"LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 5, 2012
This little hotel has location, location, location! It is less than 5-10 minutes walking distance to the Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, Piazza Navona, & Tempolo Adriano. It is about 15-20 minutes from the Coliseum, the Forum, and Vittoria Emmanuelle, around 25-30 minutes from Piazza del Popolo, and a half hour from the Vatican. Seconds away from the main artery Via Del Corso, you can’t get a better location for a more reasonable price. The front desk staff is wonderful and Tomosso in particular will not hesitate to recommend the best restaurants and tell you how to get to all the sites within Rome. He recommended fabulous restaurants and mapped out a walkable itinerary of sites daily for us. If you don’t care to walk, the hop on hop off bus is two minutes away. What really sets this hotel apart is the 5th floor outside deck with a panoramic view which is used for breakfast in the morning and a possible night cap at night. What a way to start and end a day. It was beyond gorgeous and really a delightful highlight to a memorable stay in Rome. The rooms are big enough to accommodate two easily and are clean and neat. The only difficulty I encountered was that I was unable to connect to Wi-Fi but instead used the downstairs computer. Some of the rooms on the upper floors are only accessible by a short stairway which is difficult with heavy luggage. Other than that, our stay was perfect and I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel.

Excellent, convenience to airport was essential.

We did not get information that payment by card was not accepted. The breakfast was poor, bread from yesterday, cerials too sweet. The juice was more like lemonade than fruit-juice.
"Would stay there again"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 5, 2012
Had a great experience. Our triple room was clean and bed very comfortable, including pillows. 40 inch hd tv with all the sky channels with the options to switch to English language. Filled a form with time and choices for breakfast . Arrived on time and plenty of food. ( Italian style breakfast) . Front desk nice and helpful. Near American embassy, hard rock cafe' , villa borghese park( very nice!) . Would stay there again and reccomand it to friends and family
""Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 5, 2012
Room was so small that we could barely walk around the bed and there were no drawers in which to put clothes. The buffet breakfast, however, was outstanding and the location very convenient. Front desk staff could be friendlier. The room was much smaller than the photo for that level of accommodation

Rome’s largest, most spectacular fountain, the Trevi Fountain is a baroque extravaganza, its ancient sea gods and gushing water dominating a tiny piazza. Immortalised in Fellini’s film, ‘La Dolce Vita’, this is the place to toss your coins to ensure your return to the Eternal City. The three streets radiating from the piazza lead to the historical centre and sights of the Quirinale – one of the original seven hills.

"Memphis Hotel - bug bites"
We stayed at this hotel for two nights in March. Upon entering the hotel, the lobby is updated and looks new and renovated. When we got to the room, it was a little outdated in terms of decor relative to what we saw in the lobby, but nothing that we couldn't live with. The size of the room was pretty large compared to other hotels we have stayed at […] in Europe, and the bathroom looked very nice (although, when we were checking in, we heard someone complaining that the water in the bath would not turn off). The staff was friendly and I would have had no complaints about the hotel, except that when we left, my wife and I both had numerous bites all over our legs. I can only assume that there was some sort of bugs in the bed at the hotel. Read more
"Hotel Memphis-Perfecto location!!"
I booked this hotel not knowing anything about the location. When I arrived to check in, I was thrilled to discover that I was literally surrounded by everything anyone would want to see during their first trip to Rome. The hotel itself is tucked into a little street that created a quiet environment. For the most part, the staff were friendly and helpful. […] However, the man who worked nights was condescending and rude. It was obvious that he wanted to be left alone even when I was having trouble with the tv in my room. The room itself was cozy and cute, with just the perfect amount of room for 1 person. However, the bed was extremely uncomfortable and the bedspread was worse as it was made out of some kind of denim fabric that was super itchy. But overall, I would definitely stay here again. Read more
"Close to the Trevi Fountain"
Good location, good staff, good breakfast. Surcharges for things like internet are quite pricey. Bathroom door was broken. Overall it's a pretty decent hotel and in a good location.

