Best Western Plus Hotel Universo

First time staying at a Best Western Plus property, and I was thoroughly impressed! The room was a bit on the darker side, but that actually worked well with Rome’s historic surroundings—no sense of mismatch at all. The split-level layout isn’t huge, but compared to other city hotels, it felt surprisingly spacious and well-designed. The real highlight? A tiny private balcony that opens up to panoramic views of the city—absolutely breathtaking and totally worth the stay. The bed was huge and incredibly comfortable, soft yet supportive. Plenty of power outlets too—USB ports upstairs, one standard socket downstairs. Great for charging multiple devices. What stood out most was that the hotel proactively provided toothbrushes and toiletries—no need to ask at the front desk like in many other Italian hotels. Also appreciated: free bottled water in the room, plus refill stations on every floor. Super convenient and eco-friendly. Location-wise, it’s just a 5-minute walk to Termini Station, making travel around Rome super easy. There are plenty of local supermarkets, authentic restaurants, and cafes nearby—all reasonably priced. Perfect for exploring the city without breaking the bank. At check-out, the staff kindly asked if I’d like to add a service fee to my city tax, but I politely declined (as this practice isn’t common in East Asia or China). They took it gracefully and remained courteous throughout. Overall, this hotel exceeded expectations—great value, excellent service, and a fantastic base for discovering Rome.

The menu changes daily, so I never got bored, and the coffee was absolutely excellent. The room was spotlessly clean, with daily housekeeping that kept everything fresh and tidy. On my first day, I mentioned only a sheet was provided, and they responded instantly by bringing a blanket—such quick and thoughtful service.
