A family-run hotel a few steps from Santa Maria Maggiore, the Hotel Verona Rome has classic-style rooms with a private bathroom. Staff are available 24 hours. It is an option for anyone who wants both Termini station and the Colosseum nearby.
Location and getting around
It is on Via di Santa Maria Maggiore. Termini is about a 10-minute walk away; the Colosseum about 15; and the Roman Forum about 20.
From here you can walk almost the whole ancient Rome route and return to the hotel in mid-afternoon. The basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, one of the four major basilicas of Rome, is practically at the door, so you can visit it first thing.
Rooms and facilities
Rooms have air conditioning, tiled floors, classic furniture and a private bathroom with a shower and hairdryer.
Staff help with car hire and booking guided tours. It is not stated whether there is wifi or breakfast: if you need either, ask beforehand.
Who it suits
- Those who prefer a small hotel run by a family.
- Anyone who wants to book guided tours through reception.
- Travellers planning to hire a car for a trip outside Rome.
Good to know
Check-in is from 14:00 to 23:00, with photo ID and a credit card. Check-out is early: until 10:00. If you hire a car, ask the hotel about car access and where to park, because it is near the historic centre.
