Fun and Funky Hotel with a Great Location
This hotel was very clean and I loved the funky atmosphere. My one complaint would be the service in the restaurant, especially the coffee machine and espresso bar. It was never clear if you should approach the barista, and when you did he was very curt and always seemed mad. Supposedly, you were to sit at a table and wait for the waitress to order coffee for you, but it took forever to do that. The espresso machine was always breaking down, and had horrible tasting milk. The esresso bar had better coffee and milk, but took forever. The breakfast choices were AMAZING, but often the hot fod, like eggs, bacon, sausage, etc... was cold. This hotel is located right near a Metro stop, and not too far from the Vatican, making it a great location.

We had a great 12th anniversary weekend in Rome and staying the Mama Shelter Roma hotel, room was massive and spotlessly clean. Staff were lovely and friendly, hotel food was fab with delicious cocktails to top it off!

The stay here was pleasant. The room was clean. Staff was great. Food at their restaurant was good. The breakfast included was lovely. We had a balcony in our room and it was cool. The room was a bit small but the amenities made up for it. The restroom was nice and loved the light up mirror. I wish they had a USA plugin their outlets for our tools with adequate voltage but they didn’t. Other than that the adapters worked just fine. Overall 5/5 experience. Would stay here again.

Cute hotel, wonderful staff, corky and fun hotel. Walking to the tourist areas is not ideal but order a cab early and it is just fine.

The pool was great, as long as you remember to book a slot in advance. And the breakfast buffet bacon was way too salty. Otherwise a relaxing stay, a lively rooftop bar, and a short convenient walk to the Vatican Museums

Our stay was amazing! Clean rooms and bathroom. Pool area is amazing. Close to metro. The only thing is that stuff at the roof top bar is slow.

This is an amazing hotel, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The only thing that let it down was the surrounding area and it was slightly further out. Would definitely stay again!

8/10 Very good

The staff was super friendly and made sure they were able to accommodate guests. The were busy at the front desk when we checked-in and when we checked-out. They made accommodations to ensure that our room was thoroughly cleaned because of my respiratory conditions. During our five day stay I did not have a flare up being in the room at all. I really appreciated that, thank you Mama Shelter Roma! Be advised that if you want to have dinner on the rooftop of the hotel, you have to make reservations or you won’t be able to enjoy the atmosphere. I wish this would’ve been told to us at our check-in. But this is why the reviews are available, so you have an idea of what to anticipate. Otherwise this was a great stay during our five day visit to Rome. Definitely recommend Mama Shelter Roma! Grazie mille Mama Shelter Roma!!

The property was lovely And for the most part staff was friendly and likable, but we chose it for the amenities which included the spa and pool. During our four day stay, we were only able to secure one single one hour slot for swimming at the pool. And there were so many children there In the tiny space that it was thoroughly unenjoyable.

Verified Expedia guest review

2/10 Poor

The amenities in which I chose to book the hotel. Were greatly exaggerated Was there pull a spa and gym? Yes, were we allowed to use it? No, because apparently you have to specifically book time slot pre arranged and then be escort by staff to even be allowed to not only use it, but even get to it, I couldn't even tell you what the pool looked like.

It was a great stay overall! I love how everyone at the hotel was so incredibly friendly and helpful! Only downside was the metro was not working near by so we had to Uber everywhere since the hotel is bit far from things but other than that I would definitely come back when in Rome
