The hotel was located in a very convenient location for us since our main point of interest was the Vatican, about 15 minutes on foot. The lobby is very small. The reception spoke English well and responded to our requests well. Our room was very nice as the window opened out to the inner courtyard. There were good bathroom amenities... More

Have just returned from a wonderful week in Rome. The Diplomatic Hotel was in an ideal location for us. It is very near the Vatican which we visited regularly. Close to the Vatican you will find the hop on hop off busses so after an exhausting day sight seeing you don't have too far to walk to get back to... More

The Diplomatic is a good hotel with a nice location. The Spanish Steps, Pantheon, Piazza Navona, Piazza del Popolo, the Vatican are all within walking distance with the Colosseum and Fori Imperiali a little further away. The rooms were nice and clean, nothing too luxurious but very good basic level. The breakfast was ok. There's no restaurant in the hotel... More

Great value hotel in a great central location. OK the decor may be a little dated and the rooms are not large but who is spending much time in their hotel when in Rome? Very centrally located within short walks from the Vatican, the Tiber and Colosseum/Forum etc. Also, very handy if you use the SITBusshuttle to/from the airport and... More

The good: My wife and I stayed at this hotel during the conclave and we were satisfied with the rooms. The facility is clean and and while the rooms are somewhat dated it was just what we needed. As mentioned by other reviewers, the beds was firm but comfortable. The bathrooms were nice and the showers had a nice amount... More

I traveled to Italy for the1st time with my husband, brother-in-law and friend in Sept 2012. All of our rooms and bathrooms were very spacious and had comfy beds. The Hotel Diplomatic was in a fabulous area, central to so many sites that walking to them was a fun and easy adventure. The friendly staff was more than helpful and... More

Very clean & tidy hotel in all areas. Staff friendly & helpful. Rooms are very good size with firm beds that are comfortable. There was traffic outside but what do you expect, you are in a city. We all managed to sleep very well. Breakfast was continental which was always well stocked with croissants, toast, fruit, biscuits plus more. Location... More

This hotel has a perfect location, walking distance to everything. Colloseum, spanish steps, fontana di trevi were all at a walking distance. The breakfast was very normal, with a selection of yummy croissants and cereals. The negative things I have to say about this hotel was the AC. It wasnt working well but when we told the reception, they offered... More
