We stayed at Hotel Oriente for 3 nights from April 30 to May 2, 2011. We stayed during the May day long weekend which also happened to be popes beautification weekend. We paid 100Euros/night and have stayed at better hotels for the same price in Europe (Stayed for 100Euros/night in Switzerland and it was fantastic considering the cost of living... More

The Oriente, in Rome's China town, is fine if you know what to expect. A few floors of a very old apartment block have been made into a hotel : you can't use the lift so be prepared for a bit of a hike to reception, then more to your rooms. We were a school group, they sensibly put the... More

We stayed in the Oriente in September for 3 nights to see the sights of ancient Rome! The place is fantastic, well worth a visit. Our hotel experience was fine - nothing exceptional to report, other than the extremely friendly, multi lingual front of house. He was ever so friendly and gave us lots of good advice.
