“the worst ever hotel”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 March 2011
3
people found this review helpful

We had only 2 nights in Rome and had our booking in another hotel (3*), which was also nearby Termini. On the check in day we were told that our hotel had temporary problem with water supply, but we would have a room in alternative hotel, same quality around the corner. That was LUX hotel. When has taxi dopeed us there we were nicely surprized to see that this was 4 star hotel and were excited by that only fact...But later when we went to our room were were surprised even more when we dicovered that room was too small for the hotel of that category, bathroom was small and awfull and not really clean. Double bad was not really double but rather 1.5 person size. Night was cold and we were searching for tha blanket in the room and found one in the wardrobe, but it was so old and dirty like it has never been washed. I went to the reception and asked to change the blanket but the guy on the reception could not undrestand what I was talking about and first brought me a sheet but not blanket , finally we managed to understand each other. But the replacement was not even better, at least it was a clean blanket but also like 20 years old. TV did not work, in the morning my husband got angly cause he counld not close door of the shower cabin and then shower held down and hit his to the head once he turned the water. I was also not lucky when I turned on the hair dryier and the pipe was broken from the main body . Breakfast...this is another story deserving another 10 minutes typing. I used to stay in 2 starts hotels in different cities like Amsterdam and London, but the breakfasts there were much better and fresh and you can not even compare with lux breakfast in that lux 4 star hotel. I really wonder how ministry of tourism could confirm they are 4 stars? I specifically checked this form, which is attaced in every room cause I could not belive my eyes I was staying in 4 start hotel and I though I was mistaken, but indeed the form for 2011 was saing this was 4 star hotel and was proved by the authority stamp.

“Basic accommodation but very clean hotel and polite staff.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 July 2010

I stayed at Hotel Lux for 3 nights as part of a large group. I was given a single room which was as small as a closet and with a view of a wall from my window. Feeling immediately claustrophobic, I asked the hotel for another room. Very apologetically, they offered me a more spacious double room with a balcony which was a big improvement! Although by far not luxurious, I found the hotel very clean and pleasant with very polite and accommodating staff.

“DO NOT BOOK”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 April 2010

This hotel is terrible: we slept in a one person room, which was provided with cots to make it a four person room. The mould fell from the walls. the shower is not to be used: electrically unsafe! Breakfast only if you need to see an italian hospital.

“Comfortable and close to historic sights.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 March 2010

We had originally booked one night after our cruise, just to relax and see the one sight we never go into our last visit to Rome. We were introduced to this hotel by front desk staff at the other hotel. We were moved into Hotel Lux because our room was not ready, though early. We were very pleased with the comfortable bed, spacious shower and beautifully decorated from lobby. We would stay again for a night or two. We were able to walk to the train the next day to get to the airport. We were able to walk easily to the historic sights from the hotel.
We were not looking for anything except a place to sleep close to the train. We got what we were looking for.
Front desk staff even got us a breakfast to go early in the morning. They were helpful with directions.
