Great 2 day stay
It's not a hostel, more like a family run boutique hotel. It was exactly what we needed for 2 days in Rome. Great recommendations from our host. Comfortable, clean and convenient to Roma Termini. Would stay here again.

The room was close enough to walk everywhere two minutes from a square that offered streets in all directions with all the amenities you could ask for. The hosts were wonderful people and we enjoyed meeting them. We were running late on check in day but they were very patient and thorough with us and shared everything we needed to know. The room was great and cleaned every day. Thank you for a great experience. Jeff-Toronto

Nice place but watch out for stairs.
Great location near the Termini train station and a nice place to stay. However, there are 4 flights of stairs so you have to be in shape as it is a climb.

Very friendly and helpful host. Alessandro welcomed us and helped us bring the luggages up to the 3rd floor as there is no lift in the building. The room is very clean and cozy. Alessandro showed us their own tourist map of Rome, very helpful and useful.

Amazing stay! Our host Alessandro was incredibly friendly, accommodating, and responsive, and helped carry our luggage upstairs. The location is superb with easy access to all the major attractions. We were able to explore the historic sites and charming streets with ease. They provided us with a detailed map that included recommendations for nearby restaurants and cafes. Would definitely stay here again!

Recommended.
Stayed here for 4 nights in a twin room. The room was comfortable. Very clean. Beds made daily and towels changed. Good shower. Location excellent. The host was very friendly and helpful. Would not suit anyone with mobility problems as there are 3 flights of stairs. I would stay here again and I would recommend this property.

The BlueHostel is a nice place. It was very easy to get to the main train station and the metro. It was only a 20-25 minute walk to the Trevi Fountain and the Colosseum. The room was clean and quiet. The staff is very helpful and kind. I definitely recommend the BlueHostel.

What a gem. Ercole and Alessandro are wonderful hosts who clearly have a passion for what they do. They provided a map of Rome with locations of all the main attractions plus locations and descriptions of their dining recommendations. A true locals guide to Rome. I went to as many of their spots as I could get to and wow, such treasures. The Blue Hostel is perfectly located close to everything including metro, but just outside of the crowded fray. This was my first trip to Rome, but surely not my last. I know where I’m going to stay for all future visits! Ps the room was charming and gorgeous and clean, with ac and quite a comfortable bed.
