Excellent value for Rome, modern accomodations, very helpful staff, excellent breakfast

8.6

We enjoyed our stay in this hotel. It is very clean with lots of space in the room.

9.8

We had a lovely stay here in May and really made our first stay in Rome a time to remember. The area was not too great for facilities and a bit too far out of the city but we would consider staying here again.

8.0

This was a great hotel. It felt like a safe neighbourhood, far enough from tourist sites so that you don't have huge crowds and noise but close enough by metro/bus. The hotel certainly met our expectations.

8.5

very friendly, helpful sraff. especially, cristiano, valerio and andrea.

9.4

The Family room was very spacious, the staff excellent. The location in Rome is great for Metro links. We even used a Taxi from the door of the hotel to the Trevi fountain for €9 (Two Parents and two kids). The surrounding area seems a bit drab but is in no way threatening and the local bars/restaurants were excellent value, probably because it's a University Area. Our two young children (2+4) particularly enjoyed the toys in the restaurant/bar area. Next time we are staying in Rome we will be back.

8.7

Very nice hotel but a little far from the Termini. Bus 310 will take you very close but if you have a lot of luggage a crowded bus can be a problem. Overall I would stay there again

8.5

The Hotel is five minutes walking distance from "Policlinico" subway station. I booked a family room with two double bed. Very quite surroundings but notice I was there during the weekend. Friendly employees and good breakfast, the breakfast room is not very large so may be you have to wait a while to have your table. Highly recommended hotel.

3.0

room was very small!if you see the pictures on site it is a huge difference with reality... The beds where very uncomfortable. there was a balcony but did not look very save to sit on. we were picked up from the airport by a hotel driver,and the driver asked us more money then the amount we agreed on with the hotel; when I mentioned this to the receptionist he said something like 'o, not nice of him' and that was it...which was dissapointing. overall not a hotel we would like to go back to, sorry to say. There is no such thing as an hotel bar or somewhere in the evening to sit and have a drink. In the area of the hotel everything closes at 8pm. When we asked for a nice restaurant in the area the receprionists sends EVEYONE in the hotel to the same restaurant.

7.7

Not so simple to find place for car. Hotel price about 80€. Expensive only if we not consider we are in one of the best city in the world. The tube is 10 minutes fast walking. Not less

7.1

Enjoyable Easter break. Hotel was pretty well as described though a little bit further out that I envisaged. Only blot on the trip was using Tickitaly to arrange a tour of the Vatican - disaster. Avoid these people at all cost

9.2

The overall stay at Best Western Globus was an excellent one! The hotel room was always clean and welcoming, with candies on our pillows every day. We had a family room that was quite roomy i.e. the layout of the room is spacious - bunk beds for our daughters and a king/queen size bed. Lots of space! We also had free wireless internet access and the free mini bar was refilled each day. We spent 6 nights here and took the metro to all the major sites. On leaving the hotel you can make a left and continue one block to take Tram 19 or bus 3 to the nearest metro. If not, you can walk to the metro (Policlinico) - its roughly a 7-10 minutes walk. We have never waited more than 3 minutes for a tram or bus!!. We had the Roma Pass which gave us access to all modes of transportation. Breakfast was quite ample and good - just like what other reviewers have already noted. At Termini Station there is a supermarket and lots of restaurants are available there - its only 2 metro stops from the Policlinico metro. Construction was taking place at the hotel during our stay, but we were never bothered by it. We highly recommend this hotel and would definitely return here.

I was delighted with my stay in the Globus Tulip. The staff were excellent,efficient, friendly. I had the misfortune to require a doctor and the staff were so sensitive to my needs. The food was excellent, good selection, good quallity and value. The bus and subway stops are very convienent which make the location central. I would recommend this hotel to all my friends and I will book again for my next trip. They even organised a packed breakfast for us on the day we checked out as we were leaving at 6.45am. Well done Globus Tulip.

