We stayed at Hotel Grifo for 8 nights from January 28-February 5 and found the location amazing. It was a 15 minute walk to Termini Station, 10 minute walk to the Colosseum/Forum, and a 5 minute walk to the nearest taxi stand by Santa Maria Maggiore. The staff was always friendly and the breakfast consisted of cereals, breakfast breads, coffee,... More

This was my third time in Rome, but my first time in Hotel Grifo. My boyfriend and I stayed here from January 19th to January 22nd, 2012. We booked through Expedia and paid a total of 162 Euro for a three night stay, which is an unbeatable price for the location! You can walk to every attraction, and take a... More

We stayed here for 5 nights in the summer of 2011. Very small, basic room. Beds were not too comfortable, but all seemed clean. Refrigerator was broken, but quickly replaced. Air conditioning strength was poor. Thank goodness for the terrace! After a very long day of sightseeing, it was nice to be able to sit outside and relax with our... More

Our family of 4 stayed there in late Nov-early December 2011. I am writing this because I had benefited from all the reviews of this and other hotels I got from Tripadvisor 1) great location - easy to zip back and use the toilets if necessary. Highly recommend you walk to/from all locations, even the Vatican City which is the... More

We stayed at Hotel Grifo for 5 nights in December 2011. Our initial impression of our quad room was a bit disappointing , but the beds were comfortable, the breakfast adequate and the location could not be beat. If you are coming from N. America do not balk at the 3 star rating, for if you are going to compare... More

Our family of 5 stayed at Hotel Grifo in July for 1 night. Everything was great, we were all in one room, while a tight fit, we all fit, luggage and all! The staff was so accommodating and helpful. The included breakfast was fine and appreciated! The location was perfect for all our site seeing needs, especially the Colosseum! The... More

This was a great value and amazing location. A VERY short walk to the Colosseum. The rooms were comfortable--but not updated or decorated well. Breakfast was nice. We would stay again for the accessibilty to all major sites. More

If Joe Bradley had taken the Princess to the Hotel Grifo, there would have been a decidedly different outcome. Nonetheless, the Hotel Grifo more than makes up for what it lacks in glamor and panache with outstanding value and a superb location. From the tiny room on the top floor, you have a view, albeit narrow, of the Coliseum and... More
