About
Hotel Desiderio
Hotel Desiderio is a 26-room, 3-star property in Rome's Trionfale district. It keeps things straightforward: a garden with furniture, a bar and lounge area, a TV room, 24-hour reception, express check-in/out and parking. Listed amenities include air conditioning, heating, mini-bar, flat-screen TVs and free toiletries.
Guests consistently single out the same things: a friendly reception team, clean and spacious rooms, a good Italian breakfast and the short walk to the station. It's a no-nonsense base for travellers who want practical comfort rather than boutique extras.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Facilities are modest — Facilities is the lowest-rated category at 6.6. Expect a simple set-up rather than a full-service hotel.
- Sightseeing means taking the train — The hotel sits in the residential Trionfale district; guests describe taking the train to reach central sights.
- Fixed check-in and check-out windows — Check-in runs 14:00–23:00 and check-out is 07:00–11:00, so very early or very late arrivals need to plan.
- No pets allowed — The hotel's policy is no pets on site.

7.4Verified guest“A really enjoyable stay. The hotel was spotless, the rooms comfortable and roomy, and the mini fridge came in handy. Having parking provided was a genuine bonus for Rome, and being so close to the station made it easy to get around the city.”
7.4Verified guest“The room was large — no complaints. It's within walking distance of Gemelli hospital and a few sights, and the Trionfale neighbourhood is worth exploring.”
7.4Verified guest“The highlight was the receptionist who looked after us each day. He spoke Spanish, made everything easier, pointed us the best route to the centre and helped with whatever we needed — greetings to him from us. The bed was big and comfy, the shower was decent, and the water pressure was strong and warm, which isn't true everywhere.”
7.4Verified guest“Friendly, helpful staff, clean bedding, and a great spot near the station. The breakfast was excellent, and the team clearly cared.”
7.4Verified guest“Conveniently placed by the station, so it's simple to hop on public transport and get anywhere in Rome. There are cafés, a mini market and even a Burger King close by. The staff were friendly and accommodating.”
7.4Verified guest“A lovely stay for a romantic break. We had our morning coffee and breakfast in the beautiful garden — the coffee was excellent and the pastries delicious. The hotel was conveniently near both a train station and a bus stop, making the rest of the city easy to reach.”