"memphis hotel in trevi fontaine area of rome"
has tiny, really, really small rooms, good breakfast.
"excellent spot...near everything"
The Memphis is the hidden Gem of Rome's hotel. Nice and comfortable rooms, amaze in the size of its bathroom which includes a large bathtub...compare to other Europe Hotels. Excellent breakfast to kick up the tour day. Near the Termini station, spagnola plaza and Trevi fountain. Quite hidden place. Sure I'll be back the next time at Rome
"The Memphis hotel in Rome, Italy"
The staff all spoke English and were helpful (when asked) which was nice, the complimentary breakfast was very good and the housekeeping was great, however the shower was the size of your body (and I am just 5'7 and 130 lbs) so my elbows continued to hit the sides as I showered and if you didn't want to wash your hair one day, forget it...you were getting […] wet. Also, the water wasn't very hot during certain times of the day. All-in-all a nice hotel, but a few things that aggravated me. Read more
"Hotel Memphis"
This hotel is clean and modern, especially the bathroom. We got a triple although there were only two of us and it was quite comfortable. It's on a side street so don't expect a view, you probably won't be in it except to rest or sleep anyway! Our room was ready for us at 9 AM which made it very convenient for us to rest for a minute before we walked […] around. Easy for us to get back to so we could get ready for a tour of the Colosseum which was walking distance (give yourself time to get lost) and even closer to the Spanish Steps and Trevi Fountain. We left at 7 AM the next morning so we did not have a chance to eat the breakfast that was included. Very nice receptionist and they did have a bellman that helped us with our luggage. Read more
"Hotel Memphis in Rome - mixed"
Pros: great location, clean Cons: shower infinitesimally small, half the people wouldn't fit in without banging elbows; internet very expensive and often very slow; desk staff not very friendly or helpful, any of them All-in-all: significantly overpriced for what you get
"Close to Train"
Was blown away after staying at so many sub-par hotels in Italy. The room was rather spacious, very clean and quiet. Great new windows kept the noise out. Also had the best breakfast of any hotel during my two week stay in Italy.
"Hotel Memphis"
This hotel was difficult to find. Very small but newly updated. 3 of us shared a room. Bathroom was really nice. The breakfast area and food was great. Excellent service by the staff in that area. The male staff at the front desk was not very helpful. Kind of a jerk when we asked about tipping in the restaurants. We spent little time in the room. It […] is a bit scary when you first see the hotel because it is tucked in a little alley but nice inside. No computer to use. Close to Trevi fountain and Spainish Steps. Read more
"Hotel Memphis - Loved it"
Completely refurbished, modern and spotless. Convenient stroll to the Trevi Fountain and the Metro which will get you everywhere. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay!

"Good location for reaching the major sights"
Hotel Memphis is set off a main street in what looks like a small alley. Although I was originally a bit concerned about the location, I quickly realized that all of the major sites are easily accessible from the Hotel Memphis. The metro is approximately 2 blocks away and is very easy to reach. It is also very easy to walk to the Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, […] and Spanish Steps from the hotel. The hotel room was a fairly standard European hotel room that included two twin beds pushed together to create a larger bed. The room was clean and the air conditioning worked well. The only problem I had was that the shower in our bathroom did not drain properly. The hotel included a lovely continental breakfast every morning of our stay. Hotel Memphis is a convenient place to stay if you want to see the major sights in Rome. Read more
"Hotel Memphis - Great for the Trevi Fountain"
New and clean, this was my second stay here and it is about 200m from the Trevi Fountain. Nice breakfast and great friendly staff. The room was small but we tried not to be in it.
"Modern hotel in the heart of Rome"
We enjoyed our stay at the Memphis. Our room was clean, not very spacious, but good enough. The bathroom was spotless and very modern. The location is excellent, 10 to 15 min. walk to Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain and Via Venetto. I highly recommend.
Great Location. Friendly Staff. Clean Room.
"Memphis in Rome"
Too small even for one night. It should be a 3 star hotel. Uncomfortable beds and I got a skin rash, possible bed bug.
"Good overall hotel"
I found this hotel to be overall a good bargain for the money in Rome. The location was decent [though the cab had some difficulty getting into the actual lane the hotel is on]. The lobby could use some design update - it didn't make the best first impression, but the staff was nice and the room was very comfortable and came with a nice little patio. […] Would def recommend rooms on the 4th floor. Location was pretty good - walking distance to Spanish Steps and very close to the subway system. Nice deal for Rome where hotels can be expensive! Read more
"Good location but bad hotel"
Overall the rooms were ok with newer bathrooms. However, the walls were extremely thin, the bed comforter wasn't really a comforter and similar to fabric from an old couch and the room looked out into a dark alley. The front desk staff were extremely unhelpful. They couldn't give dining suggestions and they didn't seem to know where things were located […] when I asked for directions. On top of that there was no wifi in the lobby or rooms. Do not waste your money on this place and find a better hotel. Read more
"Not what we expected fromt the description"
1. This is not a 4-star hotel but 3-star hotel--it has no setting whatsoever but is a small narrow hotel situated in the middle of a dark narrow street. 2. The location was convenient and the rooms were clean, with renovated bathrooms. 3. However, the standard queen room was dark, looked out over a dark alley-way. The walls were tissue-paper thin and […] you could hear people in other rooms. 4. The staff was extremely unhelpful. We asked the front desk where this new museum Maxxi was, and the woman had no idea what we were talking about; they could not print out our boarding pass, even though most hotels will do that for you; the wifi didn't work in the lobby; in general, the front desk was not particularly pleasant at all. 5. The hotel looked nothing like the pictures. 6. I cannot believe that it was rated so highly on hotels.com Read more
"Hotel Memphis Rome - Exellent location in Rome"
We spent 4 nights in middle of April at Hotel Memphis. It's location makes this a number one choice in Rome City center, close to many places worth seeing and the metro station. Rooms are small but comfortable, nice bathrooms and good cleaning. The hotel is located in a small street with small traffic. Can be recomended!
"Clean and convenient"
Excellent location and very clean hotel. Close to trevi fountain and spanish steps. 10 minute walk to the colosseum and forum. Nice breakfast in the morning. Rooms are very small but have everything. Bathroom is lovely. No free wi-fi in lobby as advertised. No hotel bar.
"Great location"
Great location ... HOtel is clean... Breakfast is alright .... Receptionist was alright didn't really offer us a map or advise things to do like in the other hotels we stayed but the hotel is decent ..... Location is just great 5 mins wall to barberini station
"The Memphis Hotel, Rome"
For the price paid the hotel ticked all the boxes. No room with a view but very comfortable modern rooms, with a good breakfast included, and very friendly staff. I did request a twin room but was allocated a double. Problem resolved immediately without fuss. The only downside was no free wi-fi provision anywhere. Management say that it will be free […] in the high season...?? That raises a number of questions / issues for me. Very close to trevi fountain and Berberini metro station so good enough location with quite a few local restaurants and cafes close by. Read more

