My stay at the Anagnina Hotel was comfortable. I got a great deal at about 70 euros a night. The hotel is modern and my room was very spacious compared to other hotels I have stayed in while in Rome. My room was also clean and quiet. The hotel is connected to a shopping mall, complete with a McDonalds and a supermarket. (Tip: Stock up on water from the supermarket or be willing to pay 4 - 5 euros for water in the center of Rome). The major issue with this hotel is the distance from the city. It will take a bus ride to the Metro (5 minutes) and another 30 - 40 minutes on the Metro to get to Termini Station. It was not really a problem for me as I stopped at Punto Longo station every day to meet up with my traveling companions. The least expensive way to get to this hotel from FCO airport is by taking the Leonardo Express Train from FCO to Termini station (11 Euros and 30 minutes). Once at Termini, get a metro pass and take the A line towards Anagnina. Get off at Anagnina (last stop) and walk to the bus terminal. Take the 46 , 506 or 507 bus and get off when you see the hotel (first stop, look for the Ikea). Overall this hotel was a good deal and I would stay here again.

My husband and I stayed here for 4 days while travelling through Europe last summer. The hotel is far from the city center, so it is quiet there. However, you have to take a bus to the subway station and then ride the trains for a while before you reach any tourist attractions. The mall attached to the hotel isn't anything to brag about, and there really aren't any places nearby to eat. But the hotel was clean, and our room was spacious. It's a good value for the money as long as you don't mind being away from the city.

We stayed here at the end of May, 2007. We booked 2 rooms, a double and a triple. Overall, we liked the hotel, its location and most importantly, the pricing. We paid half of what we would need to pay for a similar hotel in central Rome.

We would have rated it above average if not for the air-condition in the triple room. It is not cold enough where the temperature gauge constantly showed that it is around 28 - 30 degrees C. We complained to the management but was told that it is because there are 3 of us in the room which I do not see it as the reason. The air-condition in the other double room was just perfect.

Anyway, apart from the air-condition, everything else was just great. The rooms are new, very clean and of a decent size. There is a free shuttle service that takes you to the subway station from the hotel which is less than a km away but it is not possible to walk as there is no walking path. Returning from the subway station is also very easy as there are buses always waiting right in front of the station that take you right back to the hotel.

The subway station is the last/first station of Metro Line A. We were initially worried whether the train will be almost deserted by the time it reaches the station. It was never like that as lots of locals from surrounding suburbs will get on and alight at this station. Another advantage of it being the last station is that there was always seats available on the train when we board it. The same train goes to St.Peter's, Vatican Museum and Trevi Fountain so it is convenient.

Breakfast is adequate with meat, fruits, dairy products and juices. The hotel is also situated in the same shopping complex with a supermarket and McDonalds. We got our supply of drinking water (real cheap) and pizzas from the supermarket. We also walked across to Ikea which is just behind the hotel for some cheap hot dogs.

Overall, a good value for money hotel. I will still stay there again if I am back in Rome but will make sure it has a good air-condition !

We booked a 3-night stay at the end march at Ananigna Hotel.
Upon arriving at the hotel and our room, we found out that the air-conditioning system operates only for cooling, but not warming function despite the cold weather at night there. We had just one blanket in our room so we asked for additional one…But that was just the top of the iceberg! At every 2-3 hours their alarm system in the corridor beeped for some minutes to make sure that we do not have any chance of falling asleep. Other guests on the same floor had complained about the alarm too and the manager also acknowledged the problem and told us that he arranged technicians to fix it. The “nice” surprises continued. To keep us a company while being awake at night there was a MOUSE in our room!!! I saw it when it ran across the room when I switched on the lighting after hearing some weird noises. And this is a hotel that claims for 4 STARS?! The hotel looks nice on the outside but it is its only advantage!
It really ruined our vacation and I would not recommend this place to anyone.