8.5

We were 5 days in Rom. It was an excellent stay. Great city, nearly perfect Hotel. Good public transportation.

7.4

3 night stay Excellent accommodation but location a little far away from main tourist attractions, nearest metro a good walk away

5.2

Almost every question we asked regarding room facilities or to extend our reservation dates was answered by: You have to pay more, you have to upgrade your rate. At arrival t mistakenly gave us the keys for a room already occupied. The gentleman at the front desk with a hesitant cold I'm sorry gave us a room with an unbearable small shower and undusted top furniture.

7.2

The room was cold and the air conditioner not working

8.3

We just stayed here on the way to the airport. Don't know if it's near any attractions, but its in a ugly nieghborhood. The hotel itself was very nice, we had a huge room for a cheap price.

7.1

Minor problems with WiFi.

7.5

If you want to be near the university, this is the place to stay. Otherwise, not.

7.0

glasses with better protection to noise

He encontrado tres pegas al hotel. La primera es que la habitación que me dieron no es la que reservé, la segunda es el frío que hacía en el cuarto de baño principal y la tercera es que la habitación estaba un poco sucia de polvo. En cualquier caso, creo que volveríamos a repetir en el mismo hotel.

8.2

Es ist genau so, wie viele ander hier schon geschrieben haben: + : sauber, super Service, super Frühstück, nahe Metro - : kleine Zimmer, laut. Für Rom super Preis/Leistungsverhältnis !!!

9.2

The welcome received when we arrived about half an hour before the rooms were to be available was good. A quick phone call showed that the non smoking, quiet rooms requested were available and we were allowed to use them straight away. We went with two other couples and one of the rooms allocated had a large square balcony where we could meet as a group. The bustle from Students in the street outside was reassuring in that the hotel in not situated down a run down dimly lit area and good food at a reasonable price would be available. We were not disappointed. Transport to the more tourist areas of Rome was easy and cheap (11 Euros for unlimited travel for three days on the Metro, buses and trams). It was 500yards to the Metro, the bus 310 stopped outside the hotel and the tram # 19 to the vatican about 100 yards. Very good value for money.

8.1

El hotel es exactamente como aparece en la web, sin sorpresas. En concreto pedimos la habitación familiar con una cama de 150 y litera, muy espaciosa y apropiada para dos adultos y dos niños. La primera noche nos metieron en una habitación que no era la que habíamos pedido, pero que estaba bien. Nos prestaron la Play Station y dos juegos sin coste alguno (aunque les faltaba un euroconector extraviado y por no esperar tuvimos que comprar uno). A cincuenta metros del hotel para el autobus 310 que te lleva a Termini en 15 min, mucho más recomendable que el metro. En definitiva un hotel de 3 estrellas reales, normalito por fuera pero muy nuevo por dentro, con un buen desayuno continental y buen servicio, en la zona universitaria pero bien comunicado. Inconvenientes: pocos sitios para cenar en la zona, y aislamiento acustico pobre. Muy recomendable especialmente para familias con niños.

7.6

Good choice, clean and modern. Little bit too expensive

9.8

Nice hotel, well located with competent and amiable staff. Would use again and recommend to others.

8.7

It was good to see that the Best Western standard is also available for a reasonable price in a city like Rome where every broom closet is called hotel room. The BW Globus Hotel is a great place to stay! Would always recommend to choose this accommodation.

8.6

Hotel muy recomendable. Fuimos tres personas y la habitación triple que nos proporcionaron era muy espaciosa (2 camas grandes y sofá cama grande). Bañera con hidromasaje, mobiliario moderno y todo muy limpio. Buffet completo y con buena variedad de dulces. Trato correcto y zona tranquila (casi nadie por la noche) a menos de 5 min. de la parada de metro policlinico y a 15 min. a pie de la estacion de Termini.

9.0

Best relationship price/quality. Breakfast is great: good room, good food, good timetable. There is a bus stop in front of the hotel. I would like to recommend this hotel to everypeople.

