Golden Tulip Rome Airport

Very nice on the outside, horrible inside. Avoid if possible. Rome «tourist» tax. And free shuttle is 6 euros per person.
— the a/​c is disconnected oct 1-​april 1. The controls in your room do NOTHING. I called front desk 4 separate occasions to ask them to «turn down the air» in my room. Each time they said they would. An hour passes and my room is still very hot. I called again, and then they explain «a/​c is disconnected for winter months»
King size bed– is too mattresses pushed together. They do not have king mattresses.
One restaurant — IT restorantee– 3* at most
«Free Wifi» — its dial up bandwidth. Slowest connection ever. Wouldve paid for «wifi» if avail. This is a 3 star hotel at most. I had a 2 star stay

This place is more of a wanna be 4 star hotel. Staff was very unfriendly, and very unaccommodating. Breakfast is the lowest quality food. They charge you for the airport shuttle. They charge an additional city tax which was not on my original invoice when I booked online. It felt that I had to provide my room number for every little thing. The outside of the building is kind of dingy. The pool area is pretty nice though. It’s kind of a pig with some lipstick on it.

Das Hotel ist einer der schönsten, in denen ich bisher eingecheckt habe. Die Zimmer (wir hatten eine Superior Suite) sind sehr gepflegt und modern, das Bad ist super und bietet alles. Man hat sogar einen Balkon!!!
Das Personal ist extrem freundlich und kommt jedem Wunsch nach. Beim Frühstück hat man die Qual der Wahl, wobei alles sehr gut schmeckt — von gefüllten Croissants bis hin zum Kuchen und frischem Obst. Kaffee gibt es jeder Art an zwei professionellen Maschinen.
Draußen kann man abends gemütlich an den Loungesets sitzen und an einem Cocktail der Bar «Ruffino» schlürfen. Nachmittags und Abends bietet das Restaurant sehr feine und wohlschmeckende Spezialitäten an, preislich in der Mittelklasse.
Das Hotel an sich befindet sich in einer ruhigen Gegend, wobei Busse in die Stadt Ostia und somit zum Zug bringen, der direkt nach Rom fährt. Außerdem ist man keine 15 Min vom Flughafen Fiumicino entfernt (per Bus).

This is my third stay here because it’s perfect if you want to stay close to the airport or if you have a morning flight. Each stay has been pleasant. I got a kingsize room this time and my balcony opens up to the pool. I like their pizzas here and they have a nice breakfast too that starts at 6am. They have a shuttle pretty much on the hour, just know when you arrive, go out of baggage claim and turn right on the sidewalk. Walk to the end, where the ‘bus station’ is and look for spot 26 and you will be brought to the hotel. This hotel is my go-​to place if I want to stay close to the airport. The people are nice, the rooms are clean and the food is good.

I got bumped off of a full flight back to the states! I could’ve camped out in the departure area. But this hotel was pretty close to Rome’s Fiumicino airport. It is decent & clean, has a large pool and shuttle service to and from the airport. It’s not cheap but it is convenient if u want a bed & a bathroom and shower. It’s a fairly good sized bathroom too (actually bigger than the Intercontinental’s @ Spanish Steps). The bed is not bad, it was a comfortable sleep — hey, you can lay down flat and that’s much better than those hard airport terminal chairs…
