Nerva Boutique Hotel

What a wonderful find! This boutique hotel absolutely stole our hearts. From generous staff who looked after each of our needs with most impeccable attention to detail to the beautiful decor gracefully put together. We have been impressed with care and kindness shown by this boutique hotel. Right after checking in we were offered complimentary cocktails and also given tokens for additional lunch time drinks! Those came with some olives, cheese bites and nuts. The hotel receptionist ordered a taxi for us and kindly stored our luggage after check out. While the rooms are on smaller size, the spacious shower made out of high end stone made up for it. Highly recommended, right in the heart of Rome.

We had the best experience at the Nerva boutique Hotel. The staff were amazing. They were so friendly and attentive and made us feel so welcome. The rooms were comfortable. The location was perfect for exploring Rome. There was no issues with the noise level and the rooms were clean and the beds were extremely comfortable. We loved the bar and breakfast area. We highly recommend this hotel. This was our first visit to Italy, and the staff here were so helpful that it made it a truly enjoyable experience.

I can’t say enough good things about Hotel Nerva! From the moment I arrived, the staff was so warm and welcoming. It honestly felt like visiting family. They greeted me with thoughtful welcome gifts and a map, taking the time to point out nearby attractions and local spots to visit and helped with wine recommendations for a friend (even offered a gift bag!). Ilaria was especially helpful, answering my questions before I arrived and assisting me when I checked in. The location is outstanding, within a short walk to Trevi fountain, Spanish steps and the Colosseum. I even walked to the Vatican, though that was a bit farther away and most people would probably opt for taxi. The service throughout my stay was outstanding. Everyone went out of their way to help with whatever I needed, from calling taxis, to recommending great restaurants, and even bringing me a voltage converter after I tripped a breaker! My room was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully furnished. The food in the restaurant was excellent too; I only had a small breakfast, but it was fresh and delicious. The coffee was excellent! I absolutely loved my stay at Hotel Nerva and would come back in a heartbeat. If you’re visiting Rome and want a place that feels personal, caring, and truly special, this is it!

This hotel was an absolute joy for our family trip! The location is ideal for sightseeing, and the experience inside was just as good.||Our room was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. We especially appreciated the generous complimentary water, beverages, and snacks, a fantastic welcome amenity after a day of exploring.||The staff deserves a special mention; they were excellent and incredibly attentive. We also consistently enjoyed the breakfast and drinks at the hotel.||Highly recommended! We would happily stay here again when visiting Rome.

Stayed at Nerva Boutique Hotel in November. The whole experience was very pleasant. The staff were lovely and attentive, but quite relaxed and nice sense of humour, from the moment we walked in the door. We had a smaller double in the annex, which was a converted apartment in a really grant block two doors along - big wooden doors to a lovely staircase then a small lounge shared between 3 separately locked bedrooms. The room was very quiet overnight, considering this is the centre of Rome. We were tired so went to the hotel's cafe aurora - we were given a free drink with our stay - a lovely cocktail and a prosecco. The bar and kitchen staff were again so friendly. We chose to go for breakfast a la carte rather than prepaid - lovely selection. Location was excellent - right next to the Forum and ten mins walk to Colosseum one way and Trevi Fountain (where we went) the other. I'd definitely stay here again if visiting Rome and look forward to returning.

I stayed at Nerva Boutique Hotel with my 15 year old son, for 2 nights only (regretfully!) at the beginning of December. The hotel is absolutely stunning — tucked right behind the ancient Temple of Mars Ultor (built in 2 BCE). Our room was looking out onto a doorway that’s all that remains of the Church of Santa Maria Annunziata ai Monti, once built on ancient ruins and now gone. We were literally within arm’s reach of the Forum of Augustus, the Forum of Trajan, and the Markets of Trajan. Unreal location! 🏛️✨ The hotel itself is romantic, immaculately clean, and beautifully decorated! Our room was cozy, with crisp bedsheets and comfortable pillows. We had a Small Double Room booked and it was a bit too small for our needs (travelling from Canada with one large and one medium luggage). Same with the bathroom - perfect for one person. Hotel however is very honest on their website that this particular room category is best for single occupancy. Something to take into consideration for future bookings. Hotel’s staff (Charlotte, Nicole, Pouya and Roberto) were beyond welcoming, friendly and attentive! Staff goes out of their way to make your stay as enjoyable as possible! Breakfast (à la carte) at Aurora Bistro located at the premises, was ample, fresh and delicious, with gorgeous presentation. Complimentary mini-bar, water bottle and a tote bag were great additions to our stay! My son (typical teenager, who doesn’t get impressed easily) loved the hotel and its location and wished we stayed in Rome longer (we were heading to Florence for 7 days). I am truly looking forward to staying at the Nerva Boutique Hotel again, hopefully in the near future. Can’t thank you enough for your hospitality!

Great stay in this hotel. The staff is very kind and the position is excellent. Rooms are nice and clean. The breakfast is delicious. I want to underline how it is represented as a 3stars hotel but the services are superior! Best choice to stay in Rome.

Nerva was a fantastic experience. The hospitality was unmatched, Nicole and staff were amazing. They really went out of their way to make you feel welcome, and they wanted to help you with anything you were looking for. It was 5 star service. It’s cozy and very clean, but roomier than you think. Excellent location. Would definitely return. Recommend for an anniversary, special occasion, and weekend getaway.

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.

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.
