Ripa Hotel

We spent a week here in January, and chose the hotel based on the photos of the rooms. We had room 618, which was quite sizeable. As well as bathroom, there was a section separate from the bed, with a couch, a table, hot and cold drinks facilities.

The staff were warm and accommodating - helped us with our Italian language and with things to do and see in the area.

Breakfast was excellent - great choice of food and drink. 

It's a short walk into the eateries of Strastevere or a tram ride into the centre of Rome from this hotel, as well as the Colosseum.

The gym has most things you'd want from a gym, although a couple of the pieces of equipment have seen better days, such that you wouldn't want to use them, but on the whole a small but well stocked gym.

Great Sized Rooms, Super Breakfasts,

Great stay at the Hotel and they played a good remake of "Stumblin' In" at the "White Space breakfast room.  Wonderful selection of tasty breakfast dishes and drinks!  Get there before 8 am and hear "Stumblin In".  I love the song, but maybe not the staff...so much? ;)

Holiday! :)

We stayed at the hotel on our last visit in November 2024, following a 10 day cruise in the Mediterranean. This was the perfect spot that in central access to the city without the congestion. 
It was our home away from home because we enjoyed our first visit in 2018. The staff was very accommodating as our reservation was without advance notice. We enjoyed dinner at the restaurant where the staff and chef were also warm and friendly and the breakfast buffet with excellent food to start and end your active day.
This will be our base and recommendation for our friends to visit when in Rome.
Yes renovations are needed to update the facilities and lighting to highlight the features that are an eclectic modern fusion style.

Home Away from Home

This hotel is definitely not worthy of a four star review. Whilst the communal areas were nice, having quirky giant dogs, flamingos and gorillas and  a couple of lips sofas, does not make up for the fact that the room we stayed in was outdated, old fashioned and disappointing. The balcony we were promised didn’t have any furniture, only a leaky air conditioning unit and overlooked a service road at the side of the hotel. The bathroom had a shower over bath arrangement, with no safety rails and only had a shower curtain. The bathroom was mouldy and not what I would expect in a 4 star hotel. Room fixtures were adequate but no water was provided by the hotel. Again as a four stair I would have expected this as standard. Beds were hard but surprisingly comfortable and the rooms were serviced on request. Breakfast space (white space) was again filled with what must be thought to be quirky decoration which did little to detract from the fact we were sitting on plastic uncomfortable chairs and gave little privacy from other diners and felt like a school dinner hall at times. Ripa Place ( the hotel evening restaurant /bar) was nice but had a very limited menu. Food was good although the pasta dishes were extremely salty. Location wise hotel is well placed near to local shops/ bus stops and about a half mile walk to the main parts of Trastevere will lots of little shops and restaurants. Overall I wouldn’t recommend staying here - it was not the 4 star experience we paid for.
