Really welcoming property, kind staff. Rooms exactly as described and pictured. Very clean rooms with coffee machine etc. would recommend this hotel as felt very safe.
Staff was great. However it’s evident that they are trying to grow their hotel as there is a lot of construction and some unfinished areas. The walls are thin as we could hear conversations in the common areas while in our room.
Full of character. But has modern rooms. Staff friendly, helpful, personality. Area full of interesting local colour, history and quiet churches when the crowd gets too much. And picked because close to termini. Love roma.

The room is newly renovated and clean. But the main problem is the building got power failure twice during our stay and really impacting.
This place was a pleasant surprise!! It’s a fully renovated bedroom in an old building. Service at front desk was friendly and professional. Only one block from the train station. Although the area is not the nicest we felt safe and had no problems.
A very nice room and friendly staff that really cares about their guests. Very clean and well-maintained. Located in the center of Rome, close to Termini station - this is a huge advantage if you want to explore Rome and other cities by train, bus and subway. There are a few good restaurants and coffee shops right outside the hotel, so if you are lazy, you can eat just a few steps away. The street outside is not too noisy and we vere feeling safe there as well. I have no problem to recommend Relais Marco Polo to other guests! Go for it, you won't regret!
Such a quaint boutique hotel super close to the Termini. The staff was exquisite! So helpful and kind! David was so happy to help me upon checkout with a broken suitcase I needed to get rid of, letting me checkout late, offering to hold my luggage if I needed, all with a smile. Fantastic service. The only downside was the thin walls. I could hear everything outside my room, but I would stay again in a heartbeat and just buy ear plugs : )

Location was absolutely amazing, at just 4 minutes walking distance from the Termini, it was super convenient. The room itself was really beautiful, extremely clean and spacious enough. There was a Nespresso machine for the first coffee of the day which was nice to have. The bed and pillows were super comfortable and super clean. Unfortunately this is where the positive points are ending. The hotel seemed to have undergone renovations recently, and it's a shame it was not done properly. The rice paper thin walls were half the reason why we were not able to rest at all. You can hear everything happening in the corridor and in the adjacent rooms, from people doing their "number two", to people actually fu**ing, to the maintenance staff starting their disrespectful fanfare before 6 in the morning, this is definitely not a place you will be able to sleep even with the best earplugs out there. To add insult to injury, there was no air conditioning, or at least, it was a "centrally" controlled one which is impossible to get under 25 C in the room. We were lucky it was not as hot as it's usually in Roma at this time of year.Other than that there was one of those extremely low quality chinese fridge which was not working, leading us to loose some food. Also the drain in the shower was completely clogged, you cannot let the shower run for more than 1-2 minutes at a time otherwise it will overflow on the floor, you have to wait for the drain to swallow very slowly before restarting it.
The hotel was bright, quiet and very clean.
The staff were very helpful at all times,
Superb location to get around everywhere in Rome
We had an excellent stay
Thank you
Great place to stay, newely renovated and very friendly and helpful staff. Also located perfectly close to the main Rome train station for easy access for travellers.
The hotel room and location were excellent, very close to main metro, bus and train station so can easily visit everywhere. We did not try the food so cannot comment and did not see what the other rooms were like. I managed to get the family room which was the largest and recently refurbised. Be aware, the vacinity although great location is very dirty and lots of people trying to sell you things. We found a great restaurant not far away Santa Maria Osteria Romana all all staff are Italian, food was fantastic and very friendly.
For their renovated rooms, I would recommend the hotel. It is about 150m from Termini and is accepting late arrivals. Our flight was delayed and all in all we arrived at 22:45. It is quiet but not fully sound proof. There are restaurants, small market and coffee shop right by the entrance of the building.

They were under construction and did not advise us. We would never have booked, if we had known.

Disappointed that in our 1st stay we could request an iron and ironing board and take it to our room to iron and a week later in our 2nd stay we had to iron in the reception hallway to iron as we were told we can't iron in the room. And the elevator seems like a safety hazard. We understand it is an old building but the elevator must be upgraded. And no telephone in the room to call the reception.
The room was clean and big for a family of 5. There was construction in the building that started at 7am. On our 2nd day the hotel lost power and couldn’t tell us when it would be restored. Then they lost water. The front desk was not helpful and would just ignore our questions when we were trying to find out what was going on. They offered to refund us but were not helpful in helping us find alternative accommodations. When we tried to get the refund through Expedia, the hotel refused. They didn’t offer bottled water or flashlights for trying to navigate the dark stairwell. They even made a joke about the water running out. It was horrible. The location was good but I would not recommend to anyone. Avoid at all costs
