Prime Hotels Roma Cassia - Rome, Italy 

The Prime Hotel is an excellent hotel, although its distance from the city center may pose as a slight hurdle for some. Primarily, the hotel itself is clean, has friendly staff, and has all the amenities of a 4 star hotel. Its location is rather secluded from the main road, but having a local convenience store is handy. It is situated near a bus stop (3min walk) from which the city center can be reached directly by a few buses, or alternatively, you could take a bus to the nearby train station (La Guistinia). Some information which may be useful to those who are going to book this hotel regarding transport to the hotel: Taking a cab to the hotel is very expensive, so avoid it if possible. From the main train station of Rome (Termini), take the bus 217 to Paizello bus stop, and from there take the 223 bus to Cassia Via Barbarano. OR Take the metro from Termini to Valle Aurellia and then another train to La Guistinia station, from this the bus 201 will take you to the bus stop (cassia Via barbarano) where the hotel is nearby. From Termini station, all the major attractions of Rome are nearby by metro. This information was found by trial and error when we went to Rome, but part of the adventure is getting lost and finding your own way back! Overall, it was a brilliant hotel, comfortable and affordable and an exciting city break. No major complaints, but it did rain slightly, pugs got wet.
