    Pros +

    • Nice location and staff.
    • Terrible. Do not stay here.
    • A conveniently located hotel near Roma Termini - a huge public transportation hub. The hotel is a walking distance to the main attractions and is surrounded by convenience stores and nice restaurants. The staff is very friendly and polite and the room was very clean and spacious. We couldn't wish for more, especially given the low cost of the stay!

    Cons -

    • Smoking in the halls. Shower stall leaked.
    • The receptionist was talking loudly at 23:00 for hours, it disturbed me because I wanted to sleep. The toilet water was running because the water button is broken.
    • I typically don't leave reviews but considering how terrible this stay was I made an exception. I chose Hotel Meridiana because it was cheap. That turned out to be a huge mistake. Whatever money I “saved” wasn’t remotely worth the experience I had to endure, and I would have gladly paid more to stay literally anywhere else.Check-in was painfully slow, disorganized, and handled by staff who seemed both clumsy and openly rude. They somehow forgot to scan my girlfriend’s ID, which you’d think would be the end of it, but no. Instead of handling their own mistake professionally, they came to our room **in the middle of the night**, banging on the door to demand the ID they failed to take earlier. That alone was completely unacceptable and aggressive.The overall attitude of the staff was harsh, unwelcoming, and inhospitable from start to finish. On top of that, the front desk staff appeared unhygienic, with a strong, unpleasant odor, and one employee had a visibly severe skin condition on his head that looked like open wounds. It was deeply uncomfortable and only added to how unprofessional and unsettling the whole interaction felt. More importantly, he was cold, unkind, and made us feel like an inconvenience rather than guests.I’ve stayed in many hotels at many price points, and this was easily one of the worst staff experiences I’ve ever had. Cheap does not excuse rudeness, incompetence, or disrespect. Do yourself a favor: **do not stay here**. Spend more money and save yourself the frustration and discomfort.

    Good location. Attentive and helpful staff, available 24/7. Affordable and good for spontaneous travel.

    Great room, pretty comfortable but as we walked in we felt an overwhelming smell of cigarettes.

    The room is 4 flights of stairs up with no lift and the door to the floor can only be unlocked by the person working on the reception. More than once we came in after walking the whole day and the person on the reception was sleeping. We had to go down the stairs to wake them up and walk back up to get to the room.

    The staff was very kind and friendly.

    The room was on the fourth floor, but there was no elevator, so I had to carry my heavy suitcase up the stairs. I had to ask the reception to open and close a door to enter the hotel area, so I couldn't come in and out freely. There was no desk in the hotel room. The area around the hotel was not clean and it felt a bit unsafe.

    It was clean and quiet with a comfortable bed, staff interaction good.

    First room we were given was awful , window opening into laundry and stank of bleach. Dark and gloomy.Requested another room and were given one which was much better, have to ask why that one wasn’t offered first?!

    5MariePosted on: 11-6-2025

    Located pretty close to the train station and the Filipino restaurant on the corner is amazing.

    Couldn’t get the AC to work properly and it was very small although I know not small by Italian standards. The pictures online look much better, overpriced and there is no elevator.

    Cleanliness and staff very helpful

    No lifts

    8OlgaPosted on: 10-25-2025

    The location was super, only a 10 minute walk from Roma Termini. The staff was helpful and the 24 hour front desk was perfect, since we had an early flight. The bed was comfortable and the shower was great.

    It was very loud when we were trying to fall asleep, since there was a restaurant downstairs with people singing. Small room, not much space. The room walls looked scratched and dirty. The staircase leading to the room seems to have been undergoing renovations.

    7Andreas_veracruzPosted on: 10-25-2025

    The staff of the hotel is very attentive, polite and ready to resolve any issue. Always smiling and with great attitude. Excellent location if you travel in the country by train. Easy to move in the city as well.

    It is really a pity but it was difficult to sleep properly because of the noise of other guests - mostly loud voices from the lobby during the whole night. The street is quiet. But, of course, we are not able to change people. Something about soundproof doors could be a solution.

    Excellent location, overall good value for money

    Room not in good condition needs renovation asap

    9MerzaPosted on: 10-17-2025

    The room is clean, staff are nice and the location is amazing

    The pillows are not comfortable at all

    10StephyPosted on: 8-5-2025

    First thing first, THE STAFF, they were amazing, so helpful and so nice! they checked us in early, gave us tips and tricks for around town and they even gave us this card for a restaurant which they recommended with a especial sweet given to the customer if you give them the car, we actually went there and the food in this restaurant is top notch! The staff also greeted us with a huge smile every time we walked into the hotel. The hotel its self gives off old vibes, but it's a great value for money! Everything was clean, the bathroom was also clean, there was AC, hair dryer, TV and everything.

    It's not located near the city center but its so easy to get there from the hotel.

    10MadalinaPosted on: 7-25-2025
