Mercure Roma Centro Colosseo

Hotel was pretty good, nice comfy bed, free water and juice, great location. My two complaints are, it really really needed paint. The reception desk looked like people had been rubbing dirt on it person height for years and all of the walls in the room had scuffs, blood? On them. It also had a very heavy perfume smell that they seemed to spray after ever room cleaning. Other than that, it was pretty good.

We booked a non-smoking room with a Colosseum view with breakfast included. When we arrived around 9pm, we were told that my daughter's breakfast was not included and would be 10 euros additional per day. The clerk assigned us our room on the 1st floor (Europe - the floor above the ground floor). Upon going into the room, I smelled a smell that I first thought of as dirty sweat sock - turns out it was cigarette smoke, although they'd obviously cleaned the room up to lessen the odor - turns out we seemed to be on the only smoking floor in the hotel (see picture of elevator button bank). I looked out the window to see my view and found that if I went all the way over to the left of the window I got barely a bare glimpse of the Colosseum (see picture of my view of the trees outside the window). The breakfast buffet was not great, although nothing was bad, per se. Overall, I would not pay the same amount of money for the room and service I received, even in the location the hotel was in.

Rooftop was amazing! Watched the sunset behind colosseum and then a full moon after that. By far the best place we stayed in Rome!

We stayed here for our 10 year wedding anniversary and it was perfect! the location was brilliant. We didn't eat in the hotel and the drinks were a little pricey but you are overlooking the coliseum so its worth it! Would recommend

Great pool and Bar on the roof with incredible views of the Colosseum, very friendly staff at the front desk.
