Mercure Rome Colosseum Centre 4 stars

all 3 days we were there it was extremely pleasant, clean and tidy rooms also

Great location and very friendly staff. Room (privilege) was not enormous, but well laid out. Very comfortable bed. Good breakfast. The cleaning of the room was variable : although always clean, it was not always well arranged: one day my pyjamas were left on the bedside table, the next they were beautifully folded. We appreciated the upgrade for our second room

Room was small. Paid extra $ for the view of colosseum from bedroom window however the view was from small balcony and oddly positioned window in the room. The pillar in the room was also oddly positioned. Staff was very courteous and nice. Convenient location. Rooftop Bar was closed at night. Breakfast was ok. Tip: should put allergen chart for each food item in breakfast buffet similar to Mercure Firenze.

We had a lovely 3 nights in this hotel, stunning rooms with comfortable beds... We went to the roof terrace which was clearly closed due to winter but it was stunning, the views of the colosseum from there, I would love to stay here in the summer. The staff were attentive and great, it was my husband 40th and they were brilliant in accommodating questions from me, and gave him a bottle of sparking wine for 2 which was a lovely gesture and meant so much to him as he was surprised they knew it was his 40th, even on check out the reception asked if he had a nice birthday, I mentioned it is actually tomorrow but it just showed the staff cared... You leave the hotel and turn right and you get a stunning view of the colosseum - wow! The minibar in the rooms was excellent, shame as we didn't realise it was free, this was a downside as we didn't use it but on the last night got told by another guest it is free, too late by then, especially as we did go and get a drink in the bar - but a warning, that is very expensive. We brought 2 x peroni and coke zero and it was nearly 18 euros.... the bar is not cheap at all, again the service excellent though. The only real let down is the lack of English tv in the rooms, we did get back 1 evening early as we had done too much walking but we couldnt watch anything as there was literally a couple of news channels and that was it, we couldnt justify the bar at those prices so we end up going to sleep very early. The other was breakfast, again staff were excellent but I would have been very unhappy if I had paid full price for breakfast for what was on offer..... We had a wonderful stay though, primarily due to the staff, location and comfort of the rooms. we will 100% return and cant wait.

Very old facilities on the hotel
