About

Hotel Gabriella

Hotel Gabriella is a 3-star property on Via Palestro 88 in Rome, Lazio. It sits close to Termini station, with guests describing the walk as roughly three to four blocks or about 5–10 minutes. That makes it a straightforward choice for travellers arriving by train or planning to use the airport bus. A paid airport shuttle from Ciampino, 20 km away, is available, and the hotel can arrange car hire.

Inside, the hotel keeps things functional: soundproofed rooms with air conditioning, tea and coffee facilities, flat-screen TVs and daily housekeeping. Guest reviews regularly praise the welcoming staff and clean bathrooms. The property is one of several mini hotels sharing a building on Via Palestro, an area one guest described as the cheaper end of town, with good-value dining nearby. It suits straightforward, budget-conscious stays rather than a resort-style escape.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Steps from Termini station — The hotel sits roughly three to four blocks from Rome's main station, and guests consistently describe reaching it in about 5–10 minutes on foot. That puts the airport bus and city transport within easy reach.
  • Friendly, helpful staff — Multiple guests single out a warm welcome, prompt check-in and genuinely hospitable service as a reason the stay was pleasant.
  • Clean, well-equipped rooms — Guests describe spotless rooms and bathrooms, daily housekeeping and fresh towels. Rooms include air conditioning, soundproofing and tea and coffee facilities, with some adding a city view or a jacuzzi bath.
  • Fair price for the centre — Rooms start from £58 per night, and at least one guest found this the cheapest 3-star option they located. The property offers a paid airport shuttle and car hire.

Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Dining is a weak point — The hotel's dining score is the lowest of its rating categories, and no full restaurant appears among the listed amenities, so guests should plan most meals elsewhere.
  • Rooms and cleanliness can be inconsistent — The category score sits at 6/10, and negative reviews include one guest who called the hotel very bad and another who found the double bed was actually two singles pushed together.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 22:00, so late arrivals need to plan ahead. Check-out is by 10:00.
  • Area and building feel like the cheap end of town — Guest reviews describe the immediate surroundings as lively, interesting and full of budget dining, but not particularly polished. The hotel also shares a building with several other mini hotels.
  • No pets and non-smoking only — Travellers with pets or those who smoke on-site will need to look elsewhere, as the hotel is strictly no-pets and smoke-free.

“Good value and a great stay. From the superior room we had a city view, with comfortable beds, a desk, flat-screen TV and seating area. Being a minute from the train station was a bonus.”

7.4Verified guest

“Excellent location, only a 5–10 minute walk to the train station. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The in-room jacuzzi bath was a treat, and the room was cleaned daily with fresh towels.”

7.4Verified guest

“The cheapest 3-star I found on Booked.net. It's one of four or five mini hotels sharing a building. Rooms were fairly clean and staff were exceptionally hospitable. Only four short blocks from the train station, so access to the airport bus is quick, and there's a bus station in front of the station giving easy city access.”

7.4Verified guest

“Cleanliness throughout was genuinely commendable.”

7.4Verified guest

“The room was good, with a TV, hair dryer and fridge, and the design was lovely. One downside: the supposed double bed was actually two single beds pushed together.”

The bottom line

For travellers who want an affordable, central place to sleep and are out most of the day, Hotel Gabriella is a solid choice. The staff and location earn consistent praise, and the rooms cover the essentials with air conditioning and soundproofing. But the low dining score, mixed room reviews and 14:00–22:00 check-in window mean it isn't the right fit for every traveller.

7.4Choose it for the price and position; think twice if you need polished dining or flexible evening check-in.
