Question

Is it a bad idea to stay in a hotel near Termini Station?

Answer 1

if you could at all try and stay away from all touriest sites. They OVER charge! I live around and visit that area and they cost too much to stay there. There are  cities close by..Catiana(english firendly), Messina(where I live), and others that would be cheaper if you stayed there! Also the euro is doing so much better then the dollar so everything is going to cost alot more! email me if you have any questions!

Answer 2

Hi There  When are you going to Rome? No , The area  around Termini station  is perfectly fine.Keep your money in a money belt out of sight  or in your  front pocket and walk with purpose and you will have no problems. Always beware of your surroundings. You  must be careful in any place in the world.

If you plan to use the station, don't hesitate to stay nearby

Here are a couple of  hotels that I can recommend:

St. Moritz Hotel

51 Via Nazionale

Rome 00184 Italy

The Hotel St.Moritz is a 3-star accommodation located in the centre of Rome in a beautiful building dating back to the 19th century

Hotel Italia

Via Venezia, 18

Roma, 00184

Tel.[phone]

It is situated in the heart of historic Rome. Near the Spanish Steps, Fountain of Trevi, Termini station and the Colosseum. It located 3 blocks from Termini station.  Breakfast included

Price Range 50 Euros to 200 Euros

I personally have stayed at the Hotel St. Moritz and Hotel Italia. I haven't stayed at the Hotel St. Moritz in many years. I like the location of the Hotel Italia and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I have stayed there several times. The hotel is not fancy, but I really enjoyed staying there.

***Some words of advice: Read reviews on the hotels, B&B's etc, where you are thinking of staying.

Additional  information

***The 110 Bus--This is a good way to get an overview of the city, but don't expect a full blown tour...the attractions are highlighted using a prerecorded message in several different languages (they provide headphones). I would only recommend this bus if you're nervous about getting around the city on your own. I would suggest using this tour on the first day you arrive so you can get an overview of the city and try to get your bearings. You can buy the tickets at Termini station. The cost is about 13 euros for a hop on/hop off tour or 8 euors for a non stop tour.

***It is well worth it. I rode the 110 Bus to get around the city when the distances to walk were too far. It is cheaper than a cab/taxi ride. You can get on and off all day.

Timetable

April-September: 9:00-20:00

October-March: 10:00-18:00

Answer 3

No, if your intention is to get away in a few minutes. Lol.

Instead, why not choosing a quiet and little bread&breakfast on some hill around Rome? Ciao.
