Domus Pretoria: Confortable and secure Hotel

by malka12

We stayed for a week. Very clean and spacious room. Near the Roma Termini, quite near to the turistic places in Rome. A lot of transportation- you can go everywhere from there.

Free wifi in the room.

Hotel Bernini Bristol: Wonderful Hotel in Rome

by chrisedw

Very comfortable and made accomodations for my family of 5 in two nice adjoining rooms. We had 12 family members in 5 rooms for 3 nights.

Incredible sunset views from the bar/restaurant (indoors and outdoors) on the top floor.

Stafler Romantik Hotel: A perfect getaway in northern Italy (Mules)

by Trekki

Stafler Romantic Hotel in Mules, near Vipiteno/Sterzing in northern Italy is very famous since ages. In May 2010 I finally managed to stay here and did not regret it, moreover it is a reason to come back for a hiking holiday in this wonderful part of northern Italia.
The hotel is located in the village of Mauls (Mules) at the SS12 (road), the old Brennero road through the valley. The rooms though are not located facing the road but to the opposite side, facing the mountains. But then there isn’t that much traffic as one would think. The majority of drivers will take the autostrada E45/A22 (Brennero).
The hotel has a long history, was an old Post-Gasthof since 1270 (a house where stage coaches would stop, stay and change horses). Not only the two buildings with rooms belong to the hotel but also stables, a little museum about the hotel history, several places to eat and an entailed estate (farm). There are a lot of offers for any kind of wellness treatments, such as sauna, massages, swimming pool and beauty treatments.
My room faced the mountains and had a balcony, which is typical for many hotels in the alpine regions. I loved the view and especially the very much quiet atmosphere. The room had everything I needed (and more), equipped with TV, phone, huge cabinet for storage, refrigerator and mini-bar. The bathroom has also all one needs, including hair dryer.

Breakfast is included, and what a breakfast!! It reminded me a bit of the one we stayed at in Karlsruhe during the Euromeet. Their selection is incredible. It is buffet style with a big variety of tea (tea bags and loose tea), six different juices, cold cuts, cheese, bread, croissants and rolls, yoghurt, fruit salads and fruits, cereals (loose), marmalade, Nutella, and much more. You can have “normal” coffee or order special one, including caffè (= which is called espresso anywhere outside of Italia).
Parking is available behind the house, safe, but then the region and Mauls especially are safe anyhow.

Yes, I enjoyed my stay here (simply can’t write better accommodation tips, lol).

Overall, I paid 89 Euro for my room (May 2010).

(Their website is only in German and Italian at the moment).

Location of Romantic Hotel Stafler on Google Maps.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Region: Trentino-Alto Adige
Nearest airport: Innsbruck (code INN) in Austria is most probably the best. It is definitely the nearest. Otherwise Verona (VRN) or Trento (LIDT) in Italy.

Casa Sembinini @ Riva del Garda: An Italian Guesthouse with a German feeling

by Ingeborga

Located in a peaceful village in the Italian Alpes, called Riva del Garda. You can literally walk through this place within an hour. Casa Sembini is owned by the Sembinini family, who also own a kick-ass bike shop downstairs. The family members have won motorcross championships for many decades. The building has multiple apartments, so you need to specify how many bedrooms you want.

No air conditioner, but the owners will bring you fans if requested. Ask for an apartment on the lower floors. The upper floors couldn't get wifi. Fully equipped kitchen, right next to a large supermarket.

Hotel Armando Verona: Small scale hotel in Verona

by Ingeborga

We initially expected a very basic Best Western hotel. We were pleasantly surprised to discover a very personable staff, a lovely room with a view over the Roman Arena. One night there was a magnificent performance of Aida staged there. We couldn't get the tickets but were able to hear every note.

Fully airconditioned, free wifi

Hotel Al Portico: A nice hotel away from the crowds

by Ingeborga

This lovely guesthouse is located in a quiet corner of Cannaregio district, away from the crowds, shouting and yelling. The guesthouse is close to the Venetian Jewish ghetto, so if you have a craving for some kosher food - this is definitely a place to stay. The rooms are very modest: a bed, a chair, a closet and a bathroom. Fully air conditioned. The staff is friendly and is very willing to point out non-touristy eating spots and places to be.

Korean House: Conveniently located but ...

by penny_g

I stayed there during my trip to Rome. Firstly, I was very happy that it has such a good location. It is next to Termini and in a walk-distance to the most important sightseeings of Rome, so I didn't have to buy tickets for the public transport.

Then I was somewhat surprised that it is inside a residential building the Korean House is actually one floor of an old residential building using an outdated lift. Anyway.

I arrived late at 21:00 and saw that there is no one at the reception. I waited for more than an hour and finally two Hindus - a father and a son came, confirmed that I had a reservation there but told me that I have to wait for another hour, so they prepare my room.

The waiting was worth, they gave me a room for myself and meanwhile I made a circle around the Termini.

In the morning, the breakfast was insufficient and I had to ask if they have bread. There was only jam and chocolate but how come you can have them without bread?!

This was my adventure at the Korean House with the Hindus service :-)))))
