Short 5-10 min. walk to Vatican and metro station, particularly good for early morning visit to the Vatican museum, which could be long line from 8am. The room was nice and clean, bathroom was spacious but drainage may blocked during shower. Nice breakfast buffet, including bread, cold meat, egg, cereal, cake, juice, milk, coffee etc. The staff were kind and... more

This is a lovely hotel within walking distance to the vatican and metro station. The neighbourhood is safe and offers a very unique italian stay. Markets are only 50 metres away as well as a number of fantastic cafes and shops. ideal place to stay if you dont want to be surrounded by tourists and enjoy what rome has to... more

It's hard to understand how other people could have had a positive experience here. The hotel is in mediocre condition: no place to secure your luggage if you arrive before check-in, staff was extremely unorganized (they didn't even ask for our IDs when we checked in), poor excuse for a "breakfast", maid service ignored the "Do Not Disturb" sign on... more

My son and I spent 4 nights at this hotel. Hotel room was very small, to include the shower, had issues flushing the toilet, however the room was cleaned every day. The hotel location was pretty much walking distance to almost all of the sites, which was good and there was also bus 81 nearby if you did not feel... more

The Grand Olympic - Aurem is a clean, family-friendly hotel located just a short walk from the Vatican and the Ottaviano Metro stop. The staff were very kind and helpful and the rooms and bathrooms were spacious and clean. For budget travellers (like me), I particularly liked the fresh meat and produce market located less than 75 meters from the... more

This hotel had a GREAT location and great air conditioning (very important for the summer)! I was a little disappointed that they didn't have water at breakfast, but other than that their selection was a typical continental breakfast. more

Good location. Nice and clean rooms, close to everywhere just walking. Good breakfast: Very recommended for trips where you need a room just to rest in. more

I stayed at the Grand Olympic for 4 nights in June. The front desk staff and cleaning staff were very friendly. The front desk was helpful. I was with a group of 3 couples, 1 room had a broken shower that was reported and was fixed the next day. This hotel is in a great location if you want to... more

Good location and safe area, but area closes up early and not much to do in the surrounding area once the Vatican is closed. Mini bar was warm and told management, they said that it would be tended to, but they never did. Breakfast was absolutely terrible, and not worth hanging around for. Furnishings very old and air conditioning not... more
