The hotel was quaint with interesting nostalgic decor. There are outdoor seating areas to enjoy in front and back. My room had a nice view over a man-made lagoon and private beach area, but unfortunately I tried to go into that beach area and it is for members only. So the public beach is about 200 meters south with some things to do there. I had a large balcony which was wonderful. The bed was comfortable and the price was excellent. The breakfast buffet was decent, and typical of an Italian breakfast selection. The hotel is only about a 15 minute walk from the main bus station in town. To the north, about a 10 minute walk is the main downtown with many restaurants and lively activity. (Side note: nothing to do with the hotel..... But, I had a tough time coming from Fuimicino airport on the bus and figuring out how to get tickets and located the correct bus (Coltra #2) there which only comes every hour or so (the Coltra (company) bus driver would not accept payment on the bus even though sometimes they will for an increased price of 7 Euros, so you have to go buy the ticket (only 1.3 Euros) at the coffee shop down the sidewalk outside near door 5, I think, and the bus stop going to Ostia is outside of door 6) They said you can pay on the Coltra app, but also the app can be difficult but will work if you understand it. Taxis are difficult to get from FCO to Ostia for some reason, as they don't get a return fare easily, so they will charge you a lot to go to Ostia. I tried an Uber but then couldn't find the Uber stand and had to cancel that. Also way more for an Uber than you'd expect. (FCO is a nightmare, and I'm a seasoned traveler). So plan accordingly. ) But I had no problem at the hotel for the return trip to FCO the nice front desk clerk ordered me a taxi for the morning and the taxi was just about 5-8 minutes late so, if you're doing that, order your taxi for a bit earlier to be on the safe side.

They have a problem with their elevator. It works fine, but it is an older version that has little doors that open outward and they need to be manually shut every time one exits. And so uninformed or inconsiderate guests keep leaving the doors ajar, and so unless all the doors are completely shut it will not operate for safety reasons. So, the front desk clerk keeps having to run up and down the stairs all day to fix the elevator. I feel bad for that worker. But that is how those older elevators work. You must be patient. But they were always friendly and helpful at this hotel.

Great location.

City tax paid twice,in booking the price includes every taxes.But when checking out they asked me to pays city tax again.

Very professional waiter in the evening.

The young receptionist at the check-out day could be more friendly. As I mentioned that the toilet board is unsteady and shaky, he asked me: if I’m sure it wasn’t me… 😳 no professional behavior at all

The very nice young lady at the check-in time was very helpful. She was the most friendly receptionist in entire hotel.

More shower gel would be appreciated.

They serve the best breakfast (comparing all 3 stars hotels) in Lido di Ostia.

Located on the sea front of Ostia lido and a short walk to the centre of the lido with plenty of good restaurants around the central square. Our room was at the front and had a large terrace overlooking the seafront, although you don’t see the beach as there are the usual beach clubs blocking access to the beach. The terrace was large enough for a family to sit out on and enjoy the view of the sea. The family room was large and airy with a proper third single bed which is always appreciated by the third adult. Small refrigerator and tea and coffee provided. Excellent breakfast selection of both sweet and savoury is provided in the front breakfast room and makes you want to spend a leisurely breakfast there. Lovely retro reception and bar area. Thoroughly enjoyed staying here.

I liked the location, close to restaurants, convenient train connection. Stylish 50s-60s. Such a hotel with a retro atmosphere is a rarity among modern luxury hotels. The young man working at the bar was very friendly, as was the young man who received us.

Some tables in the dining room wobbled so that the coffee spilled over the edge of the cup. We changed the table, but the dirty table was not cleaned. It would be nice if the breakfast hostess wore something more stylish instead of sweatpants and clean the dishes more quietly and smile more. And it is definitely worth updating this stylish hotel and, for example, repainting the rusty radiators.

Breakfast good (buffet), friendly stuff, well located, clean rooms/sanitary, hotel with charm!

2nd coffee (breakfast) should be included

Staff was very kind and nice. Whole atmosphere of the hotel was great and breakfast quite tasty. Had a room with view and even though there's is main road between the hotel and beach there were no noice from the road.

The double bed is just two single beds joint together, not best thing if you want to cuddle with your partner during night. There is a bit of walk to get to beach, even though it's right across the street since you need to get to entry point.

The property exceded our expectations. As there are only a few photos shown, we were not sure what to expect. The hotel itself is quite old (furniture wise), but the room is very nice and big. We also had a big balcony facing the sea, which was deffinitely a plus. We appreciated the 5 minutes walk till the nearest free access beach, the nice personell, the good breakfast (held in a beautiful sea-view closed terrace). I really recommend this hotel if your budget is not that high. Indeed it is nothing new, but will work well if not really picky. Also, the staff is super nice and helpfull.

The only inconvenient for us was the elevator. It is really small and not always coming. We were traveling with a stroller, so it was a bit inconvenient from this point of view.
