I had a pleasant stay at Shg Hotel Portamaggiore, though some aspects could use improvement. The location is quite convenient for exploring Rome, making it easy to reach major attractions by tram. However, my room faced the street and was a bit noisy. Additionally, the breakfast service could improve during busy hours. Overall, it's a good option for budget-conscious travelers looking for a comfortable experience.

My room was average-sized and reasonably clean, but there was a lot of street noise when the window was open. the mattress was uncomfortable initially, but it was replaced quickly after I complained. I appreciated the efforts to fix the bedside light.

The hotel offers several useful facilities like room service and medical services, which added to my stay. however, the rooftop bar could use a better atmosphere, especially when it rains.

I had a mixed experience at Shg Hotel Portamaggiore. On one hand, the room I stayed in was clean and spacious, perfect for my family. However, noise from the other rooms and the terrace party disrupted my sleep, which was quite disappointing. The hotel is in a great location, making it easy to explore Rome, but I wish the breakfast had more variety and that staff were more attentive during check-out.

My stay at Shg Hotel Portamaggiore had its ups and downs. The breakfast spread was pretty solid with a range of delicious goodies, but the overall vibe of the room left something to be desired. The location is decent for accessing transport but has a few sketchy spots nearby that made me feel a bit uneasy at night.

Rooms

6.0

My room was clean, but the furniture was pretty old and gave off a worn vibe. I was first put in a non-refurbished room that had annoying noise from the street, but I got moved to a better one that was much more comfortable.

Breakfast had a good variety like fresh fruits and pastries, although I skipped the restaurant for dinner since it seemed pricey compared to nearby options.

Basic amenities included in the stay, but there were a few quirks like the strange towels that didn’t feel very hotel-like. Wi-Fi wasn’t great on the fourth floor, though.

I had an overall decent stay at Shg Hotel Portamaggiore with some highlights and low points. The location was superb, making it easy to explore the city with nearby transport options. However, the room I first had faced a noisy street, impacting my comfort before a staff member kindly moved me to a quieter room. Though not luxurious, the hotel offers great value for budget travelers like me.

My stay at SHG Hotel Portamaggiore had its ups and downs. While I appreciated the comfortable bedding and the location near public transport, the service left something to be desired, with some hiccups during check-in. Overall, I think I'd recommend looking a bit further for a more polished experience.

The reception staff could've been friendlier. I had an issue with my room key at check-in, which added unnecessary stress to my arrival. They didn't really check on my stay during checkout either.

I liked the location; it’s near a tram station and made it pretty easy to explore the city. However, it’s a bit of a trek from the main train station, so keep that in mind.
