If you want a great Rome experience in a hotel that's not a chain American hotel, this is a wonderful place. The rooms are large and comfortable, service is great, and the people staying there are a blend of nationalities. Sure, plenty of English speaking people, and the staff is pretty much bilingual (at least), but a real international clientele. And it's 3 blocks from the colosseum. The terrace, on the top floor, has a view, so you can eat or have a drink and look at the colosseum. Most sites are within walking distance, and we never took a cab or the metro while we were there.

The hotel itself was lovely. Centrally located, comfortable—breakfast was great. Joseph is amazing. Decent view of Colosseo though I wouldn’t call it panoramic. There are some actual local restaurants, not tourist traps, nearby. In those regards, we were very pleased. Breakfast was great, especially for the price. Based on prices...

The hotel itself was lovely. Centrally located, comfortable—breakfast was great. Joseph is amazing. Decent view of Colosseo though I wouldn’t call it panoramic. There are some actual local restaurants, not tourist traps, nearby. In those regards, we were very pleased. Breakfast was great, especially for the price. Based on prices around the area my wife and I probably would’ve spent more on cappuccinos at a restaurant than we did the whole brekky at the hotel. The rest of the staff, awful. “Missing” shoes, ignoring DND sign on door afterwards. I won’t return. I expected better for the price. Housekeeping times varied wildly and they were frustrated if we need a quick change or to charge our phones before heading back out into the city. The staff was truly awful except for Joseph at breakfast and one of the night shift front desk employees

In addition to being a few blocks away from the colosseum there are a number of basilicas within walking distance. We stayed here mainly for that reason. Walked to 5 basilicas and took the metro (b line) to another over a 2 day stay. Very convenient. Also want to recognize...

In addition to being a few blocks away from the colosseum there are a number of basilicas within walking distance. We stayed here mainly for that reason. Walked to 5 basilicas and took the metro (b line) to another over a 2 day stay. Very convenient. Also want to recognize Katia at the front desk. She was great from the time we arrived after a long flight from the states. She also made some excellent dining recommendations.

Fantastic location, superb service and fantastic breakfasts. The staff are extremely helpful and knowledgeable. A central location to enjoy the magical sights that Rome has to offer. The hotel offers a superb view of the collesium from the roof top.

Great visit to Rome, lovely hotel - so handy for seeing this beautiful city. Stayed before 9 years ago and loved it, returned end of August and was not disappointed- lovely staff so helpful and breakfast on the roof terrace overlooking the coliseum- breathtaking.

We occupied room 416 which had a private terrace overlooking the iconic Colosseum. We used that terrace constantly from an orange juice in the morning, afternoon cocktail hour, and a nightcap in the evening. Capo D'Africa Hotel is perfectly situated in the beautiful city of Rome.

We used that terrace constantly from an orange juice in the morning, afternoon cocktail hour, and a nightcap in the evening. Capo D'Africa Hotel is perfectly situated in the beautiful city of Rome. The front desk personnel were very helpful and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed breakfast on their breakfast terrace each and every morning.

A number of things made this a special place to stay to explore ancient Rome. The hotel is located within easy walking distance of the colosseum and the other attractions of ancient Rome. So, we were able to pull up in front of the hotel with our rented car; have the porter take our luggage and the valet park our car in the hotel garage and forget about while we walked around old Rome. The room was ample in size and very attractive. There are many restaurants in the area and the hotel restaurant is also quite good with a view of the Colosseum. Breakfast is served there as well and was a buffet with options for ordering as well. Definitely the place to be for our needs. Highly recommended.

This hotel has some excellent rooms and some that need improvement. We had an excellent one and the beds and sheets were great. Breakfast was also excellent. Front Desk staff run hot and cold: one day, they are friendly and helpful; the next day, they are almost hostile. Excellent location...

This hotel has some excellent rooms and some that need improvement. We had an excellent one and the beds and sheets were great. Breakfast was also excellent. Front Desk staff run hot and cold: one day, they are friendly and helpful; the next day, they are almost hostile. Excellent location by the Coliseum and plenty if restaurants- nearly all of them tourist traps. Eat outside the area. Anyway, I'll stay again.

Hotel is in a nice little neighborhood near the colosseum. Room was lovely. We paid for breakfast included and it met every need. They have a rooftop bar area which was just the thing for a before dinner drink. Staff were attentive and friendly. Restaurants recommended by hotel were terrific....

Hotel is in a nice little neighborhood near the colosseum. Room was lovely. We paid for breakfast included and it met every need. They have a rooftop bar area which was just the thing for a before dinner drink. Staff were attentive and friendly. Restaurants recommended by hotel were terrific. We walked all over rome and were happy to come back to this hotel,after a long day. Would stay here again.

Rooms were comfortable and close to the coliseum. Breakfast was great. My only complaint is miscommunication with staff regarding making a reservation for dinner at the top deck our last night. He said it wasn’t necessary. When we arrived for dinner, the hostess seemed surprised to see and serve us...