9.3

excellent all round, the only adverse comment I would have would be on the dinner menu. I somehow feel that it could be ,more extensive

4.7

Das Hotel lag in einer sehr verkerhresgünstigen Lage ( U-Bahn Policlinico). ideal um die stadt und ihre sehenswürdigkeiten zu entdecken. Das hotelzimmer hatte zwar vier Zimmer wie gebucht , entsprach aber nicht den erwartungen. im bett lagen noch einige haare vom vormieter, was natürlürlich nicht so appettitlich war. die einrichtung im zimmer war sehr einfach, genügte aber den bedürfnissen für zwei übernachtungen. auf dem balkon gab es keine möblierung. das zimmer war direkt an der strasse mit entsprechender geräuschkuliisse, was aber zu erwarten war. der frühstücksraum und das angebot war reichhaltig und vollkommen in ordnung. fazit: verkehrsgünstige lage, gutes frühstück, mässig gereinigte hotelzimmer zu überhhötn preisen. trotzdem war es eine tolle zeit in rom.

9.6

Very nice hotel. Very friendly and competent staff. Rooms spacious, clean and enjoyable. Location very suitable for visits to the city center, due to vicinity to the underground station (Policlinico). Unfortunetaly restaurant and bar close at 10 pm and no other restaurant or bar in the vicinity open after that time. However room-service was availabel even after 10 pm.

9.1

Family with 2 daughters (18 and 16 y/o). We own a car. We stayed at the hotel 3 nights. Here are the problems we faced: Problem 1: Two lifts were out of order, only one was functioning, so most of the customers used the stairs. Problem 2: Breakfast place was too small, so there was always a queue waiting for a free table. Problem 3: Soon after breakfast we found our room occupied by cleaning staff working there, so we had to wait at the corridor. Problem 4: Metro station was open up to 11:30 pm, so we had to take a taxi. Problem 5: No free parking place, so we had to pay 11 euros per day for parking on the street. And now the advantages: Adv. 1: Relatively close to the center (20 min. by metro) Adv. 2: Safe neighborhood Adv. 3: Logical prices

9.4

I can recommend this hotel. Clean rooms, very friendly staff, good breakfast.

4.9

We booked a family room and were informed by e-mail that the room would have two double beds. In fact this was not the case. There was a double bed and a bunk bed - hardly sufficient for a 15 and a 21-year old. Then there was a nasty smell in the room, especially when the room has been shut for some time. We informed the reception but nothing was done. The worse point was on our first night when the fire alarm went off and apparently, it was a fault. No one knew how to turn it off. People had jumped out of bed and rushed downstairs in the sleeping gear. On the plus side, the breakfast was fine. Personally, I wouldn't return to this hotel for this price!

9.6

Its a nice hotel good place to stay for anyone in a nice decent area that is within walking distance to the subway!

9.1

Very good hotel, especially for families with children. The employees was always very kind and helping, the breakfast was marvellous.The restaurant was also good and not so expensive.Our room was clean and very large, kids had a lot of space for them, the minibar was free and there was a jacuzzi in the bathroom. We enjoied so much our holiday in Rome, the hotel was near the underground station Policlinico and there was the bus to Termini just outside the front door. Finally, it was a good choice.

8.3

Great value hotel. Room was surprisingly big and comfortable. Generally quiet although there were some building works taking place which we hadn't been warned about in advance. 10 minute walk from Metro which provided a reliable frequent service to the major places of interest. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was painful, however, as we had to wait around 15 minutes to be seated and then they kept running out of cups, bowls, coffee, cereal etc. The breakfast room was not big enough to accomodate the number of guests although it looked like this was in part due to the building works. The surrounding area is not inspiring but felt safe enough even at night.

8.2

A clean hotel with spacious bedroom, helpful staff, and close to Rome's underground system. However, breakfast room was chaotic around 9.00 am - better to be in there before 8.30 am or you might not be served !

