It's a good hotel if you don't want to afford high prices and search for a good location. We stayed in a four people room, that had 2 big beds. more

I'm really surprised at a lot of these reviews - what do you expect for a 2* hotel?! It's quite possible we were just lucky with the room but during the 5 days we stayed there we were really happy with our choice. It's in an excellent position, within walking distance of all the main attrcations and the central station.... more

Hotel Clarin was alright. It was 30-minute walk from the Roma Termini Station. It's on the lane parallel to Via Nazionale where you can get easy access to buses, metros and eatery places. Room was clean, so were the sheets. Fresh towels everyday. Breakfast was simple croissant, cereal and coffee. The drawback was that the hotel was on the second... more

I booked a room there for two nights over 4th of July weekend. I ended up cancelling that reservation the same day. The hotel decided to wait EIGHT DAYS (THEIR COMPUTER WAS SUPPOSEDLY DOWN FOR THOSE EIGHT DAYS) before contacting me to tell me that I had booked this room through another website (which I did not) and that I... more

We went with our 2 children (girls 4 & 2). The staff were great, the rooms were basic (it is 2 star... more

We were recommended this hotel by the Flight Centre (based on a glowing report by a couple who had just returned from a break at this hotel!). On arriving it was hard to believe that this was not a dirty brothel. The carpets were very dirty and a relic of the 1970's, the room was an adequate size however the... more

We stayed there for 6 nights in late July 2004. On arrival, the lift did not work and when had to carry our luggage up several flights of stairs. We asked the night manager if the lift ever worked and he said that it didnt. He was unresponsive and at first seemingly rude. We found out the next morning that... more
