I don't understand how they can say that hotel bolivar is a 4 stars hotel. First of all the room was completely different from the pictures on their website. Room was small, in the double room the space was enough just for one person. We stayed 3 days and we never had hot water in the shower. Mattress was very... More

This place is in an excellent location and we found it to be of good value for money. The room was comfortable (small relative to US standards but larger than what I expected after seeing rooms in Paris). Our sliding door to the bathroom was not working smoothly but I expect that it will be fixed as I have mentioned... More

Do yourself a favour and find somewhere else in Rome. Not only was the room small and as ancient as the Colloseum itself, but the staff were most unhelpful. We had a bag stolen from the foyer but the staff were pathetic in providing any sort of assistance. We made numerous calls and returned to the hotel on several occasions... More

I highly recommenced Hotel Bolivar for the first class staff, prime location, breakfast, comfort and safety. Not only is the location prime...but the staff couldn't be better. The hotel staff were friendly, professional, kind and helpful. Whether you need directions to the nearest pharmacy, Trevi Fountain, or the best restaurants in Rome, the staff are exceptional. They are incredibly educated... More

Loved the Service. The Receptionist Angelo was extremely helpful on great places to eat nearby for the right prices. Excellent location! I loved this place and stayed for 10 days and was the best trip I have ever taken. Anytime I needed something there was always someone at service. laundry service was fast. Walking distance to everything you could ever... More

The fact that this is a 4 star establishment is a joke. Clearly I didn't get the memo to ask for one of the renovated rooms, but I'm guessing that that's why this place has such high ratings (although I didn't see any of them). Lets begin: Breakfast: Unless you like slimy mini hot dogs and bacon bits and stale... More

The Bolivar Hotel is a very nice hotel in an old but nice building very close to the Trevi fountain and Spanish steeps.They offer a good breakfast and the rooms are very comfortable. Would highly recommend anyone to stay here! Good value for money!

I was disappointed when we arrived at hotel bolivar as it had such good reviews. The website pictures do it a lot of justice. We were staying on the ground floor, the rooms are very small particularly on the upper levels. On the ground floor you can hear any conversation going on in the lobby. This hotel is rated a... More

The rooms are very small with not much room to move around at all. The decor was very dated and looked grubby, especially for a four-star rated hotel. The toilet didn't flush properly and there was often a smell of sewerage in the ground floor corridor. We also had some unwanted visitors in the form of ants, which some friends... More
