Nerva Boutique Hotel

We had a wonderful stay at Nerva Boutique hotel. The hotel exceeded our expectations from arrival until we left. The location cannot be beaten - so close to the Colosseum and so many sites, but also on a side street that is quiet. I'm always worried about street noise, and since our room was on the ground floor, I was concerned it would be noisy, but we didn't hear a thing from the street. The rooms are well equipped with a free minibar and we even got some gifts that were useful in Rome - water bottles, a bag and a book about Rome. The size of the rooms were great for 3 of us and felt very private too. I love the art and books all over the room and the hotel, it really gives it a great atmosphere. The staff was also so helpful and whenever we had a request they were only too happy to help. I'm so glad we found Nerva Boutique Hotel and would recommend it to anyone traveling to Rome.

We had a great experience at Nerva hotel. After two cancelled flights and being stranded for 24 hours in the US ahead of arriving in Rome, Charlotte and the team did everything to make sure we have an enjoyable experience in Rome. They suggested and booked great dinner spots for our family. The welcome drinks and fruit platter in the room, added more charm to our hotel experience. The location is just perfect, yet in a quiet alley so that’s even better. It’s an independent boutique hotel and I support small businesses all the way, ahead of big hotel chains. The whole team is cheerful, helpful and polite. I will definitely tell all my friends about this cute boutique hotel and we can’t wait to come back one day. The room is not huge, but that’s expected with hotels in the heart of the city.

We stayed for one night with our child, and the hotel’s location was excellent—just a few minutes’ walk from the Colosseum. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the check-in process was smooth and hassle-free. The food was good, with complimentary drinks available, and the breakfast was outstanding. One staff member went above and beyond by assisting us with our luggage and accommodating our needs. I would highly recommend this place, especially for families traveling with kids.

Our family of four stayed at Hotel Nerva a few weeks ago for three nights and we had a lovely experience! The service was excellent from the moment we arrived. The tote bag, water bottle and goodies in the fridge were unexpected and appreciated. The surprise champagne and slice of cake for my birthday, and even singing of happy birthday was so special. Overall, the staff went above and beyond to help make our stay a positive one. We absolutely hope to visit Rome and Hotel Nerva again!

We stayed 2 nights in this charming hotel in the Monti neighborhood. Although the room was small (like so many hotel rooms in Rome!) it was very well thought out and comfortable. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive; especially our breakfast server (I'm sorry, I can't remember his name!) He was so sweet to cheer my husband on while he tried his best Italian to order breakfast. I really liked the location- away from the maddening crowds yet close to unique shops and restaurants that didn't feel like tourist traps. Would absolutely stay here again!

This is the best hotel in Rome! We loved everything about our stay. From the first moment we walked into the hotel and was warmly greeted by Charlotte until we left, we felt like family. The staff made our trip so meaningful. We will definitely be back and spread the word. Nerva Boutique Hotel is the place to stay. My wife and I are both teachers and we give the staff and the Hotel our hightest grade of A+

Now this hotel has a little character with your arrival champagne. VS & Nerva Boutique Hotel might just be my Roman home. Adorable doesn’t even begin to cover it. This place is in the heart of the Eternal City, steps away from ancient ruins and all the gelato stops. The design is cozy shabby chic, and every corner looks like it was made for a magazine spread. Loved my stay. Perfect for the solo traveler. They offered twin bed rooms.

We had a wonderful experience at Hotel Nerva. A well appointed hotel in a good location; right next to the forum. The staff were exceptional! All very helpful, friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was good as well. Highly recommend!

I booked at Hotel Nerva for six nights and I was very happy with this hotel: Rate - I booked a few weeks in advance on the hotels website. I was able to book the cash rate which provided an extra discount, but I did have to have a nice chuck of euros on hand when I checked-in, which turned out to be inconvenient. Transportation - I booked a car to/from the airport through the hotel which was $50 euros (2 euros more than the taxi flat fare) and I would recommend doing this if you are traveling with luggage like I was. If you are traveling light you can take the Leonardo Express train for much cheaper (8 euro) to Termini Station which is a 20 minute walk or 10 minute taxi to the hotel. Rooms - I booked the lowest category of room and I was very happy with the accommodation. The room was indeed very small, but this is typical for Europe. What I liked about the room (#201) was it was very clean and it had some nice design touches, and a charming view of a roman ally. I never heard other guests and found the hotel to be very peaceful. I thought the bed was going to be too firm but it turned out not to be; the pillows were too soft for my taste but this was solved by requesting extra pillows. Staff - Everyone at the hotel was so nice and welcoming. Roberto and Nicole in particular, but everyone was great. Neighborhood - I loved being so close to a lot of the ancient sites (Colosseo, Palatine Hill, Forum) but not being in a touristy area. Monti has nice restaurant, bars, and cafes very close to the hotel and other sites (Pantheon, Trastevere area, Testaccio Market) were only a 20-30 min walk. The only downside I can think of was that the safe in the room was small and did not fit my laptop.

Stayed here on our last night before flying out from Rome. The hotel is within walking distance of the train station - about a 20 min walk. If you have a lot of luggage you'll want to take a taxi. The hotel is tucked away from the main road on the cobblestones but has a sign hanging in front. The hotel is centrally located to the Roma Forum and many other historical sites, all within walking distance. It's a great hotel if you want to stay in the central region of Rome. The rooms vary based on amenities. The one I was in had a small office space and overlooked the courtyard. The room itself was beautiful and had a lovely wood ceiling. The bathroom floor was granite and had a couple steps so definitely a little slippery when coming out of the shower. The shower itself is small but on par with most of the bathrooms in Italy. The customer service was fantastic. They helped us arrange a car to the airport the night before and let us know about fun places to check out. It was the best relaxing stay before heading home the next day.

