Hotel Laurentia Rome

Super friendly staff, always willing to help. They made us feel very welcome. For a small hotel the breakfast is excellent and the lounge is spacious and comfortable. Located very close to the main rail and bus terminal the hotel is very convenient to popular tourist sites. We have stayed here several times and always enjoy the experience.

My guest and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. On our first day, we were leaving early to visit Pisa. The manager made sure we left with breakfast despite being two hours earlier than the scheduled breakfast time. I also appreciated that there was someone in the lobby at all times. The managers instructed us on where it was safe to walk since me and my guest are both women. We felt very comfortable and safe. The manager also arranged a taxi for us for our departure.

This a perfectly reasonable hotel a convenient, though grim, 10 minute walk from the train station. The area is not prepossessing but it has bars and restaurants among the launderettes and tattoo parlours. The main tourist attractions are some way off but the metro is the same grim 10 minute walk away in reverse and there is a rickety tram goes by to I don't know where. The room is clean with a large ensuite with a frustratingly small shower enclosure. The bed was hard and uncomfortable and the Italians don't do in room coffee making facilities. I find that hard to forgive. I also discovered the walls are quite thin when the lady next door started having a heart attack. At least that's what it sounded like 🤗 Breakfast is a sugar rush of pastries unless you are one of those people who eat ham and cheese when you get up. But the coffee is good.

Pros: lovely breakfast, nice staff, great central location (a lot of graffiti and homeless in the area) but felt safe, clean rooms!||Cons: rooms need updating.. very 1920’s and kinda old!||We had a lovely 3 night stay! And would be back! Thanks!

Conveniently located in the San Lorenzo area. The room was big, clean, and quite (facing an internal area). The bathroom was clean. Windows could be opened, which is a plus for me. The breakfast was nothing special, but worked.

Very nice service, kind people working here. The location is decent, close to Termini station but the area looked a bit suspicious at night and is rather far from most attractions. Breakfast was limited, it tasted okay. The rooms were clean and had a working AC, which I found to be a salvation during the summer heat wave. The large bathroom was nice as well.

Great place! I reccomend this hotel - in particular if you can get one of the rooms with a balcony. |Friendly staff and quiet place located in a charming area near Sapienza university. Many nice restaurants and bars around and fairly close to Termini station.

Very nice little hotel. The price is affordable and the breakfast is varied. It is located not very far from the train station and the neighborhood is very nice and animated with restaurants at night. But what I liked the most is the KINDNESS of the staff, they were very friendly with me ❤️. I will surely come back

We had such an odd experience at Hotel Laurentia. My friend, cousins, and I ended up booking a couple of nights here after our other hotel arrangements in Ostia didn't work out. The man at the front desk during the day was helpful and accommodating, but the front desk person working the evening was rude and unprofessional. The hotel is in San Lorenzo which is popular with college students and hipsters alike. It's a few blocks away from what the hotel staff described as a bad neighborhood, but I think they took a ton of extreme precautions. After 8pm, they lock the front doors to the hotel. YES - LOCKED. You'll have to ring the bell and bang on the door, and even then, the front desk person might ignore you, making the assumption that it's a drunk passerby just playing a prank. So bizarre. We ended up waiting 15 minutes and then getting ID'ed as if we were trying to get into an exclusive night club before getting in to the hotel that we paid good money for. I'll stop here because even thinking about this experience gets me agitated. For more than 120 euros per night, you would think they had a better system organized here. The rooms were okay... roomy but outdated and totally dark. 0 windows! The bathrooms were very clean and extremely spacious. I'd give this hotel one star if it wasn't for the spacious rooms and decent front desk person working in the earlier hours. He was pretty helpful in giving us directions and letting us know which routes to take if we chose to walk to local attractions. Those factors were the only saving grace here. Book at your own risk.

Great hotel. Stayed a week for work. Breakfast was filling and the cappuccino fantastic. It's close to the action with several tavernas out in the piazzatta which I both went to and watched from my terrace. The desk staff was helpful and enjoyed my basic Italian. I'd stay here again, as it is close to the Termini and easy (less than 3miles) from most anywhere.
