le else to rave about.
Posted 22 Aug 2019 on HotelsWe picked this hotel because it was near Rome and offered all we needed. The staff at this hotel could not be more helpful, however the hotels appearance lets it down from the moment you arrive. When we turned up at the location we were a little concerned to say the least with regards to the site that awaited us; beer bottles strewn across the roadside by the bridge and a pile of rubbish which someone had disposed off. This along with the graffiti left us wishing we’d chosen somewhere else. The room itself was nice enough; although please be aware that the building seems to shake when the tram passes by and the tram passes frequently. Also we feel it should make you aware that the free parking is not parking as we’d have expected it, instead you dump your car on the roadside near the hotel. We hoped that breakfast might be the saving grace for this place, however this was not the case: choices were limited, you had to ask for drinks and one morning we didn’t even have cheese just a small selection of ham and a handful of pastries.
We certainly wouldn’t be returning to this hotel, and that is not the fault of the staff who could not have been more pleasant.

NEEDS UPGRADE
Posted 21 Jul 2018This hotel was out dated. Needs new paint on walls and furniture. The balcony off our room needs a good cleaning. The lady that runs the hotel was one of the sweetest in Europe!! Very hard worker !!!

Interesting Old Hotel
Posted 3 Jul 2018
Pros: It has a nice cozy breakfast parlor open from 6:30 AM to 11 AM serving a variety of meats, cheeses, breads, fruits, and pastries. Great staff!
Cons: It'd be nice if they added an elevator somehow.
Location: Adjacent to the Number 19 tram and bus lines which seem to connect to all the good stuff - the Roman ruins, the rail terminal and the Vatican.
I enjoyed this quirky old hotel very much. It's an elevator-less four floor old building with oddly juxtaposed levels, almost like an M C Escher drawing. For all that, it's very elegant, cozy and dignified. My room was immaculate and very comfortable, even if my bathroom was four marble steps down from the sleeping level. Each floor has sitting rooms and terraces with lattice walls, grape vines and flowering shrubs. It's in a very old neighborhood, San Lorenzo, adjacent to the University of Rome and loaded with terrific little restaurants. The lack of an elevator assures you'll get some exercise when you come back from your meals. Of course, this hotel is NOT for mobility-challenged persons.

A small but reasonable price with a fresh breakfas
Posted 19 May 2018 on HotelsA small hotel but clean and cozy with full fresh breakfast for a very reasonable price. Even though the hotel is not in the central location but it is easily accessible through trams to central. It requires some walking to tram stations. Staff are very helpful and friendly. We came back after few days to Sorrento. It would be better if the shower room is a little bigger to move around. Overall, this hotel is a good place to stay for a short period of time for transition.

Beautiful basepoint
Posted 6 Mar 2018
Pros: Good transport links
Good Location
Excellent rooms
Excellent staff
Location: 3 minute walk from a Tram stop
5 minute walk from a bus stop
30 second walk (if that!) from a bakery
3 minute walk to a shop/restaurant/bar
L'Hotel Vibel was an absolute gem! Excellent facilities, clean and comfortable rooms, close to easy to use transport links to and from Termini Station and the Colosseum, there's a bakery around the corner and a convenience store and a burger bar/restaurant just up the road - it was everything you needed for a base. The staff couldn't have been more helpful! During out visit Rome experienced some unusual adverse weather which caused a small leak in our room, but we were quickly moved with no questions or hassle and they moved our bags for us when we'd left for the day as the room we were moving to wasn't yet vacated. Breakfast was lovely, good selection of breads, fruits, juices, cereals and pastries. Coffee was made as and when so it was lovely and fresh. Staff were also willing and able to give us advice on transport in snowy conditions as services were severely limited and even upon our departure we were given a bottle of water to take on our trip to Vatican City. Overall the building was lovely, the rooms were a fair size and the bathrooms were well equipped (Hairdryer and showercaps included - bonus!), and communal spaces were inviting and comfortable.
Due to the weather, we missed out on a lot of sights that Rome has to offer so we are planning to go back later this year - We will 100% be booking in at L'Hotel Vibel again!!