7.3

Das Hotel ist sehr sauber, die Zimmer wurden täglich gereinigt. Das Personal war sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich. Die Lage des Hotels ist günstiger Ausgangspunkt für die Erkundung von Rom. Nur drei Metrostationen bis zum Collosseum. Die Metrostation nur einige Minuten vom Hotel entfernt. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

9.7

very good hotel, especially the breakfast, u have a lot of choices. The only weakness is that only one bus can reach the place. Normally we stayed outside until 11 o'clock, but we had to wait for the bus for a long long time (15-30 mins)!!! Anyway, it is a really hotel, I would recommend this one!!!

9.9

In my opinion, this hotel is true to its class based on international standard. I've seen hotels here in Italy claiming 3 star but could hardly live up to two stars standard. If I will be asked to describe this hotel in one word, it should be "best", as it complies w/ its name. The building is nice. A bit modern but who needs ancient accommodation, when you can see a lot of them in Rome. The ambiance in the lobby and restaurant were nice. The staffs were helpful and friendly w/ smile on their faces (specially in the restaurant where they all try to make every guest comfortable and satisfied), w/c is rare in business establishments in Italy. The room was perfect. I did not expected it as it was in the picture. But it was more than that. All comforts; bathrobes, slippers, fridge, even a stereo, coffee pot, toiletries, all the basic things that you need. The location was convenient and accessible. Near Termini station and colosseo. Bus stop and tram stop are very near. Breakfast was superb and sumptuous. You can be assured that you can start the day w/ full stomach. If we go back to Rome, we will definitely stay again in this hotel. Our stay w/ Best Western Globus made our short leisurely trip to Rome comfortable, wonderful and memorable. Thumbs up to Best Western Globus Hotel and Venere.com.

8.3

Good location: 50 m from the busstop, less than 10 minutes walk from the underground or less than 10 Euro taxi drive to or from the centre. Excellent price/quality. The breakfast is very good. Regarding restaurants the centre offers better and cheaper options than this hotel. Everybody will like this hotel also people with kids. Tickets for public transportation for sale opposite to the hotel (one Euro per ticket for 75 minutes unlimited travelling, buses under 14 years for free). The entrance of the hotel has a staircase!

9.9

Our family (with teengaers) stayed at the Globus for 9 nights and we all loved it, especially the breakfasts! Ask for a cappucino - they make it for you and it is delicious. The hotel is about 5 blocks from the Policlinico metro station, not a long walk at all. We ate down the street at the Baci a Abraccio restaurant; great food. I would stay here again if I came back to Rome.

9.4

We had an excellent time at this hotel. Our triple room was very spacious. The bathroom was the biggest I've ever had in Europe, with a shower with multiple heads. Very nice after a 100 degree day in Rome! It was a little outside the main part of the city, about a 15 minute walk to Termini, and 5-7 minute walk to the metro station, 10-12 euro cab ride from Termini. There aren't many restaurnts in the area, but there was a great pizza place/snack bar just down the street that was incredibly cheap and open late. They had a big free continental breakfast that was very good. Also, free internet in the lobby was handy. I would definitely stay here again if I come back to Rome.

8.7

Although we had book the room through Venere, the hotel didn't have our reservation (overbooking??? I recommend checking with the hotel before getting there). They were really nice and found a room in another hotel for 1 night. Besides this, nothing negative to say. Great place!

9.2

Excellent hotel, great breakfast, one of the waitresses provided really excellent service and helped us get all the food even though it was a buffet she brough us cappuccinos and other stuff to the table. rooms are spacious and clean and the whole decor in the hotel and esp breakfast room is very bright and sunny/cheery. Minibar was free! though didnt have too much in it but not bad for a free mini bar. We had a nice little music system in the room too

Room was great, a little disappointed that the "family room" that we booked had a chair and not a couch as shown in the picture when we booked. The staff could not have been more helpful--we LOVED THEM! It was a great location and we had a wonderful time
