This 3 star hotel should have zero stars - dirty, run down and our room smelled like a sewer. I asked for a room change - it stank of cigarette smoke so we stayed in the sewer. The front desk staff just gave us a blank stare. The location was good - walking distance to central rome - but I... more

My husband and I had a 2 night stay at the Sistina and we would never stay there again. We cannot believe that they claim to be a 4 star hotel, 2 star is probably more like it. The hotel is old world which is lovely but it is very run down, in immediate need of TLC. The constant smell... more

Stayed in this hotel for one week in January - very pleasant stay. The staff was professional, friendly and helpful. The room was a bit on the small side, but clean and with a large tiled bathroom. Walls seemed rather thin, you could hear the drains running in the room next door, but fortunately this hotel attracts a "calm", quiet... more

I am very disappointed with the stay in this hotel. Air conditioning not functioning, unproffessional staff and as you walked from reception to lift-there was a damp odour. Hotel is not a four star. more

This was our first visit to Rome and the Hotel Sistina couldn't have been a better choice. Centrally located and within easy reach of all the sights. Friendly and helpful staff-who appreciated our efforts with their language. Rooms a bit tired but clean.Bed was comfortable and the bathroom really quite luxurious.Plenty of choice at breakfast. Would we book again?-yes. more

Rooms were a bit dated but the Bathroom was HUGE and lovely ! I would recommend this hotel due to its great location. Ideal... more

Have just spent 4 nights here and could not have been more pleased. From the way my early email queries were answered to the very last transfer arrangement, everything was handled in a friendly, efficient and caring manner. I felt that the management really wanted us to have a good holiday.. and we did...The location, near the Spanish Steps, was... more

The Sistina wasn't our first choice, but we'd definitely go back. It's small and very friendly, brilliantly central and a laid-back place to stay. The rooms are beautifully old-fashioned, none of your inpersonal, formica, where-am-I-because-all-these-hotel-rooms-are-exactly-the same rubbish. Comfy beds and a well-stocked minibar plus air conditioning made our stay a pleasure. The staff were helpful and friendly and the buffet... more

Our two nights at the Sistina Hotel were among the longest nights of my life. Rome was our last stop on a 3-city tour of Italy, and we had stayed at a 4-star hotel in each city we visited. Each hotel was great, except the Sistina. We couldn't believe that it was considered a "4-star" hotel. There was only one... more
