Meltin’ Rome Guest House is a guest house in the Stazione Termini district of Rome, just 400 metres from Vittorio Emanuele Metro Station and 500 metres from the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore.
The property is designed for those seeking a practical, affordable base for exploring the capital: the rooms, simple and functional, come with air conditioning and a flat-screen TV, with the option to choose between rooms with a private bathroom or a shared bathroom, suitable for solo travellers and couples alike. Free WiFi is available throughout the property.
The location, close to Termini, allows several historic attractions to be reached on foot: the Domus Aurea and the Colosseum are around one kilometre away, while the National Roman Museum and Piazza della Repubblica are less than a kilometre away. The area is also well connected to Ciampino and Fiumicino airports via the station’s rail links. An essential option for those who prioritise a central location over higher-category amenities.
Meltin’ Rome Guest House offers three room types designed for short, budget-friendly stays in the heart of Rome. All rooms come with air conditioning and a flat-screen TV, providing a minimum level of comfort even on the city’s hottest days.
The Double Room, the largest at 17 sqm, has a private bathroom and is the best choice for those wanting more privacy. The two variants of the Standard Double Room, more compact and with a shared bathroom, are designed for those seeking a more affordable option without giving up a double bed and essential amenities. The main difference between the rooms therefore lies in the size and bathroom type, while the base standards of air conditioning and TV entertainment remain consistent in every room of the property.
