We booked this hotel as we planned, as a foursome, to sightsee in Rome. The hotel had no parking so a bit difficult but we managed. It looks nothing from the outside, set back off the street. But once inside it is very clean and nice, and when we were shown to our rooms we were very pleasantly surprised. The room is quite large, very clean, nice bedding and towels, changed daily. However, several things left a lot to be desired. I had read several reviews previous to booking in, about how nice the Austrian lady owner is, and the staff etc. Unfortunately the nice Austrian lady owner was nowhere to be seen, and we just had a surly unhelpful elderly man, who wouldn't even lift his head in the morning to say hello. He was not at all helpful, and didn't put himself out at all....even to the point of NOT OPENING THE BAR. The little bar was there alright, but in darkness. Not once in the 5 days we were there did he open it. The breakfast was very meagre, rolls, jam and sweet croissant. Served by a very nice polite ?Thai lady, who couldn't do enough for us. We could have done with a mini-bar in the room due to not being able to have a drink in the hotel. So apart from the lack of mini-bar, Basil Fawlty on reception, and no bar to have a drink in, the stay was quite good. Not sure I would stay there again though.

My husband and I stayed here for 5 nights in august .. We were pleastanly surprised .. We had room 307 which was situated at the front of the building had our own small balcony... Room was big enough very clean, air con, shutters which kept the room dark and made it easy to sleep in ... Although it was not in the heart of Rome, the tram stop was a two minute walk at end of street ...we would stay here again

I visit Rome, Italy every two years. Hotel Monteverde is a very clean and basic hotel, reasonable rates, friendly service, wifi, tv, and close to the tram, just cross the street, and you're there. The tram takes you to the center of Rome (a very short ride), where you can easily walk to the Colisseum and Piazza Venezia, or take the buses to the these places as well as to the Vatican. Very easy to get around in Rome with buses and trams. Hotels in the center of Rome charge much more, so it's worth it to stay at Hotel Monteverde. Very safe and clean area. Hotel has no pool, and no parking. Parking is on the street - just like the romans do. Breakfast is very basic - rolls with butter and jam, packaged croissants, and coffee and excellent cappucino.. Rome is an amazing city, with lots to do and discover. Will stay there again - staff is very nice and friendly.

We recently stayed here for 9 nights in one of the larger rooms for three. Needed to be near my daughter who was studying at the American University for the semester. As others stated, it is clean, spacious and the owners are pleasant and helpful. Rolls are great, but get monotonous after a few days. Tram is very convenient. Seems like it comes every 2 minutes. Stops at Trastevere, where we ate half the time. If back in Rome, would definitely book again.