"very good location"
the location was very central the staff were very friendly and helpful i would really recomend it.
"Memphis, NOT a four star hotel"
We were looking for a 4 star hotel and were very pleased to find this one with a really good customer feedback. The hotel was in really good location, all the main attractions were close and in walking distance. Personnel was also really helpful and friendly, rarely you find personnel like this. BUT, hotel was not a four star hotel; there were only […] plastic glasses available, no bathrobe at all, not a proper hairdryer, no iron either ironing board and only english tv channels were cnn and bbc. We had only a basic room, maybe the other rooms might have better amenities..?? I would recommend this hotel for someone looking for a simple clean three star hotel but if you wait for more, you'll be disappointed. Read more
"Central Rome - close to some key tourist sites"
Positives: good service, comfortable clean room in good condition, good breakfasts, central location. Negatives: located in unattractive street and views from rooms unappealing. On balance represents good value for its central location.
"Memphis Hotel, Rome Italy"
Located on a small back street we were a little nervous what the Memphis would have in store for us. Desk staff were ready for and us and very friendly. Room was very small but very clean. Continental breakfast was wonderful, especially Fabrizio's cappuccino! We were able to walk to all of the local sites with ease.

"Great Location!"
Small room but they all are in Rome, to be expected and you don't need more than that. Hotel was recently renovated, nice. Prime location, just a few minutes walk from Trevi fountain and right next to Metro Barbarini. Was clean and staff provided good service; we ask to change room in order to be on a higher floor (versus ground floor) and they obliged […] the next day when a room became available for us. Read more
Very friendly and helpful staff through out our stay! clean and decent size room, breakfast and morning coffee were very nice, ideal location, walking distance to all the major sights including the vatican and the colloseum both only 10minutes walks! would highly recommend and definetly stay again!
"do not think twice"

"Perfekt läge"
Litet hotell med små rum. Frukosten kunde varit bättre. Perfekt läge med gångavstånd till många sevärdheter. Fräscht och rent. Servicen godkänd.
"Godt placeret midt i Rom"
Hotellet ligger godt placeret midt i Rom tæt på seværdigheder og hyggelige områder med cafeeer og restauranter (lige til højre og venstre for hotellet ligger der to gode italienske restauranter med fornuftige priser). Boede på enkeltværelse som var meget lille, men i god stand. God morgenmad med fin betjening.
"Supersentralt"
Vi bodde tre netter på dette supersentrale hotellet, som ligger mellom trevifontenen og spansketrappen. Gangavstand til serverdigheter som Pantheon, Peterskirken, sixtinske kapell og Colosseum. Mange gode restauranter i umiddelbar nærhet. Frokost og service på hotellet er meget bra. Det eneste som trekker ned på hotellet er meget små rom og til tider […] noe kaldt vann i dusjen. Alt i alt et kjempebra hotell som vi absolutt kan anbefale videre til andre. Read more

"go belliggenhed, dyrt ophold, dårlig service"
Lille hotel med ualmindelig dårlig service - specielt i receptionen. Helt ligeglad med forespørgsler om praktiske ting - og kom med flere urigtige oplysninger, som fik os på 2 lange spildte ture. Hotellet var dyrt og i vores bekræftelse stod der "vindue eller balkon mod byen". Vi fik et værelse med et højtliggende vindue ud til 2x2 meter hul med en […] samling store rør. Kun nødtvunget fik vi et andet værelse. Read more
"Tæt på seværdigheder"
Central beliggende hotel der giver mulighed for en pause på hotellet uden spild af lang transport tid. God morgenmad. Eneste minus var kold vand i hanen en enkelt morgen ud af 4 overnatninger.
This guest did not leave a comment.
"Rigtig god central beliggenhed"
Hotellet har en særdeles god og central beliggenhed - tæt på metroen og med gåafstand til Trevi-fontænen. Der er mange cafeer, restautanter og butikker i nabolaget. Det skal nævnes at sengen på hotellet var så hård at vi begge havde ondt i hofterne og store trykmærker efter at have ligget i den - desuden er værelserne alt for små !!!
