The hotel has a very nice design. The staff was very kind and more than willing to help us out. They offered transportation to and from the hotel, but with a fee. We did not use that service instead we used the bus transportation system by getting a 48-hour bus ticket which allowed us to use the buses wherever we want in those 48 hours. Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay at Palazzo Medusa.

Lovely stay! I used to live in the area, and coming back to see friends, this was a great base. The building is tastefully decorated and it’s clear the proprietor pays attention to detail. It is a classic historical central Rome building with wood panelling ceilings and original tiled floors - my favourite kind. Features including a kettle, tea, coffee, water and fully stocked mini-bar are not overlooked. Good quality sheets and towels and complimentary toiletries are not always expected in 3* establishments. The concierge service is efficient and prompt. The hotel also offers additional services including transfers and tours. If you want an authentic Roman experience, at a reasonable price, I highly recommend a stay here. Thanks to all at Palazzo Medusa!

This was one of my favorite stays for our trip through Italy. The neighborhood was very quiet, yet it’s very convenient for the bus stop, taxis, and the best restaurants nearby. Valentina was lovely at check-in. What a lovely hotel.

Matthew was excellent with check in and check out. He was helpful with recommendations for tours, transportation and dining. The property is very dark inside the rooms. I found it hard to do makeup in the low light. Free bottled water is provided daily which was a nice touch.

Great little hotel in supreme location
It's a really small hotel (6 rooms), but its condition is great. Everything in the room was almost new. Everything functioned. Hotel management is onsite in the morning only, but always reachable and very helpful. Cleaning was generally good, but did not include daily vacuuming. The hotel is in a little side street, and doesn't look like a hotel from the outside. But its location is supreme - we walked to Piazza Navona, Trevi fountain, Spanish stairs/Villa di Medici, forum/Colosseum/Palatine hill, Curia Pompeii, and the Vatican. The area is chockful of restaurants, gelaterias, little shops, etc. There are also several supermarkets nearby. I don't think the location can be beaten.

We selected this property based on location, reasonable price for 1 night after a long cruise, air conditioning, elevator and staffed check-in. The staff made several points of outreach in the days leading up to our arrival to coordinate check in. Greatly appreciated that. The entryway was very welcoming and the elevator was modern (though small) - more reliable than another Rome property we stayed at before our cruise. The room was spacious, there were wood beams along the ceiling and shutters on the window that added character to the decor. The bathroom was also spacious and was very modern. The bed was comfy and there was complimentary tea, coffee and water in the room. Also, the person that checked us in, showed us where to find WiFi and after hours contact info, plus after she left our room she messaged us helpful suggestions for nearby restaurants, attractions, transport, etc. we enjoyed our stay and felt safe in the area.

Quiet and Restful Stay
The room is close to transport and you can easily get to attractions on the bus. Don't even think about hiring a car! Parking is impossible. The room was very quiet and comfortable with airconditioning. Windows open also if necessary. The bed was a Kingsize double and there is a private bathroom. Tea and coffee making facilities were provided. The hotel has a lift, but we used the (steep) stairs. The hotel is located in a small and quiet laneway. There's no front desk as such, but staff are available at certain hours. We had a small maintenance issues that was attended to immediately.
