Mercure Roma Corso Trieste

We stayed there prior to and after a cruise and were quite satisfied. The staff did an excellent job of looking after us. A complimentary internet access is another feature we liked. That, as we found out, can be very costly in Europe. Shuttle service to the airport and harbour is not free. Add 50 Euro per trip. But there are excellent bus connections and one can get tickets right at the hotel. Mercure is a French chain eager to provide good accommodation for travellers.

-Personnel disponible et multi-lingue (francais inclus) -chambre très agréable avec petit balcon sympa pour déjeuner et frigo dans lequel l'hotel offrait tous les jours des bouteilles d'eau -proprété irreprochable et grande générosité en produits d'hygiène corporelle -literie très confortable (dormi comme un bébé^^) -pas testé le petit dej car plutot cher (6 euros le premier prix pour un jus de fruit et une brioche!) -emplacement dans quartier résidentiel calme mais excentré, quelques resto sympa à deux pas de là et une superette -pensez à acheter votre Roma pass au comptoir de l'hotel ça evite de faire la queue!!

The staff were phenomenal, helping us in every aspect of our travel. Very patient with my rudimentary italian, and willing to help find anything. There is a grocery store (Billa) behind the shoe store right around the corner (you go through the shoe store to get to it) and a great wine bar/ enotecca down the street. The room was superbly cleaned daily, amenities were very good, with clean towels, a large tub, access to english BBC and CNN, and adequate power outlets. The terrace on the roof is a must at night, and if youre a night walker this is a very safe neighborhood to explore. It felt great not having to worry about pickpockets, but you are quite a bit away from Rome itself. It's about a 10 minute/ 12 euro cab ride each way with tip- 15 euro with rough traffic to central Rome or the shopping districts near the Vatican. Definitely purchase the private transfer from the airport- it will safe you so many headaches. The only setbacks to this place are that there is no pool and the overall simplicity of the place. But they're trivial things. Also, buy the Green Line Tour to Pompeii and Naples it was amazing. If you go to the Green Line office by Termini you can purchase the tours for the same price, but the representative you speak to makes a commission off of the sale, so we felt good about it. The open roof motor tour of Rome with Green Line is worth the $20 each, as you get so many pictures and a good grasp of the areas and how to get around, without the risk of being pickpocketed. Overall, I would definitely choose this hotel again, because the value was right on, but we might try to find a hotel closer to central Rome next time for the sake of transportation.

Service people are nice and helpful. Room is modern and clean. Beds are comfortable. Wired internet is provided free. Only one complaint was that breakfast was not provided free. I would consider it as an alternative if I ever visit Rome again.

Room, maid service, asking staff for help was GREAT! Very quiet for restful sleep!!! Only negatives were they seem to have lost our reservation for 15 min on check in kinda annoying after a long trip... Also for some reason they took away our free continental breakfast and the lame 2 dollar a person per night room tax is annoying too, be prepared to slap down another 40 euro's on checkout

This hotel is worthy of three stars. The room was big enough to walk around without bumping to each other. The bathroom was clean and neat. It offered wired internet and a great breakfast buffet. The staff was very helpful and most of them spoke english. It is located near five or six traditional Italian restaurantes. The only down side was the distance to the metro. After a full day walking in Rome, the way back to the Hotel was quite long (2 KM) ... the price was right!

This was a great hotel! Our favorite part was the breakfast! It was not extremely extravagant, but the food and coffee were really great and unlimited, hot chocolate, lattes, espressos etc. It was very close to the bus stop and you could easily get into the center of the city by bus. This hotel is also located in a beautiful part of the city, but you can't walk to many tourist destinations. Though that didn't matter. It was just so nice for such a great deal! The beds were also great, the staff was great and the whole place was just beautiful!

This is a wonderful little treasure in a VERY nice area of Rome. It is easy walking distance to busses and many good restaurants, gelaterias and even businesses. The staff is MOST HELPFUL and very friendly. [...]the front desk staff was GREAT. Our room was SO SO clean and we had gotten breakfast with our room package and it was a very complete one. We will stay here again if we return to Rome.

I just got back from my trip from Rome, I stayed at a few hotels during my trip, and would definately recommend this hotel. Nice hotel, Freindly staff. No Restaurant only a bar with Snack. A little bit far from the center . Also beware of some of the restaurants around tourist spots like the Vatican. Despite what the Oh yeah, menu said, we got hit for 78 euros for two so-so spaghetti dinners... for those of you taking a cab to this place from the airport, don't let the guys at the airport rip you off, some guy with a walkie talkie and official name card on his shirt directed us in a cab and told us how far we were from downtown and ended up ripping us off with a 60E cab ride to the hotel!! it costed us 50E from the hotel to the airport from what the hotel front desk arranged for us!!! I wouldn't pay much more than that!!

Large modern rooms with good furniture and excellent beds. It was a good location with restaurants nearby. Price was good for a big city.
