Good: 1. Very clean room and bathroom. 2.10 min maximum to walk to Blue Metro Station San Paolo and only 4 stations to Central Station Termini. Very close to old city. 3. The pool was for Free!!! 4. We stayed 8 nights. $150 for a night. This is cheap for such a hotel in Rome. 5. Hotel staff were very... more

This hotel was clean but breakfast was a little disappointing, we had to wait for more cakes, cheese and ham. We were with Riviera Travel and were told we could not eat in the room where the Italians ate for breakfast. After a rather heated discussion, we were eventually allowed to! We reported this to reception who seemed surprised and... more

We stayed for three nights at Hotel Oly earlier this month. Whilst the rooms etc were fine we were dismayed to be told that we would have to pay 20Euros each per day if we wanted to use the pool!!!! I've never heard of such a thing - all we wanted was a quick swim after busy and hot days... more

We stayed at The Oly Hotel for 6 nights in September and would really struggle to find anything to fault it on. The room was well decorated and very clean, with useful welcome packs (toilletries, sewing kit etc) in the bathroom. The safe (hidden away in the wardrobe) was free to use which was surprising. The bedding was literally changed... more

Stayed 3 nights as part of Cities of Italy with Riviera Travel. Room and facilities perfectly adequate but air con did not seem to be effective. Breakfast buffet rather disappointing - very watery juice and only tinned fruit. Coffee via a machine resulted in queues. Opted for a set meal in hotel on first night - silver service of antipasta/pasta/meat/dessert... more

Some people seem very hard to please. The breakfast was more than ample - certainly a good deal better than the cake people seem to have become fixated on. One has to expect things to be different away from home. The room was scrupulously clean, well decorated and the whole hotel was non-smoking. I agree that the receptionist was a... more

There were a few things wrong with this hotel such as a snooty receptionist and no air conditioning ( it was quite warm in April although the Italians did not think so!). However, it was clean,we had a good sized room, and a well equipped bathroom, there was plenty of variation at breakfast - fruit, cereal, cheese, ham, cakes etc... more

We stayed at the Hotel Oly for 4 nights with our 13 month old son. It served as a good base for many of the tourist sights and was less than 10 mins walk to the nearest metro station. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was adequate but once we had a travel cot added in the space... more

I was traveling solo and on a budget. For the price of the stay, I was very pleasantly surprised. I do not speak Italian. I do not know my way around Italy. The hotel staff made my trip one of the best ever. I cannot say enough about the hospitality of Hotel Oly's employees. Every question asked and every request... more
