Disappointing
It looked like this hotel has only one person to do everything from the front desk, breakfast, and housekeeping. It felt more like a cheap B&B than a hotel.

Anyone say "Walk In Closet"?
The entire room including bath would fit inside the typical walk-in closet of an American home. Staff was extremely friendly and location was close to Roma Termini which was my main objective since I was flying out the following day. Unable to get TV service to function but not critical for my short visit.

Rated too high
Hotel was fine, but I feel that it's rated too highly. Room was of good size and bed was fine, but shower was cruddy looking. It's too far of a walk (with luggage) to Roma Termini train station, so you'll need to take bus or tram to get there. Breakfast was really skimpy. I was quite hungry one morning and asked for a second croissant, but manager refused to give me one. Can't believe that he just refused to. So I'm going to ding them on that. From the hotel it's an easy walk to Porta Maggiore where you can see a remnant of the ancient Roman aqueduct system.

Wish they had better A/C in the summer
Located in a sketchy neighborhood. Easy to walk to metro and St John Lateran. Room was okay. A/C was the worst. Hotel kept it at a fixed temp, which was inadequate for the summer heat. No way I'd stay here again. Better options available for the same money.

Very nice staff
The staff at Hotel Ducale could not have been nicer. They helped us so much. We stayed at the Hotel five years ago and thought the place was a bit more run down now, but the service is excellent. Two things a guest wants in a room: a comfortable bed and a good shower. They need to re model the bathrooms, enlarge showers and get ride of the bidet you trip over. The bed was a bit lumpy. But the staff mad us feel welcome, and breakfast is included, so overall no huge complaints.

Pleasantly Surprised
The staff at this hotel is very friendly and accommodating. The room was very comfortable and clean. The only downside is it's a somewhat far from the major attraction and 10 minute walk to the nearest metro station. However, I would definitely stay here again.

Hotel Ducale in Rome, NEVER AGAIN!
One front desk staff was always in a bad mood. For some reason that he can't explain, we lost hot water in the shower on our last day. They advertised that they have wi-fi... they don't. We have ants in the room!

Hôtel miteux. Les photos de l’hôtel sur le site, doit daté de son ouverture, car aujourd’hui sa ne ressemble plus à ça. Moisissures au mini-bar, les portes sont prêtes à tomber, les murs s’écailles, les sols sont sales, de la poussières sur tout les objets qui peuvent la contenir, lampes de chevet murales tenues grâce au câble électrique, certaines parties des chambres sont rafistolées aux moyens du bord (scotch). Le métro et la gare se trouve juste à côté. Nous avions réservés pour dix nuits, mais nous sommes restés qu’une nuit, puis avons passé les nuits suivantes dans un autre hôtel digne de la ville de Rome. On s’est bien-sûr fait rembourser. En bref : si vous aimez la crasse et tout ce qui va avec, cet hôtel est pour vous, les autres, je vous conseil de cherchez un autre hôtel.

Low quality and standard
Low standard Hotel. It seems to be a general standard in Rome. IT needs renovation. The photos do not match with real condition. When it comes to breakfast I can hardly call it food. They served bare cereals and when we asked for milk they saw at us in surprise. I would definitely try to find something else for next visit to Rome.

Expedia mi chiede cosa aveva di speciale la struttura dove abbiamo alloggiato? Iniziamo a dire k al nostro arrivo quello k ci ha accolto è stato un biglietto con scritte le indicazione di come dovevamo procedere per accedere nella stanza. Entriamo nel ingresso e veniamo travolti da un odore misto tra cantiere e odore nauseante di muffa. La nostra stanza si presentava un po tipo albergo da incubo e la cosa che mi ha dato più fastidio di tutti è stato che i soldi per la prenotazione se li erano già assegnati! Penso che dire quel albergo è al quanto disgustoso è un complimento!!

Fatiscente, non pensavo esistesse un posto cosi tanto squallido al fiorno d'oggi. L'albergo è gestito da koreani, piccolo, sporco, con un odore di muffa orribilante. La stanza piccolissima lenzuola e copriletto lerci e con macchie evidenti di sporco. Bagno spazioso ma con ragnatele ovunque, specchiera arrugginita water non ne parliamo. Da evitare

De hotelkamer en ontbijt viel erg tegen.
De prijs-kwaliteitsverhouding kwam redelijk overeen, al was het nog teveel geld voor wat wij tegenkwamen. Omdat de reviews goed waren hadden wij dit niet verwacht. Er zat veel schimmel in de douche, er kwam wel genoeg water uit de douchekop, je ligt op de veren van het bed, er ligt 1 handdoek, 1 zakje douchegel, het badmatje wordt niet verschoond de 2e dag, we twijfelen zelfs of de handdoek wel ververst wordt, de kamer is erg slecht onderhouden, wij zijn slank, maar anders pas je amper de douchecabine in. Het is 8 min. lopen naar het metrostation (geen probleem, maar wel goed om te weten). Bij het ontbijt zit je in een vervallen buitenruimte, het volgende is aanwezig: uitgedroogd wit brood om te roosteren, jam, bijna over de datum boter, nutella, croissant, zoetig stukje taart, warm water-thee, ranja en wat crusli. Gelukkig waren er weinig medehotelgasten, anders is het erg gehorig. Buiten hoor je alleen de tram goed en de weg, verder valt het mee.

Muy pequeño
La habitación era más pequeña de lo que yo imaginaba. La cama era minúscula y no había espacio en el cuarto para nada. El personal era muy amable, pero no disfruté mi estancia en ese hotel por lo incómodo de la habitación.

Environs très bruyants, hôtel mal entretenu
Très mauvais quartier: sale, mal fréquenté. De plus, il y a une boite de nuit juste en face de l'hôtel: IMPOSSIBLE DE DORMIR. La chambre est propre, mais tout est en mauvais état: les murs sont sales, la chasse d'eau fuit, la robinetterie est mal fixée, les plinthes se décrochent. Nous avons demandé à changer de chambre, car la première était toute petite et le lit inconfortable (on s'est levé avec chacun un mal de dos).

Freddo!
L'hotel è carino, ben tenuto e in un'ottima zona. Rilevo solo il problema del freddo nella camera (che il gentilissimo personale ha tentato inutilmente di risolvere) e, ancor più, nel bagno, che era a dir poco gelido. Gela anche nella sala/veranda colazione, la quale potrebbe essere anche un po' meno spartana. Comunque il rapporto qualità-prezzo è ottimo.

Hotel tæt på Metro
Udmærket lille hotel, men undgå at få værelse nr. 101, som faktisk ligger i kælderen, hvor også redeptionen ligger. Der er meget lydt og en masse støj når gæster kommer sent hjem. Personalet i receptionen er yderst venlige og taler flydende engelsk. Lille hyggelig gårdhave hvor der spises morgenmad, når vejret er til det. Ligger blot 500m fra Metro station og tæt på Termini - Roms hovedbanegaard. Hvis man kan undgå værelse 101 vil jeg gerne anbefale hotellet.

My second stay in Hotel Ducale
This was my second stay in Ducale. I am more than happy about this hotel, friendly staff and an Italian+ breakfast in the courtyard every morning. Close to the trams and lots of busses that take you to Termini station or Colloseum.
