Hotel Mimosa

We had a wonderful stay at the Hotel Mimosa. They arranged for us to be picked up at the Rome airport and driven directly to the hotel. Our rooms were ready when we arrived even though we were early. We had two rooms and they were both comfortable and clean. There is a vending machine with snacks, water and coffee in the hotel which was very convenient. There is a great cafe around the corner and the Pantheon is less than a five minute walk. The Coliseum, Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps and many other sites are in walking distance of the hotel. There are great restaurants close. The Piazza Navona and Campo de Fiore are also in walking distance and have lots of great restaurants for dinner. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Daniel went out of his way to help us get a large taxi to take us and our luggage to the train station. We traveled to Florence and then returned to Hotel Mimosa for our last night in Italy. Again our rooms were ready when we arrived early. We had two different rooms then before and they were both very nice, clean, and comfortable. I slept great. They pre-arranged for transportation back to the Rome airport the next morning. Everything was perfect and they made our trip easy and relaxing. I would stay here again and highly recommend this hotel.

I could only give it a 2 rating because I need my sleep. Stayed 2 nights and was awake at 3-4 am both nights because of noise and yelling from the street. (We were in room #5). Rooms are very basic with no amenities for the higher $$$. Our friends stayed at a nearby hotel for same price with bigger bathroom and breakfast included. On a good note, staff very friendly, hotel is located walking to all tourist attractions, and police everywhere, so pretty safe. Unfortunately can not recommend to friends and will advise our travel agent.

This hotel is pretty ghetto. It's in a good location but it's like sleeping in an army barrack with lots of hard uncomfortable beds. I guess this hotel might be good for young adults who want to share a room with lots of beds that 6 or 7 people can share. The rooms are dumpy and that's putting it mildly. But for the same price you can get a much nicer hotel in the same area of Rome. Two thumbs down. Can you say "yuck!!"

Hotel was decent, location was perfect... many attraction just walk away. Only thing i don't like are the vending machine in the common area. The main point of having vending machine is to ease the service instead we need to download the app, set up the account and set up payment method and all those hassle just to get a water bottle. The receptionist was very helpful though to order one from us from his account.

I'm a bit baffled by the 5-star reviews. We stayed here, family of 4 (two boys, ages 14 and 9) in June, and this is very much a 1-star hotel, user ratings notwithstanding. A few good things: the location is great, right by the Pantheon and near many restaurants and cafes; it was nice to have all four of us in one room; and good air conditioning. But overall, the hotel is pretty shabby. Linens are threadbare, shower is dingy. The quad room was very small, especially the bathroom, and there were no drawers to unpack your clothes. One day, housekeeping did not come at all, and another day, housekeeping made the beds, but did not replenish soaps or shampoos. I had to go to the front desk to ask for more soap. They charge 3 euros if you want additional towels (they only change them every 3 days). There is no breakfast and no coffee/tea facilities in the room. And all of this for $400 a night. I have to believe there are better deals in Rome. We would not stay here again.

Avoid this hotel! My shower had a lot of mold in it, I had only noticed when I came back to the hotel at 8:30 in the evening to take a shower. I brought this up (and the musty smell in the bathroom) to the receptionist and he said that they had no more rooms available and to contact Booking.com. After some back and forth through Booking, the receptionist arrived at my door with a sponge & alcohol. However, as a solo woman, I did not feel comfortable with this as there was a lot of mold and it would have taken a long time to clean it all. I also probably wouldn’t have used it anyways since I was grossed out. I did not receive any type of compensation as the owner claimed that I was lying to just get a refund. I was being blamed for not bringing it up earlier. The receptionist also raised his voice at me multiple times saying that “you’re not sleeping in the shower” and “this is a one star hotel, what do you expect?” (I expect a clean and safe shower). Although I had wished I had noticed the mold sooner so I could have changed accommodations, I didn’t feel comfortable venturing out at 10 pm (the time after all the back and forth). In the end, I was given the choice of a refund only if I left. I understand not being given a full refund as I used the room to sleep, however, not being able to use the shower in an accommodation is unacceptable. I would have hoped the hotel understood this and provided appropriate compensation, rather than calling me a liar. TLDR: terrible hotel, terrible shower, terrible treatment from staff and owner. Save the stress and book somewhere else!

We chose this location for proximity to things we wanted to do, and for that, it couldn't be beat. We walked to everything in the heart of Rome and took a cab to the airport at the end of our trip (there is a taxi waiting area a short walk away). There is fantastic espresso and quick breakfast in the square to the left of the entrance and great food less than a five minute walk away. The front desk staff in the mornings was amazing at recommending visits to places we hadn't considered and very helpful with any questions we had about the area. The rooms were quiet- we couldn't hear anything from outside, and only ever heard our neighbors at the hotel coming back at night.

Small place perfect for simple overnight stay, straight forward and perfect location. I also liked the vending machine

As other reviews have pointed out... this is definitely a 'budget hotel' (just look and feel those 'prison cots' my kids had to use as their beds for two nights!). The place was clean (although the main hallway - shared with actual tenants/businesses - reeked of cigarette smoke). Our room was clean. The bathroom seemed new. No frills or thrills (unless the bidet counts?!). Just a stone's throw from the Pantheon, across the street from a Michelin-starred restaurant, this hotel felt 'European' and a bit 'historic'. Only found out last-minute about local taxes/fees (which, to be fair, was a 'thing' at each place we'd stay throughout our vacation) - but they could only be paid in cash? Major issues: walls were paper thin and a family right next to us (with a toddler) made sure to have a lively conversation that went on late into the night. And without any type of fan or central air we had to open a window just to get some (cool) air and now it's deafening between the constant traffic (cars and walking tourists), busboys throwing out recycling at some ungodly hour, the polizia in hot pursuit, you name it. Probably our worst sleep while in Italy. (Cool/friendly staff, though.)

Great budget hotel in a great area! You are in walking distance of all the great sites, only about 500 ft away from the Pantheon. Also, there are many great restaurants in the area. I would definitely stay here again!

For an America finding this place was a little hard. It does not look like your typical hotel from the outside. It is also a shared space with residential apartments, the hotel does have its separate entrance in the building but the main entrance and the elevator is shared. Once you get past that this place is really really great. The price is amazing for the location. It is in the middle of Rome, easy walking distance to everywhere. Not to mention it is literally right behind the Pantheon. The guys at the desk were incredibly helpful any question we had they were more than happy to answer. You also get free breakfast that isn't bad. The room itself is nice and comfortable, nothing fancy but very adequate. I would highly recommend this hotel to any traveler.

Nice budget hotel. It's in Rome centre, near the underground stop! Staff is helpful and friendly and rooms are simple yet clean and pretty. Recommended if you are searching for a cheap hotel in Rome :)
