About

The Cross Hotel

The Cross Hotel occupies a neat building on Via Di Santa Croce In Gerusalemme, a quiet street in Rome's historic centre. With the Manzoni metro station just two minutes away, guests can reach the Colosseum in a 20-minute walk or hop on the airport express train from Termini, about 15 minutes on foot. The hotel balances practicality with comfort: secure parking is available, and the property includes a garden, sun terrace, and a snack bar. Rated 8.3 out of 10 from over 3,300 reviews, it earns high marks for staff, rooms, and value.

Guest rooms are modern and spacious, equipped with soundproofing, minibars, and flat-screen TVs. Some categories add private balconies or terraces, and a Deluxe Triple Room with Terrace is available. The hotel's restaurant serves freshly cooked dishes, and the breakfast is consistently praised for its selection. While the atmosphere is straightforward, it's kept lively by a coffee shop and bar/lounge area. The Cross Hotel delivers a reliable three-star experience for those prioritising a central location and genuine service.
