About

Established in 1990, Paolina Rooms has come to be one of the most popular accommodations in Rome and a well-known place to stay for young travelers. Since its opening it has been recommended in all the main guide books.

The structure is located in Rione Monti, a lively neighborhood close to the Colosseum and the Roman Forum. Just down the hill you will find the charming cobble-stone streets, Monti proper, complete with fountain for nighttime gatherings. A trendy area, it boasts artisan and vintage shops, a plethora of dining options and cafes, and bustling crowds comprised of residents, artists, tourists, and other colorful folk.

Paolina Rooms is a calm, clean, budget-friendly place to crash in the heart of Rome. It is located on a 19th-century townhouse close to the Santa Maria Maggiore Basilica and to Via Cavour, one of Rome’s main roads. Despite being a small property, with no common room and no kitchen, our guests appreciate the cozy, homey atmosphere.

Several transport options, such as metro, buses, trams, taxi stands, and tour buses, are at your fingertips. Paolina Rooms is easily accessible from Termini central train station, just a few minutes' walk from the structure. Termini hosts bus and train transport to and from Rome's airports.

Thank you and enjoy Rome.

Before arriving there I called the receptionist, told him because of strike &can't be there before9,and he said OK. But when I arrived there about 10 no one was there and when I called him and texted him he said he won't open the door and I can't do check in anymore.I was so tired and desperate,crying for 2h and neighbours came down to help me he show up, and I realised that I have seen him more than 3times there walking around! But didn't want to let me in!in the end he opened the door at 1am.
