Booked last minute for the last night of our trip before flying out of Rome. What a great choice to stay here. The owner Mario is worth the visit alone. He was so welcoming, funny, gave us some great recommendations. He treated us like we were family. He was also very helpful in sorting out some last minute private shuttles due to flight changes. Hotel is in a great location and has everything we needed. It was clean as well. No issues at all. We’ll definitely be back and recommend staying here. Grazie Mille Mario from your Portuguese friends in Canada! Ciao

Our bathroom had a sewer smell that was very unpleasant. The ventilation fan made the bathroom heat up quickly. As this was a separate bathroom (outside of the bedroom with a common walkway), it made it very hard to cool down or air out the smell. There was no mirror in the main bedroom, which required getting ready in the bathroom (which as noted above was not pleasant). Besides this, the staff were lovely and the hotel was in a great location.

The concierge service is great and very helpful. Location is great. However the room itself is quite disappointing. Tiny room that fit one double bed and two twins, leaving no privacy and room for walking. The washroom is not very clean. You can see mold everywhere. Sink stinks quite a lot. Overall bad living experience.

Fantastic stay, fantastic staff

We stayed at Basilio 55 Rome for 6 nights and have nothing but positive things to say about the hotel, staff, and location. Our room was clean and the bedding was comfortable. The heat and air conditioning worked well when we needed them (weird to need them both in the same trip). The staff are AMAZING. So helpful and responsible, both before the trip and during our stay. Mario had lots of good information about things to do and helped us book a tour and airport transport. The location of the hotel was perfect - close to the metro and lots of the sights we wanted to see, close to lots of good restaurants too. But it was also on a quiet street, so that was good. Our room was quiet and comfortable. We'd 100% recommend staying here and would stay again if we come back to Rome. Thanks Basilio 55 staff for a great visit!

Don’t Stay Here

Don’t stay here. Everywhere else in Italy, people took pride in their work and service — but not this place. In fact, they actually ended up scamming us. The hotel claims to have air conditioning: it does not. We were in Italy during a heat wave, and when we entered the oven-hot room and the AC wasn’t working, I told the desk. The receptionist’s explanation: you can’t set the AC to your desired temp; you need to set it to 27 C (81 F) and work on incrementally lowering it. I explained to her once more —though it was obvious now she didn’t need to be told — that the AC is broken. She came to the room and played with the remote (see picture) while on the phone with the owner. After hanging up, she relayed the owner’s message: that’s just the way it is. When we told her that we aren’t going to stay here then, she apologized for the inconvenience and told us a refund would take a few days to clear. We took the hotel at their word, that they would cancel the reservation, and went on our way. Well, they never canceled the reservation. When we inquired with them about the refund, they told us to call hotels.com. What they told hotels.com is that we “checked out early”—and even though we left immediately because of the broken AC, they actually charged us for 3 nights. Meanwhile, they probably made double on the room by releasing it to some other poor traveler. Don’t be that traveler. Stay elsewhere. (Side-note: there was tons of garbage on top of the closet from previous guests.)

Great staff and a good location. Need to be fit as there is only a very small lift so we tended to use the spiral staircase.Decor needs upgrading and the lighting in one of our rooms was poor but a good price for the location we were in.

This hotel has been the worse hotel I have EVER stayed in. Would NOT recommend to anybody ! There is no 24hr front desk help, if we would have gotten there a minute later the doors would have been closed and there would have been no one to let us in the hotel. The walls on the room were dirty, the AC was not working, and Mario the owner was super rude. The bed was not done and when we asked why, Mario answered with, “it doesn’t say we have to make your bed in our policy” pointing at a paper on his desk. Please please please do NOT book this hotel!

We stayed at Basilio 55 for 5 nights, and it turned out to be just right for us. The hotel is tucked away on a quiet side street just up from Piazza Barberini, making it a peaceful yet convenient base for exploring Rome. The quirky little lift to the upper floors was quite a novelty — cosy, but it added to the charm! Our room was clean and tidy with a very comfortable bed. The bathroom, while a little “tired” in places, was spotless and the shower always provided plenty of hot water. A big thank you to Mario, the hotel manager, who was extremely helpful throughout our stay. He assisted us in booking tickets for the Vatican, the Colosseum, and the Green Line hop-on hop-off bus — things I really should have arranged before our trip. The location was excellent, with a Metro station right at the bottom of the street. At just €1.30 per trip using contactless payment, it was incredibly easy and convenient to get around the city. Overall, we had a lovely stay. As part of an Expedia package with flights, it was also very reasonably priced. Thanks again for all your help and advice, Mario!

When we arrived, no one was on site to check us in. We were unable to enter the building. We called and were disconnected multiple times because the wi-fi and cell service was spotty because of the 'old building'. We were given instructions over the phone that were confusing because we needed to access a lock box and the room numbers weren't visible. After 40 minutes someone came to let us in. The key didn't work easily. 2 of the 4 pillows had stuffing instead of a pillow. The toiletries were sub-par and not labeled because the container was old and worn. The ride to the airport was posted on the site as 60 euros but we were charged 75. I asked for a refund and cancellation at check in because of all the issues but was told no.
