Very good hotel with very attentive staff!
A great hotel that met all the necessary requirements. We were very comfortable and the staff's treatment was exceptional.
We took away a great impression of the hotel and we especially appreciate the great attention from María Cristina and Roberta. Thank you!

An Oasis of Calm
The Occidental Aurelia provides an oasis of calm in a very busy city. We stayed here for 2 nights before our Mediterranean cruise, and 2 nights afterwards, initially choosing it on the basis that Princess Cruise coaches depart from here.
The staff are excellent, particularly Stefania on reception. She provided everything we needed to know about getting into Rome by bus and metro, what to do and where to eat. She really helped us to make the most out of few days in Rome.
The rooms we had were both on the first floor. Clean and comfortable with mini fridge and a safe. Bathrooms were spacious. The hotel was wonderfully peaceful.
We got some snacks and drinks in the bar and the breakfast room was very well managed. Food was fresh and there was plenty of choice. I was very impressed by the gluten-free bread station! Staff everywhere - from waiters to cleaners - were lovely.
The location is definitely outside of the city centre and the roads around the hotel are frighteningly narrow, but the transport links are excellent and easy to use - buses to the Vatican stop directly in front of the hotel and you pay on board by tapping your debit card. It was actually very nice to return to the tranquility of the Occidental!
It's not super fancy, it's clean, comfortable and calm.

Dear Guest,
Thank you for providing your comments; they are greatly valued.
We are delighted our peaceful atmosphere provided the perfect retreat during your Roman holiday. It is wonderful to hear Stefania’s guidance enhanced your exploration of the city and that your rooms met your expectations for comfort and space.
While our location offers tranquility away from bustling areas, we understand the surrounding streets can feel challenging to navigate. We appreciate your understanding as we balance accessibility with the serene environment many guests value.
Nonetheless, we are pleased our transport connections made exploring effortless. The direct bus to Vatican City and thoughtful breakfast options, including dietary accommodations, aim to create memorable experience for every traveler.
We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back to our hotel in the future. Kind regards,
General Manager

Calm place to stay with very helpful staff
Hitel provides a calm and peaceful place to stay when visiting Rome. The pool is great for cooling down after a day of walking and sight seeing.
Staff are great, cheerful and alway happy to help. Variety and quality of Breakfast was very good.
We opted for two family rooms with joining door. Both the rooms and bathrooms were spacious and kept very clean each day by staff which was great.
The hotel is a 10min bus ride from the city centre and there are bus stops right outside the hotel making travel easy. Taxis can be booked using the 'free now' app and always arrived very quickly as well.

I emailed the hotel direct a few weeks prior to see if they they offered airport transfer and they did , Maria was absolutely brilliant on the email arranging this , we had private transfer and Maurizto messaged me to say he was waiting outside and was brilliant. Only took about 30 mins and cost euro 65 . Hotel also arranged from transfer back too . ( if you are on early flight they will also do you a breakfast bag to go which was brilliant too )
