“Fabulous hostel in Rome”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I recently spent 2 months travelling through Europe and have to say that The Beehive was the best hostel I stayed in during the whole trip. I stayed in the dorm which was great value at 20 euros a night. The first thing I have to comment on is how clean the whole place is - it was immaculate. There are plenty of bathrooms too, so no fighting for the showers (the shower gels and soaps provided were great). The hostel has a really relaxed vibe as is promoted, and knowing this, everyone in the dorm was a like minded traveller and I made some amazing friends there. Note - this is not a party hostel!! Although there is no kitchen, a small cafe is located downstairs where we ate breakfast most days. There was also a decent free wifi connection throughout the hostel. Don't be put off by the hostel being close to the termini. None of us staying there encountered any problems whatsoever in the surrounding area and it didn't feel unsafe in the slightest. In fact, it being close to the termini is incredibly handy if you arrive/depart by train as it is a 5 minute walk away. The Beehive also has a nice outdoor area to relax in which is shielded by high walls from the street, although it was a little too cold to use it the time of year I was there! I would not hesitate in recommending The Beehive and will definitely be staying there again when next in Rome.

“The perfect place to stay in Rome”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012

This is a really friendly, well-run, relaxing place to stay. Rooms are immaculate, there's a lovely feel to the place, and all sorts of creature comforts that lots of hostels / pensioni don't think about. Breakfast at the cafe is delicious (extra charge) and the book of Rome recommendations is a great resource. Service is excellent. A perfect place if you're more interested in the culture of the region than in partying.

“One of the best hostels”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2012

person found this review helpful

The staff is very friendly. I stayed in an 8-person dorm and got to meet some new people, for the price it can't be beat. In a good location, though Termini is kinda seedy, this hostel is located on the better side of the station and I never felt unsafe walking by myself. To get there from Termini: find the Roadhouse Grill and walk straight - that will put you on Via Marghera - and if you reach the Roman Tourist Information, you've gone one door too far (there should really be a bigger sign outside. Or I should pay more attention!).
