Bed & Breakfast Torre Clementina - Fiumicino

5.0

people not ready to welcome international business travelers not credit card,not internet, no towel in the bathroom,knocking at my door at 10;30 pm to claim an immediate cash payment because there will not be any employee for the check out on the next morning place difficult to find if they make an effort on service, it is a correct overnight stop to fly the next day from Fumicino airport

Location was great--by the marina--lots of restaurants around. Room-#5-was very spacious and bathroom had a jacuzzi and was huge. Shuttle from the airport was 10 euros not 5 but don't know if that was because there was 2 of us. Some of the staff do not speak English so be sure to confirm taxi arrangements/check out ahead of time. Nice balconies-one attached to our room and one off the kitchen--to have breakfast or hang out. Room was air-conditioned. As we had an early morning flight took a taxi to the airport--cost 25 euros. Local bus access to Ostia Antica and the Lido.

Clean, tidy and quiet accomodation. It was important to us to have an airport shuttle service but were told in evening before departure that they could not supply this so early on a Sunday morning--8.30!They booked a taxi for us but that was 4times the shuttle price.However it did arrive on time which was the main thing. Shower was smallish but the right-angled doors on it were only meant for very slim people to get through! There was no hot water in the morning. Breakfast was very basic but sufficient. We were welcomed by a boy who neither understood nor spoke English. Later in evening the person on duty did. Overall it was ok. I think the cleanliness of corridors and room brings the points up, cannot fault them there!

The B&B is located two flights up (no elevator/lift). Might be a problem for some visitors.

Very discreet location, and in some ways unobtrusive, but it was probably better for that. The area is full of good restaurants and it seems that the locals come out in force to patronise them - therefore the quality and cost of the food speaks for itself.

6.1

next to the piers so very relaxed setting-mainly neighborhoods and small eateries. call the B&b from the airport -5 min away and they will pick you up for 10Euros. clean,basic room no thrills but good if you are flying out and just need a room for the night. nice people.

The Torre Clementina B&B was a decent place to stay. The remodel is mostly complete, though note that the rooms are on the 3rd floor, so you'll have to lug your bags up two flights of stairs. We chose it because of its airport shuttle and convenient location to Leonardo da Vinci airport. HOWEVER, we did not know by the information provided on their website or on Venere that the shuttle started at 9 AM (no good when we had to leave at 5:30 AM to get to the airport - Taxis cost us between 15 and 20 euro), breakfast at 7 AM (again, no good for us), and few employees spoke English. Fiumicino, being off the beaten tourist path, does not cater like Rome to English-speakers. With restaurants being closed for dinner on Monday, we had to resort to pantomining and pidgeon Italian to get food at a little street-side cafe. Overall, it was an interesting experience, but we'll stay in Rome and take the Express in if we have similar travel arrangments in the future.

they didn't have the triple room available when we arrived, but they moved us into an apartment which was probably better. we were only there for one night but the place itself was nice. as far as location, we chose it because it is near the airport and we arrived late night, but otherwise i didn't like the location.

5.4

the lack of english for the pick up was a bit of a problem but eventually we got there. The rooms were adequate but not as shown on the website. We got 2 small singles and all other pictures show kinge size beds. But the family were freindly and helped as best they could

7.8

Room was clean and nice. I chose Torre Clementina due to closeness to airport since we had early morning flight. Cannot use shuttle before 9 am. Taxi was 20 euros each way. Staff was helpful in getting taxi for 4:30 am.

First time at this hotel;situated in front of the Tiber where it meets the sea. Nice boardwalk along it to take walks. Hotel is not easy to find and not well enough visually indicated. We had to go to the drugstore nearby to get help to find it. There are two long flights of step to get to the actual hotel reception/rooms so not recommended for those with heavy luggages. It looks like there are thieves around as the front door looks like a vault door and all windows are heavily locked so dont leave anything visible in your car. However, we never felt threathened in any way. You can park free in the front parking alongside the pier/boardwalk and it is 15 min. max to the Fiumicino airport. Although close, airliners don't seem to fly overhead so there was no jetliners noise while we were there. Several restaurants nearby at very reasonable price and a cafe nearby. Very good continental breakfast included in a familial kitchen surrounding..quite nice.Its closeness to the airport makes it ideal when you have, as we did, to return your car before flying back home.

This is not a place I would stay again. The hallway and common areas reeked of cigarette smoke. We could hear doors opening and closing late and very early. The breakfast pastries were packaged despite a kitchen area for cooking and a bar a few steps out the front door that had a fresh assortment. The shuttle price was double what the web page said. The phone number in the confirmation email was wrong (or just wasn't answered for an hour) when we needed the shuttle.
