Bottom Line

The 28-room Demetra Hotel is a mid-range hotel that best suits travelers seeking a convenient location just around the corner from Rome’s Termini Station. Though the modern decor is generic, the atmosphere is pleasant, and all rooms come with standard amenities like air-conditioning and flat-screen TVs plus free minibars on your first night (though the selection of drinks is fairly limited). Higher category rooms receive additional upgrades such as bathrobes, slippers, and a welcome bottle of prosecco. Facilities are limited, but include a cozy TV lounge, small bar, and varied breakfast buffet with hot options. There’s also free Wi-Fi throughout and a small internet corner that's free for guests to use. For a cheaper option with more comfortable rooms and classic charm, try Hotel del Corso instead.

Demetra Hotel

Scene

Modern mid-range property that's best suited to practical-minded travelers

This small, 28-room hotel is a pleasantly modern place for travelers seeking a prime location and comfortable digs for crashing at night. It's situated just around the corner from Rome’s Termini Station, making it a convenient stop for any travelers passing through (the hotel is justifiably popular with those arriving to the Eternal City by train). Though a TV lounge and small bar offer opportunities for respite, access via long corridors and a flight of steps make it feel somewhat isolated. Some rooms are similarly a bit of a trek from reception, involving several flights of stairs, which may not be suited for handicapped visitors. Contemporary decor throughout the hotel adds bright splashes of color, even if the property's style is a bit generic. A clean, pleasant atmosphere make for a positive experience overall, but the hotel may be better suited to practical travelers in search of a convenient location over lavish pampering. The hotel accommodates mostly couples as well as occasional families from Western Europe, the U.S., and South America.

Location

On a busy street around the corner from the Opera House, a block from Termini Station

Demetra Hotel is sandwiched between a restaurant and another hotel on a busy street, just around the corner from the Opera House and Rome’s Termini Station (which is four minutes away on foot). Direct metro lines to the Spanish Steps (a seven-minute journey), Colosseum (nine minutes), and Trevi Fountain (12 minutes) are super convenient from Termini. Other main attractions are within fairly easy walks, including the Monti district with its boutiques and local restaurants. It's about a 15-minute walk from the hotel. Piazza Venezia or the Trevi Fountain are best reached on foot (20 minutes), while the Vatican is a fairly straightforward 30-minute bus journey. Fiumicino Airport is an easy 40-minute train journey from Termini Station, while Ciampino Airport takes 45 minutes by bus or 35 minutes by taxi.

Rooms

Modern and clean, with standard amenities including minibars, electric kettles, and free Wi-Fi

The 28 rooms at Demetra Hotel have contemporary decor with reds, oranges, and teals set against neutral shades. The spaces are pleasant and clean, if a bit generic. All rooms come with a free minibar the first night -- though the selection of drinks is admittedly limited. Other amenities include flat-screen TVs with satellite channels, electric kettles, soundproofing, air-conditioning, and free Wi-Fi. Superior Rooms add bathrobes and slippers, while Deluxe Rooms are larger and get an additional welcome bottle of prosecco and morning newspaper. Bathrooms vary, but all are modern, with neutral tiling and either a tub or shower, which are upgraded to hot tubs or chromotherapy showers in Superior and Deluxe Rooms. The hotel also offers Triple and Quadruple Rooms to accommodate more people. Soundproofing is adequate despite the busy area (though you'll want to sleep with the windows closed -- traffic is a beast in Rome).

Features

Only the basics, including breakfast buffet with hot options (fee), TV lounge, free Wi-Fi throughout

The hotel also offers free Wi-Fi throughout, and paid parking is available nearby at a public garage.
