Nice, clean hotel close to all the sites in Rome.

Karen was exceptionally helpful and accommodating. Would highly recommend this stay for its location, quality, and convenience.

10/10 Excellent

The hosts were very helpful and welcoming during our stay. She even gave us tips on where to go for the short limited time we were there
HUY, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The staff were excellent. Karen in particular was willing to work with our needs, such as having some breakfast items available for early departure. Because it is a B&B and not a hotel, the sign can be easily missed. Also, odd and even number addresses are on the same side of the street. Do not confuse with the similarly named Merulana Guesthouse.

The place to stay

What a great place to stay. Great location and great service. Everything was wonderful.
John, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Super nice people working there. Andrea and the other ladies working at the reception were lovely & super helpfull before our arrival (easily available via whatsapp) and during our stay for tips for best transportation methods etc. Room was clean, very calm at night even though located in historic centre. The smart tv has Netflix. The rooms stay nice and cool during the heatwave because the airco can stay on even when you leave.
Stephanie, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

What a wonderful experience! The BEST shower EVER! What a view from room #4! Close to everything!
Shari, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Excellent hotel. Very walkable from train with lots of dining options nearby. Better water pressure than I have at home in the States! Staff were all very lovely and breakfast was delicious. Will stay there again the next time we’re in Rome.

Convenient and comfortable

Nice, simple accommodation. Perfect location to explore by foot. Very nice staff.
brian, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I stayed at Hotel Merulana from June 20–25 and had a truly wonderful experience. The hotel is in a fantastic location — walking distance to major sites like the Colosseum and Santa Maria Maggiore, and surrounded by charming restaurants and cafes. The room was spotless, quiet, and comfortably furnished with modern touches like USB charging ports and strong Wi-Fi. The bed was cozy, and the air conditioning worked perfectly during the hot summer days. What really stood out was the exceptional service. The staff were welcoming, helpful, and always available with great local tips. They made me feel truly cared for. Breakfast was simple but fresh and satisfying, with good coffee and a nice variety of pastries and fruit. The overall atmosphere of the hotel was peaceful and well-maintained, giving it a boutique charm. I highly recommend Hotel Merulana for anyone visiting Rome. It’s a perfect blend of comfort, location, and outstanding hospitality. I’ll definitely return on my next trip to the city.
Kingsley, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The hospitality here is unmatched! Karen was so kind and welcoming to us. We inquired regarding a mattress topper after our first night and they gladly installed one for us. We were so appreciative of the top notch customer service. Great location, felt safe, and property was secure yet easy to navigate. Air conditioning and elevator!
Alexa, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I liked the property. Although not luxurious or 4-star, it was quite adequate. Karen and Amanda were helpful and lovely.
Paula, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Execellent

Our stay at Merulana Inn was incredible.It is small hotel with only 6 rooms located in down town of Rome. Very clean, modern with touch of antics and nicely decorated. The breakfast was very good with a lot of cold cuts,cheeses , fruits and pastries. The staff is very professional, helpful and kind. They went above and beyond to make us feel home.
Paul C, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

I like everything but is a little overpriced compared to more places around, I stay two nights but basically was just for shower and few hours to sleep, I found another place around for half price and breakfast included as well… I will recommend to look in the same area for half price just in case
Flor, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I had a great stay at Merulana Inn. The staff was very helpful and courteous. The room had everything I could need. The location was great. A short walk to the metro and bus lines.
Robert, 4-night trip

Excellent staff and accommodations!! Highly recommend!
joseph, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Owner was the most hospitable. Place itself was clean, stocked up with basic things, and locationally was great as it as walkable to the train station. The only thing to note is that the rooms aren’t very sound proof, but we had no issues with noise during our stay.
Judy, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Extremely kind and caring staff! Super comfortable stay!
Sammia, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Wonderful short stay in this convenient little gem. Breakfasts were excellent and Fannie was very helpful with recommendations for lunch and dinner
Kathleen, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This was a great place to stay in Rome. Very convenient to the train station and very walkable to so many things. The room was clean and perfect for us. Karen, the front desk staff was so sweet and friendly and extremely helpful. ❤️ They had a breakfast every morning that was just right to start the day! The only thing to be aware of when booking a hotel in Italy in March/April is that it may be warm and AC is not turned on until later in the season. We ended up buying a fan to help and it worked out perfectly. Highly recommend this lovely place!
Laura, 5-night trip