Rooms were comfortable and close to the coliseum. Breakfast was great. My only complaint is miscommunication with staff regarding making a reservation for dinner at the top deck our last night. He said it wasn’t necessary. When we arrived for dinner, the hostess seemed surprised to see and serve us . It wasn’t too crowded at the time around 7:30. However we were served in a side outside table and the service and food was great. Would recommend hotel

This out-of-the-way four star hotel is absolutely lovely. The breakfast was very nice, the service was superb, and the staff is incredible. It is conveniently located to the Colosseum and great little neighborhood restaurants. I highly recommend staying here.

This hotel is pure luxury! We loved our stay here. Very clean, amazing bath tub and loved their bath robes! Restaurant was excellent for Dinner and breakfast. Rooftop bar area was awesome. Highly recommend this hotel and restaurant. It is in the heart of the Colessium area.

We stayed at the hotel for a long weekend. The position is great and the staff is superb!! The hotel it’s basically new and there is an elegant touch to it.We really enjoyed our stay and looking forward to our next trip to Rome. Thank you for your incredible professionalism!!

We had a great time at the Roomate Mia Colosseum. The hotel provided an amazing room on the top floor with a view of the Colosseum and close to the roof top bar. Giovanni on the front seat was such a great help to us but also all the other staff were wonderful, friendly and helpful. The hotel was in a quiet street but only a short walk from great restaurants and also the Colosseum. Highly recommend this hotel.

We found the hotel excellent for service, comfort, location, atmosphere. The staff were so helpful , the room was very clean, comfortable and fresh - towels and sheets amazing. Great breakfast and the rooftop bar was a great place to have an evening drink. Restaurant also very good

Superb stay at this lovely hotel down a nice quiet street near to the Colosseum. Fantastic service from all the staff, with special mention to Giovanni and Luisiana in the front office that gave us special service and help when we accidentally y lost our credit card wallet in Rome....

Superb stay at this lovely hotel down a nice quiet street near to the Colosseum. Fantastic service from all the staff, with special mention to Giovanni and Luisiana in the front office that gave us special service and help when we accidentally y lost our credit card wallet in Rome. Both went out of their way to help us. Nav and Sebastian in the Dining room were marvellous and we thoroughly enjoyed a few meals there (as well as in the many superb Italian restaurants close by). All in all, a wonderful week in a superb Hotel. Peaceful, quiet and comfortable.

We had such a fantastic experience at Room Mate Mia in Rome! From the moment we arrived, the front desk staff were helpful, easy to communicate with, and very attentive to our needs. They gave us excellent recommendations for authentic Roman restaurants, which really added to our experience. Our room was spotless, bright, and welcoming—exactly what we needed after long days of sightseeing. Dining at La Veranda on the terrace was also a treat. We enjoyed both breakfast and dinner there, and the view made it even more special. Breakfast felt like home thanks to the warm and friendly staff. Giulia was especially delightful—her bubbly personality and cheerful greetings made our mornings something to look forward to. We’ll truly miss our daily conversations with her. We highly recommend Room Mate Mia to anyone visiting Rome and would absolutely stay here again on a future trip! 💛

We booked this hotel the night before our arrival after having an awful experience at another hotel across town, specifically Hotel Julia. Arriving at this hotel felt like a breath of fresh air after the nightmare we had just endured. The staff was polite, the cleanliness was immaculate, and they even helped us with our bags to the room. The plush bathrobes provided in our rooms were a nice touch as well. Overall, it is a top-notch hotel. If I were to nit-pick, I would say the terrace restaurant is a bit overrated.

6 nights in July. We had a deluxe room for the extra space. Even so, the room wasn't that spacious but was adequate enough. The bed was huge and comfy. Certainly not as hard as most of the 4 star hotels we usually stay in. The shower was a powerful...

6 nights in July. We had a deluxe room for the extra space. Even so, the room wasn't that spacious but was adequate enough. The bed was huge and comfy. Certainly not as hard as most of the 4 star hotels we usually stay in. The shower was a powerful rainfall/hand-held. The air-con worked well. There were also some really good extra touches in the room: - A Dyson hair dryer, which my wife was really happy with. Even I know that most hotel hair dryers are dreadful. - A makeup/shaving mirror in the bathroom. - A bathrobe that was actually big enough to fit me! The rooftop restaurant and bar are really good, but most nights they had non-resident events going on, so the residents didn't really get to appreciate it fully. Breakfast on the rooftop was excellent with loads of choice, with the option to sit inside or out. The staff were all really friendly, welcoming and helpful. It's just 5 minutes or so from the Colosseum and Forum, which is great, but makes for a longer walk in the heat to the city centre. Just a couple of niggles. Our room wasn't serviced one day, and on another housekeeping turned the temperature up on the air-con (32°outside, so didn't appreciate that). We would definitely stay again.

Room Mate Collection Mia was a wonderful stay. Just steps from the Colosseum, with friendly staff, spotless rooms, and stylish design.

Room Mate Collection Mia was a wonderful stay. Just steps from the Colosseum, with friendly staff, spotless rooms, and stylish design. We loved the rooftop terrace and thoughtful extras like robes, slippers, and a great minibar. Dinner at the hotel was nice, though not exceptional. Overall, a clean, modern, and perfectly located hotel we’d happily return to.
