Rome's only kosher hotel sits across the Tiber from the main synagogue. Although its room furnishings are spartan, the staff is very friendly and there's a charming vine-covered terrace. There are two kitchens for use by guests keeping kosher, and prepared kosher meals can be arranged. Breakfast is offered in the snack bar next door. Pros: good budget choice; kosher-friendly; short walk to Jewish Ghetto. Cons: pay upon check-in; no-frills accommodations; reception is closed after 8 PM.

we stayed at Hotel Carmel 3 weeks ago.
The staff was very friendly, room small but clean and confortable.
Perfectly located.
The terrace available for all guests is fantastic I think especially in spring and summer.
We recommend Hotel Carmel!!!!!!

no refund policy - beware
rooms are tiny, dirty and uninviting...added plus of no hot water if you are lucky!!