We needed a hotel in Rome for one night before our cruise. I checked Yelp and TA and Nerva had excellent reviews and a good location near the Roman Forum and central Rome. At 250 Euro a night including breakfast it was pretty well priced. The hotel is located on a small relatively quiet street which is directly behind the forum. They had a car pick us up from the airport for 50 Euro. The driver was waiting for us and drove us directly to the hotel which was very convenient and easy. We had reserved a deluxe room and were on the 2nd floor. Although the room was modern with wood floors and a beautiful wood ceiling it was extremely small. It said 200 sq feet but felt like half that. The bathroom was also very tiny with barely enough room to even walk. The wifi was really fast and the staff were all very friendly and helpful. They recommended a fantastic family run restaurant where we had a great dinner. They also had a nice tea service in the afternoon with several teas and a delicious ricotta cake and pastries. We did not care for the breakfast as others seemed to have. They have no hot items, only breads and meats and cheeses. Overall we enjoyed our stay as it was only for one night.

We booked here based on a recommendation from Rick Steves Rome guide book, and we made a good choice! Nice location near the center of Ancient Rome -- the ruins are literally across the street (but it just looks like a wall from that side). We arrived late and were pleased to see a warm smiling face from Nicole at the check in desk, and she offered to make us sandwiches to calm our hunger when we said we were too tired from our long travel day to go out to eat that night. The room was very nice (but small) and well appointed. We stayed 3 nights in early March. Would stay here again.

We stayed for just one night after arriving in Rome, before we set out for other locations in Italy. We had requested an early check-in, which the staff was able to accommodate - much appreciated! Everyone we met with at this hotel was helpful and friendly. Breakfast was quite large and high quality. The woman serving breakfast was so pleasant and delightful! Our room and bathroom were both very nice - the hotel appeared to be recently updated. The bathroom was a bit small, but this is common in Rome. The location was absolutely fantastic. We were about 5-7 minute walk to the Colosseum, metro, several restaurants and bars and other sites. I will absolutely stay here next time in Rome and highly recommend!

My stay at Nerva was one of the best experiences I've had. The staff couldn't be nicer, the hotel is clean and tidy, smells amazing, close to a number of places to dine, great breakfast, great mid-day snack, air conditioned, cute rooms (very small). I can't say enough. Stay there, you won't be sorry.

I booked our room last minute as we arrived to Rome via bus on hotel tonight and could not be anymore pleased. Traveling all of Italy was difficult and frustrating enough not knowing the language but I felt right at home when I arrived here. They are so well mannered and detail oriented, helping us book trains and showing us where to go at the reception desk. Fernando was so helpful, thank you guys so much for making Rome such a lovely experience for us. If you guys go to Rome I highly recommend this hotel....beautiful and spacious rooms, perfect location, great breakfast and overall 5 stars. Amazing job guys!

We booked a room here on a whim and it was lovely. The bed was pretty hard but the pillows and sheets were soft. The staff were very responsive and kind. I believe this is the best location for first-time tourists in Rome. The ruins and colosseum are just minutes from this hotel. The only reason I did not give this 5 stars was because our bathroom had a very undesirable smell, somewhat like mildew. We could not figure out where it was coming from but we just kept the door closed. Other than that, very nice hotel.

Very friendly staff. Good quality breakfast at 10 euro per person. Sally was the highlight of the staff and so friendly. However we rented the suite at 400 dollars a night (converted from euro) and it was my wort disappointment from hundreds of hotels in more than 15 countries. The suite was a closet in comparison to the term of what a suite is. A average room with a steep stairs to a loft space. Under the couch was mouse droppings and the beige carpet was very dingy and nasty. Didn't expect a 5 star room but also didn't expect a motel quality room. Never waste you money on their suites. Stay anywhere else and taxi in if you want a real suite experience.

We only got to stay here one night as we were on the last part of our trip but wished we could have stayed longer! The hotel is very quaint and comfortable recently remodeled and the staff were so amazing! Very helpful, knowledgeable, and nice. We would highly recommend staying here and we look forward to hopefully staying again in the future!

I cannot say enough good things about the Nerva Boutique Hotel. From the moment we arrived we felt welcomed. The front desk person, Nimal, offered us cool drinks after a long journey and then proceeded to provide us with a list of restaurants in the area and around the city. After having some trouble making a reservations somewhere else because we do not speak Italian, Nimal was kind enough to contact the other hotel and to make the arrangements and get us a great rate. The rest of the staff and manager were lovely as well. In addition, we had a double room with two beds. Not only did we get two beds, but two bathroomsl! The room is tastefully appointed, very clean, modern and inviting with good storage and a mini fridge. The location is great if you are interested in seeing the ruins of Rome as it is near the Forum and Coliseum. We will definitely stay here again the next time we are in Rome. The Nerva is a little hidden gem and a true pleasure.

Our two night stay in Rome was made such a pleasant experience by every staff member. All the lovely gentlemen behind the front desk were extraordinarily helpful, and every morning we were greeted with a delicious breakfast served by hotel staff that kept insisting on giving us more food than we could finish. Almost felt like being at our grandmother's place. The rooms were on the smaller side, but this is Roma. Highly recommend!

Best boutique hotel!!! Clean rooms great service. Very helpful. Make reservations early.

We loved our three nights here. The people working in this hotel are amazing: professional, knowledgeable, helpful, relaxed and just so wonderfully kind and friendly. Our rooms were tiny (we had a small double for the two adults plus a mini suite for our three children) and beautiful. The continental breakfast with Sally at the helm is a real highlight. The location is perfect. We loved the Nerva - what a memorable and wonderful stay. Thank you so much to Patrick, Fernando, Sally, and every other lovely person who made our stay so memorable.
