About
Hotel Celio
Hotel Celio is a 3-star hotel on Via Dei Santi Quattro 35/C in Rome, a five-minute walk from the Basilica of San Clemente. The location is the main draw: guests describe the Colosseum as minutes away, while the street itself tends to be quieter than the main tourist roads.
The hotel has a traditional, well-kept interior, a roof terrace that guests enjoy, and a range of facilities including a spa and wellness centre, a fitness room, a bar/lounge and a 24-hour reception. Rooms go from singles up to a suite with a terrace, and breakfast is regularly singled out in guest reviews.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
3 reasons to book- Location close to the Colosseum and San Clemente — Hotel Celio sits on Via Dei Santi Quattro 35/C, about a five-minute walk from the Basilica of San Clemente. Reviews repeatedly describe the Colosseum as minutes away, while the quieter street keeps the central position from feeling too touristy.
- Breakfast is a genuine strength — Guests mention free breakfast with fresh coffee, juice, croissants and cheese, and several call it one of the best parts of the stay.
- Friendly, helpful staff — The hotel is described in reviews as family-run, with guests commenting on caring, knowledgeable staff and a level of service that makes the stay feel personal.
–
Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Rooms can feel compact — A detailed guest review describes the rooms as small but perfectly formed, which makes them well suited to short city breaks. If you need more space, the Junior Suite or Suite Terrace are the options to consider.
- Views are mostly from the roof terrace — Although the hotel's description mentions city views, a guest review notes there are no views to speak of from the rooms themselves. The rooftop terrace is the place to go for a view.
- One reported housekeeping miss — A recent guest reported bedding that wasn't clean in a quadruple room, which contrasts with the generally spotless rooms described elsewhere. It's worth checking recent reviews for the room type you book.

8.5Verified guest“I stayed two nights in a quadruple room and the bedding wasn't clean, though there was a jetted tub and a partial view. The location was central and close to everything.”
8.5Verified guest“I booked a large room with a single bed. Breakfast was included and had good choices, with cheese and freshly made coffee among them. The location was excellent, close to restaurants and bars, and there was a convenience shop right next door, along with other convenience stores.”
8.5Verified guest“The roof terrace was fine, the decor was beautiful, and the surrounding neighbourhood had an engaging local atmosphere.”
8.5Verified guest“The location was fantastic, and air conditioning was a real bonus. We had only eight hours in Rome before an early flight, and being steps from the Colosseum helped us make the most of it; the airport was about half an hour away. Comfortable, clean and excellent value for the location, with decent restaurants and gelato on the same street. We would definitely stay again on a return trip when we have a full week in Rome.”
8.5Verified guest“We loved being close to the Colosseum, and the breakfast each morning was really excellent.”
8.5Verified guest“The room was clean and the beds comfortable, and the friendly staff genuinely cared for us. Breakfast was excellent, especially the cappuccino. The decor blended modern and traditional touches nicely, and the view from the rooftop was a treat.”
