Mercure Roma Centro Colosseo

The location is really good, the staff were really good also breakfast was good and had good variety

We stayed here primarily for the location near the Colosseum and it didn't disappoint in that regard. Super close with views of it from the rooftop. It was also right on a bus and tram line and very close to the subway (near the Colosseum). There were tons of restaurants and bars nearby, plus shops. The room was a good size and well appointed. The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of space to set out our belongings, plus a closet and safe. View from the room was of Roman rooftops - very nice. Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was abundant and tasty. Overall I would say this hotel is great for tourists including families and couples.

I booked this hotel for my husbands birthday mostly for the rooftop pool and the close proximity to the Colosseum. I was happy with the colosseum side facing room (see photos). Staff were friendly and helpful - providing us with an extra pillow and ordering us a taxi to the airport. Breakfast seemed expensive (€17pp?) so we did not add this. Instead we used a coffee shop next door - Ciuri Ciuri Celio. The hotel has some lovely restaurants and gelaterias in nearby side streets. I recommend ‘Il Braciere’ cafe to the rear of the hotel, very reasonable and loved by locals. Very close to transport links and €40 from CIA airport. Just 5mins from the Colosseum and close to hop on / hop off city bus tours. 45min walk to the Vatican. 30min walk to Spanish steps & Trevi Fountain. Rooms are small however they are clean and modern. Fridge, TV, safe and 2x bottles of cold water. Air con could’ve been stronger (however temperatures were 36/37° when we visited). The rooftop pool was VERY busy during the weekends (guests lying on the floor as the sunbeds had all been taken). This may not be the case in cooler temperatures.

The hotel was lovely, location was excellent, the view from the rooftop was beautiful with a clear view of the colosseum and surrounding areas. The rooftop bar was great for food and drinks in a lovely chill atmosphere. The pool looked great but we didn't go in as we didn't have time. Breakfast was very good and the staff were helpful and competent. There's plenty of restaurants and bars in the vicinity and public transport is very close by.

The high point is definitely the lovely rooftop pool and bar. The pool was amazing as Rome was in the middle of a full on heatwave whilst we we’re there. The rooftop bar is great and a good spot for taking photos as the views included the colosseum and surrounds. The cocktails were great and bar staff very friendly and attentive . The hotel location is great with an abundance of cafes and restaurants on the doorstep and a great coffee shop next door with good coffee and great pastries. The staff were very attentive and helpful and provided good service at front desk including an efficient check In service
