Travellers Reviews
Submitted by jim noonan, United Kingdom
Hotel Le Petit was a wonderful place to stay. Anyone staying there should realise that it's a small place, just a floor of a lovely building, but it's very clean and the staff are really friendly and helpful. If you're a middle class traveller who just needs a very comfortable and well positioned base it's ideal. Just outside is a great tabachi, followed by a superb delicattessen and bar and a lovely restaurant. It's really well placed for the metro and you only have to walk to see either the main sites or access great backstreets with a eide range of restaurants and cafes. Go for it. ... great stay, we'd stay there again and Rome was stunning ... Need to clarify the difference between the real balcony room and the small balcony rooms

Staff was always available and polite. The remote control did not work properly but was never replaced. The telephone did not work. The room permitted too much noise from the street. WAY too much noise. Rooms were extremely clean and cozy. Breakfast was quite enjoyable. Extremely convinient to transportation. ... Please work on the noise. It was really bothersome at times. ... Charming and well located hotel. Quite affordable. Ask for a room away from the street.

very happy with hotel and staff have already put a recommendation on trip advisors web site - only down side (although wouldnt stop me using hotel again) was a lot of noise from street due to volume of traffic. Would request room on the other side of hotel next time.
Staff also contacted our taxi service to book our return journey to airport for us ... Staff very helpful and looked after our bags from checkout time which allowed us full day to continue our sightseeing before having to go to airport. ... Hotel Le Petit - Magnifique! excellent for those on a budget & for those like me who were experiencing their first visit to Rome then staff couldnt have been more helpful in helping me find how to get to all the sites

The room was exactly as the ones posted on the website, the website gave the impression that the hotel was a lot bigger though.

A small, nice city-hotel near to the termini station and the tube. Good for a stay in Rom for a few days to visit the sights of this beautiful city. Single disadvantage: the noise from the traffic on the street. But that's normal: it's a city-hotel.

very pleasent staff as we arrived at 2am but this was not a problem ... we booked two rooms, the size of the rooms varied greatly, one was spacious the other was very small. Stale cigarette smoke smell in one room which was not very pleasent to a non smoker, could they have separate non smoking room? ... Good hotel, good location, would stay here again

My partner and I were a little worried when we arrived at the hotel entrance as building work was taking place. This work made the entrance very untidy and at times noisy - I understand this needed doing but it made you think the hotel was in a state of disrepair.
The breakfast facilities was very basic - I would like to see more selection, maybe a selection of cold meats and cheeses for a continental breakfast. Maybe croissants and cereal is a typically Italian breakfast?? ... Small but tidy with a basic breakfast. Nicely situated near the Metro. Polite staff willing to help.

I just would tell anyone to bring their own hairdryer. The one supplied by the hotel is ancient and is totally unacceptable. I wish I had known because I didn't take my own hairdryer based on the hotel's description of its amenities. That's really my only complaint. It was a truly nice hotel. ... See #10 ... Great location, friendly staff, clean accommodations.

We had made a reservation for a driver from the hotel to pick us up at the airport. He was not there upon our arrival. We called the hotel who called his cell phone and said he WAS there. After a few more phone calls and 45 minutes of waiting, we ended up taking a taxi. This was not a great way to start the trip. ... The room was VERY small. This is not a big problem, but it certainly appeared more spacious on the website. The one issue that was important was that the bed was so hard that it was extremely uncomfortable - almost as hard as sleeping on the floor. ... Excellent location - one block away from the metro and within walking distance from many sites. Helpful and friendly staff and reasonable prices. Be aware that the rooms are small. Unfortunately, the fact that the bed was so incredibly hard would make me suggest looking for another hotel in the same area.
