About
Urbana 33
Urbana 33 is a 4-star, apartment-style hotel on Via Urbana in Rome's Monti district. It sits roughly 1.4 km from the Roman Forum, and guests describe the Colosseum, Cavour metro and Termini as reachable on foot. The property operates as rooms within a flat, which means a more personal, low-key feel than a conventional hotel.
Inside, the rooms and bathrooms have been renovated, decor is fresh, and some units include a kitchenette. Across 632 reviews it holds an average rating of 8.4, with the host Maria the most consistent source of praise. Rates start from £84 per night, making it a value-conscious option for the area.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
3 reasons to book- A host who makes guests feel looked after — Maria is mentioned by name throughout the reviews, with guests calling her lovely, helpful, attentive and the best part of the stay.
- A location built for sightseeing — The hotel is in Monti, close to Cavour metro and within walking distance of the Colosseum. The Roman Forum is 1.4 km away, and Termini station is about a 20-minute walk.
- Fresh, clean interiors — Guests describe brand-new decor, new rooms and bathrooms, and daily cleaning, giving the rooms a more modern feel than the building's exterior suggests.
–
Worth weighing
3 to weigh- The exterior and immediate street feel are unpolished — The property is rooms within a flat, and the building's outside is noticeably plainer than the renovated interior. Some guests found the surrounding area a little rough, though it stays convenient for the sights.
- Comfort ratings are well below the overall score — Comfort comes in at 2.5 against an overall 8.4, so expectations around room comfort should be adjusted even if service and location score highly.
- The kitchenette is basic — One guest noted that the kitchenette would have benefited from extra dinnerware; it works for light meals but may not suit serious self-catering.
