Hotel Palacavicchi

( 3 stars , Rome , Italy )

Perfectly acceptable as an airport hotel - for one or two nights. ok breakfast. Family room (2+2) spacious with good shower. Hotel Bus to airport 10 Euros for 2 - children free.

Ok hotel If you are flying out of the Ciampino airport, stay here. They have a shuttle to the airport. The staff is ok. The breakfast was pleantiful. The room was ok. It's an older property so don't speak much luxury.

As much as you pay, as much you will get Hotel wasn’t bad by itself. Little bit far from center. You you have a car it’s might take around 45 min to get to center of Rome. Service wasn’t bad, but staff communicate preatty much bad in enslish. You can it in restarant, wich is located in loby, but little bit overpriced. Traveler's tip on local attractions There is no attraction by the hotel. At all!

Very convenient for Airport. Good breakfast. Not so easy to access public transport. Bus provided at airport on arrival was most useful since taxis are expensive.

Good hotel...Far from everything Rome is freaking expensive! If you are going to eat somewhere, make sure you stay away from the restaurants and coffee shops around the main attractions. We went for a sandwich at one of these places, and made the mistake of sitting down on a table. We ended up paying double for two sandwishes and two bottles of water. If you are going to a restaurant, look for the ones that have a menu combo (appetizer, main course, and dessert).

Hotel is good, but location is terrible. Need to use bus and train to go to city center. Hard to find taxi at night and not many taxi driver know the hotel location.

Excellent room and bathroom, though cold tile floor. Lacks coffee making facilities in the rooms, though this appears to be the norm in continental hotels. All rooms at ground level. Good restaurant. The hotel backs on to the airport, so there is aircraft noise during the day. There is a filling station across the road, but the hotel is a little isolated if you are on foot. Reasonable rates, I would stay there again if the opportunity arose.

fabulous really nice hotel only problem is location as not near anything apart from the airport so can hear planes a little. room was very big and the staff were extremly pleasant. would highly recommend

Good hotel...Far from everything This hotel is in the middle of nowhere! However there are some good things about it, and ways to get around. The begin with, this is a very modern and updated hotel. The rooms are very roomy, comfortable, and clean. Breakfast is very complete. They serve fresh fruit, cereal, pastries, bread, fresh juice, etc. The service is ok. There is internet access, but it is 3 euro/30 min (way too expensive!!!). As I mentioned before, there is nothing around the hotel, so you have to find ways to get out! One way is to take the bus that runs nearby the hotel. It stops at the city of ciampino, and takes you to the metro station (line A). I would not recommend the metro station, as it is dirty and there is a lot of weird people around. The other option is to ask the hotel shuttle to take you to the ciampino airport. At the airport, there are busses that go straight to the Roma-termini station. The cheapest charges 6 euros per trip. However, there is a better, more economic way to get to roma. Ask the shuttle to take you to the train station, which is in downtown Ciampino. There, you can take the train, and it takes 15 minutes to get to Roma. The tickets are only 1.20 euro/person/trip, and is a nice, smooth ride to the city. I must mention that the shuttle never charged us anything for the transportation, so take advantage of it! To sum up, the hotel is clean, and though the hotel is far from everything, there are ways to go to Rome Traveler's tip on dining Rome is freaking expensive!

- Looks like rennovation work is being carried out - decor is awful - very basic - not good value for money - shall not be staying there again.
