About
Hotel Residenza Gra 21
Hotel Residenza Gra 21 sits on Via Anagnina, a short drive from Rome's GRA ring road, and looks out over a small lake. It is an aparthotel rather than a traditional hotel — rooms come with kitchenettes, making it a natural fit for longer stays or families who want the option to cook. The property is about 10 minutes by car from Parco degli Acquedotti and the Statua di Papa Giovanni Paolo II.
Check-in runs from 15:00 to 22:30, check-out is at 10:00, and the 24-hour front desk is not mentioned in the input — but the reviews consistently single out the reception team for offering lifts to the metro station and helping with everything from dinner orders to translation. Guests rate the staff at 9.1, the highest of any category.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
5 reasons to book- Staff who genuinely go out of their way — Guests consistently mention the reception team driving them to the metro station, helping with transfers after hours, and even ordering food on their behalf. The staff rating of 9.1 is the highest across all categories.
- Free private parking, a real rarity in Rome — On-site parking is complimentary and often directly outside the room. For a city where central parking can cost €30 per day, this is a significant practical advantage.
- Metro station a short walk away — Anagnina station is about 200 m from the property, and it's the end of Line A, meaning you can usually get a seat heading into the city. The journey to Rome's centre takes around 20 minutes on the train.
- Spacious, well-equipped apartments — Rooms come with kitchenettes, generous space, and comfortable beds. The Family Annex Apartment includes a king bed, air conditioning, and heating. Several guests praised the room size and quality for the price.
- Clean and good value — With a value rating of 8.4 and repeated comments about cleanliness and budget appeal, the hotel delivers a solid standard for what you pay, especially compared with central Rome options.

Worth weighing
5 to weigh- Location is far from the historic centre — The hotel is on the southern edge of Rome, next to the GRA ring road. While the metro helps, you're looking at a 20-minute ride plus walking time to see the main sights — a drawback for those who want to be in the thick of the action.
- Crossing a motorway entrance to reach the metro — To get to Anagnina station on foot, you have to cross a busy road with a motorway entrance. Guests describe it as dangerous during rush hour, though manageable at other times.
- Low facilities rating — The facilities category scores just 2.5 out of 10. This is an aparthotel with basic amenities — no restaurant, gym, or pool — so expectations should be adjusted accordingly.
- Check-in window ends at 22:30 — If you're arriving on a late flight, you'll need to plan ahead, as check-in closes at 22:30. The reviews suggest staff are flexible, but the official window is limited.
- Not ideal for those without a car — Apart from the metro access (which involves the motorway crossing), the hotel is in a residential-commercial area with little to walk to. A car, which parking makes easy, broadens your options significantly.

8.2Verified guest“Very nice hotel with excellent service for the price. Rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff were very friendly, always happy to help and even drove us to the metro station. The metro gets you to the centre in about 20 minutes. I would definitely recommend it to young people visiting Rome.”
8.2Verified guest“Very kind reception, free parking, small but punctual kitchen, and close to the metro station. We could walk to the station as traffic was light on the weekend, and you can also ask the reception for a lift in the morning and evening.”
8.2Verified guest“Room size was very good and comfortable. The kitchen was fully equipped except for a knife, which was not a problem. The bathroom was spacious and the garden outside was lovely. I had a very comfortable stay with my young child. I can recommend this hotel for long stays, but be aware the location is quite far from the city.”
8.2Verified guest“Very clean and the staff are very nice. They helped with most issues, especially bringing me to and from the Anagnina metro station.”
8.2Verified guest“The staff were incredibly helpful, going out of their way to make sure I could get to the metro station safely, and helping me order a pizza when I arrived too late to go out for dinner. Since I don't speak Italian, they translated the menu and made the call for me.”
8.2Verified guest“Good location to operate from. The metro station is about 200 m away, a shopping centre is close by, and it's 20 m from the GRA ring road. The room was clean and relatively quiet considering the nearby highway and street.”
