The hostel is located around 20 minutes from Termini station. Nearest bus stop is right by the entrance to the hostel, and it takes around 7-10 minutes to get to Termini. If you prefer subway, it takes up to 10 minutes to walk to Policlinico or Bologna metro stations. The rooms are quite simple, bathrooms could be cleaner, but in... More

We stayed here for two nights in October. While it is a bit far out of the centre of Rome it is within 10 minutes walk to two metro stations and also has a bus stop handy. We were of the impression that we had booked a women's only room but when we arrived we were in a mixed dorm.... More

Though a bit far from Roma Termini station, but the bus 310 stop 'Ippocrito' is just in front of it and nearest metro station 'Bologna' is just 7-10 minutes away. The hotel stuff (specifically the man who is in charge in the morning) advised and even made a plan of visiting important locations. They provide milk, fruit juice, coffee, tea,... More

It is easy to get anywhere from this location via bus or metro. The staff was helpful in recommending places to eat and provided a city map and assistance. Rooms were clean and showers adequate.

Simple and quiet accomodation up by the University. It was a little removed from the downtown centre but faily easy to access from the Metro. Staff were friendly and helpful. They had a kitchen, but I really didn't end up using it. The only problem is that I found their lockers to be a bit small - only large enough... More

Overall I really enjoyed staying at the Rome CIty Hostel. It's a really small place, I believe there are only 5 or 6 dorms. We stayed in a 6 bed dorm with bathroom. Dorm was average sized, bathroom was clean and overall it was comfortable. The staff were very friendly, and helped with any questions plus took the time to... More

Nice little hostel located about 15-20 min walk from Termini station and about 45 minute walk from the Colosseum if you don't feel like taking the metro just around the corner. Friendly staff that will answer any of your questions with a smile and pretty comfortable beds (if you don't mind the occassional squeak from your neighbor). Features rooms with... More
