The location is basically the only good thing about this hotel. Lots of shopping, cafes & grocery store on the same street. There's a McDonalds right next door. That's where we had breakfast mostly since the hotel's looked gross. The room was a decent size with a nice little balcony. There was an awful smell coming from the bathroom... it... more

I'm glad I didn't read all these horrible reviews before my trip to Rome or we wouldn't have stayed here. We arrived in Rome with a list of hotels and no reservations. After walking around past numerous hotels that were either sold out or over 200 euros, we stumbled on Hotel Republica. We asked to see the room before accepting... more

While on a school trip my daughter and her friends left for dinner and cameras and ipods worth over 2500 were stolen from their locked room. The staff was unresponsive.

Booked through cheaptickets as a last resort because all our other hotel picks were full - started reading the horror stories about this hotel and got really scared... This hotel wasn't that bad! Granted we went in with low expectations, we found the location was great and we weren't bit by bed bugs. This hotel isn't a 5 star and... more

- I as well was on the group trip and all of this is true. The stolen items from a room that locked was the worst thing that happened and I was appalled at the response from the people at reception. - The elevator was extremely old and could only hold one person with luggage, so it takes a while... more

I also was part of the group who had possessions stolen from their room during their stay at this hotel. The staff there was unresponsive until the police arrived. Only then did the hotel take the break in as somewhat serious. The rooms were, to say the least, spartan and lacking in most areas. The showers either scalded you or... more

First of all NEVER EVER stay here if you want to keep your valuables. I went with a school group and $4000 worth of cameras and Ipods were stolen from our rooms. We left them there for ONE HOUR while we grabbed a bite to eat , and when we came back they were gone. The front desk LAUGHED and... more

Me and my wife was in Rome for the first time and was looking for a averrage hotel to a low cost. (We believe strongly In Rome is not the hotel the most importent). Repubblica Hotel is sentral, nice price and very good in every way.......The staff was polite, ordinary breakfast with bread, ham, jelly, coffy, tea, juice and some... more
