8/10
Colonna Palace is a decent tourist hotel in the heart of Rome. Its best attribute is, undoubtedly , its location. Right across the parliament, and within just a few minutes of walking from the Trevi fountain, and the Pantheon. Just about all of Rome’s major attractions are within a 20-25 minute walk, including the Coliseum and the Vatican.
On the other hand, because the hotel is right in front of the parliament, the square has frequent demonstrations during the day, and loud tourists during some nights, whose noise is noticeable even on the fifth floor.
The room (at least the one I stayed in) was very small, with effectively no space to move around. The toilet was decent size, modern and clean (the full size bidet was a pleasant surprise), however, there was signs of (possibly former) mold on the edges of the bathtub and the walls. Those should have been cleaned.
The breakfast is fine, though there could be a bit more variety in cheese and cold cuts. The pastries were not very good either. There is free WiFi, however, the signal strength was too weak, and the connection was useless. I was unable to use WiFi.
The front staff is attentive and helpful. The rooftop terrace has some spectacular views. Overall, it is not quite the four star hotel it advertises itself; however, there are enough good things about the hotel that I would probably stay here again when I return to Rome.
