About
Hotel Bolognese
Hotel Bolognese is a small 2-star property on Via Palestro in Rome, with just 14 rooms. It sits a 6-minute walk from the MACRO Museum of Contemporary Art and, according to guest reviews, within easy reach of Termini Station. Practical basics include Wi-Fi, luggage storage, 24-hour security and a safe deposit box.
This is a straightforward budget hotel rather than a style-led stay. Reviews consistently mention friendly, helpful hosts, clean rooms and prices that undercut much of central Rome, with rates from £30. Some rooms are compact, and one single room type uses a private external bathroom, so it suits travellers who want a convenient, no-frills overnight base.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
3 reasons to book- Well placed for Termini and MACRO — Guest reviews repeatedly highlight the convenient location, with Termini Station around a 5-10 minute walk away. The MACRO Museum of Contemporary Art is a 6-minute walk from the hotel.
- Friendly, personal hosts — The most consistent theme in the reviews is the welcome. Guests describe the proprietor and staff as friendly, helpful and good English speakers, and the staff rating is 8.2.
- Serious value for money — With rates from £30 and several reviewers describing it as good value, this is a genuinely budget-friendly option in central Rome.
–
Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Wi-Fi is limited to shared areas — Guests say the free internet is in the lobby or lounge, with signal quality that varies; a couple of reviewers mention using it there rather than in the room.
- Rooms are small and basic — One guest describes the room as very small, and comfort and facilities are the lowest-rated categories at 6.4. Air conditioning isn't listed in every room type, so check when booking.
- One single room uses an external bathroom — The Single Room Private External Bathroom means the cheapest solo option isn't fully en suite — worth knowing if that matters to you.

7.6Verified guest“Friendly staff and a location that worked well for visiting the Colosseum. The standard room was surprisingly spacious and cosy, with air conditioning — an overall pleasant stay.”
7.6Verified guest“The proprietor was friendly and helpful, and for the price it was extremely good value compared to other places. My single room had a bed larger than expected, more like a French double. The location was peaceful yet convenient for the city's attractions. Wi-Fi was available in the lobby, though the signal varied, and I was allowed to keep luggage in the room after checkout.”
7.6Verified guest“The hosts were very kind.”
7.6Verified guest“Quiet room with working air conditioning. We got it for only $72, and the location was great, a short 10-15 minute walk to a huge park.”
7.6Verified guest“We really enjoyed the room — compact yet spacious, with central heating, multi-channel TV and tea and coffee facilities. The bed was exceptionally comfortable and the room stayed quiet.”
7.6Verified guest“Very central location close to the metro, so the rest of Rome was easy to reach. The suite we booked was beautifully maintained and quiet, and the whole staff was very, very nice and friendly.”
