room early morning before breakfast. And complimentary prosecco for my birthday!👍❤

This was my second stay at this hotel. The first time it was great, the second time... Not so. The AC didn't work and the room wasn't properly cleaned (lots of dust). So the quality is unequal. But the wifi is fast, staff friendly, and breakfast great. Good value for money

Very good day 3 day trip to Hotel dei Congressi!
This was a business trip to a conference in an adjacent building and so was very convenient. However the district is very business like and not suitable for a vacation. The accommodation was very good, clean and fresh - the breakfast was more than acceptable but not stunning. The links to the city via the metro were good with the stop less than five minutes away. Staff and especially concierge were excellent. Only complaint was that there were no tea/coffee facilities in the room. Other than that - a very good experience in a nice hotel.

Hotel dei Congressi.
The hotel is fine, although a room I stayed small one, people friendly, some restaurants in the vicinity. It's about 20 min from downtown by metro, the nearest M station is only a couple of minutes in walking distance from the hotel. I'm fully satisfied after staying in that hotel.

Disliked: Room comfort
Small lobby, noisy as shut AC off in rooms.
AC was not producing cold air, the room temp was 26C, which is 79F. Upon questions it was said that management during this season saves power, so in October the fan is on, but the AC is off. After insisting that someone should come to the room, the technician opened the room's large glass windows for fresh air to cool the room. It brought some temp down, but the noise was unbearable, they finally turned AC on. This should have been done in the first place. Also last minute upon checkout they couldn't print the receipt as the computer they say should charge for additional tax, but was not doing it. So, after long wait they decided to hand write the additional tax that the computer was not charging and let me go to waiting taxi to catch the flight.

Great Location, Tired Hotel, Pathetic Breakfast
Great location right besides the new Rome Convention Center (the cloud), but the hotel is tired and dated, needs renovations. The breakfast is pathetic and the restaurant 2 stars at best. Not the friendliest staff in Rome. Would only stay here as a very last ditch because its close to the convention center and the surrounding area is adequate.

bad experience
Stay in a family room for 4 pax. The room was small. From the evaluation plan, understand that the room was just a little bigger than it's normal room. Not enough space to house four beds. The reception was poor. Waited 20 minutes to check in cause the front desk was talking to 2 other guest and can't be bother about others waiting.

Ideal Location for Lake
The hotel was an excellent location for us to watch the European Dragon Boating Championships on the lake, which our son was competing in. The restaurant was very good (if a little expensive!). Be aware that if you want to eat out that all the local restaurants/cafe's are shut on a Sunday evening.
Response from Lorenzo Figura on 9 Aug 2016
Dear Pam, thank you for the good review, and the kind words about Hotel dei Congressi. During the dragon boat event we experienced a peak in the number of Guests that explains, but does not excuse, the problems you experienced during the breakfast. I have discussed it with the restaurant manager, se that we can speed up the refill. Thanks again for your nice review, I hope you enjoyed your tip to Italy! Cordially Lorenzo Figura Hotel Manager

Well looked after hotel at reasonable cost
The staff were helpful and the room comfortable although not that large. The hotel was well looked after and there was free WiFi. Good selection at breakfast although the bacon and scrambled eggs were not kept hot. Nice restaurant with good value meals. Not the most attractive area of Rome with major building work taking place but convenient for Metro and buses.

Business hotel, quiet and classy
If you are after the sights of central Rome this hotel is not for you as it is located in the Southern business district of EUR. However, if you need to work in that area, as I did, it's prefect. Nice and quiet, and with a great breakfast. I am on my second visit in a year, and I would definitely recommend it, although there are no tea or coffee making facilities in the room (a reasonably-priced bar and a restaurant are on the ground floor).

Great hotel
The hotel is close to subway station and it takes about 25 minutes from Roma Termini using subway line. The staff was very friendly, the free breakfast was good. Like everyone metioned before, the wifi is bad in some rooms. Mine was bad. They installed router every 2 rooms at my floor to improve it, but it was not doing much. I had good connection on my last night, so I guess they finally changed something. Overall very good hotel.
Response from Lorenzo Figura Hotel Manager on 4 May 2016
Dear Guest, thanks for giving us full score even though the wifi was not very functonal. Unfortunately the review is anonymous and we did not receive any complaint at the front desk. As we do not know the room number we cannot do anyhting to improve the signal! Please do not hesistate to complain directly to us if things do not work: you paid for your room and we will be able to find the solution you deserve in most cases. Thank you again for your very positive review, Cordially Lorenzo Figura Hotel Manager

Pleasant backwater hotel with excellent restaurant
But, it's actually an easily accessible backwater from central Rome. About 30 minutes walk and metro to the Colosseum for example. Would be little more to and from Termini main station.The walk to the hotel is about 10 minutes with a modest number of steps up from the metro. Being in a backwater makes the Congressi economical ... and quiet, unlike most central Rome hotels. I discovered the Congressi when visiting my company's office not far away, and returned for a cheap holiday mainly because I do very much like the restaurant, La Glorietta. Roman and other Italian staples done perfectly; a decently wide-ranging wine list, modestly priced enough to order a whole bottle even if one doesn't drink it all; attentive service; and a warm atmosphere. The EUR district is appealingly but not excessively run down, its triumphal architecture still handsome, yet with a domestic feel. And indeed, this dream suburb conceived by Mussolini has matured into an understandably quite popular place to live for middle income people. Feels very safe - all you see are ordinary local citizens going about their business. Rooms are fine, fairly modern, with small but well decorated bathrooms or shower rooms.

Only a Metro ride from downtown
Limited selection of restaurants in the area. However, the Metro is only a shot walk away, and downtown Rome has everything you can expect.

Nice and comfortable
5 minutes to get to the nearest underground station, which brings you in the center of Rome within 20 minutes.
