It's located across Piazzale Ostiense from the…read morePyramid of Cestius that gives the station its name, just outside Porta San Paolo, in the Ostiense quarter. The preceding station is Garbatella going toward Laurentina, and the following station is Circo Massimo going towards Jonio or Rebibbia. Ok the station is kinda dirty and unremarkable overall, it's a subway and a train station. Trains from here go to Ostia's beaches, but I went in the other direction to Trastevere quarter (rione) and the city centre. The station has escalators that can be in non-working condition. It seems to be a gathering place for the homeless and drunks as well. Little research shows that metro station was opened on February 10, 1955. The mosaics by Enrico Castellani from Italy and Beverly Pepper from the U.S., located in the atrium, have won the Artemetro Roma award. The Porta San Paolo station for the Ferrovia Roma-Lido line runs alongside the metro station. The Stazione di Roma Ostiense, from where main lines FR1, FR3, and FR5 run, is connected to the metro station through the underpass.

At least there are good signs pointing to the Laurentina or Rebibbia/Jonio direction. It is an underground station and I only saw stairs. If there is a lift, I didn't spot it. The station opened in 1955 and is one of the original stations of the line. It's in the core of the tourist areas of the city, near the Imperial forums, Trajan's Market and Trajan's Forum. There are automated ticket vending machines and turnstiles in the ticketing lobby. I did not see any workers or ATAC staff. [Review 19172 overall - 327 in Italy - 142 of 2023.]

Metro Colosseo is the main metro station serving the Colosseum in Rome, it is located on Line B of…read morethe Rome Metro and opened in 1955. The station is in a convenient location for tourists who are heading to the Colosseum and Roman Forum. There is work to make this an Interchange Station however this is not complete yet and the works are currently expected to take until 2025. Like the Colosseum, a lot of scammers seem to circulate within the station and just outside, and do be aware of pickpockets which seem to target this stop in particular on the Rome Metro, I did find the concourse to be quite busy and I did notice a lack of seats throughout the station for demand. I would also advise purchasing tickets beforehand for the same reason, as the ticket hall can be so crowded with queues for the machines, especially when a ticket machine is out of order. If you do have to use a ticket machine, there is an English language option. The platform area seems really worse for wear as well, and it just felt like a letdown compared to metro systems in other cities in particular such as Lisbon and Stockholm. No escalators - steps only! 3* - The location is great for tourists, but the station its-self requires a lot of work.

This is the main train station in Rome…read more It's pretty easy to navigate, as is the case with most of the rail services in Europe. They have a decent selection of restaurants in a good size food hall. The only issue I had was how packed it was! It's extremely busy, so trying to find a table to eat at was a challenge. There is a restroom in the back, but it's for paying customers only. They will check for a receipt, so don't throw it away! The rail system in Rome hits all the major attractions, and goes out to the coast! It's an easy and affordable way to see Rome!

Alert: Termini has an incredible food court!! This review…read moreis more for their food court since I actually didn't travel via train. I discovered the Food Court at Termini because the Hop On Hop Off Bus Station is right outside. Let me tell ya, WHAT A GREAT FIND!!! I can honestly say that the best foods that we had while in Rome was at the Food Court at Termini! It is a multi-level food court with plenty of seating, and plenty of options. I mean, the food options are so diverse! Go with a group and share as many items as possible. Just do it!!

(+) Very fast and affordable way to get around Rome. 1.50 euros for a single trip or better yet, 7 euros for a 24 hours unlimited pass. We would just get the pass and bop around different areas of town. It came in very handy. (-) Kind of dirty. I can only compare to other bullet trains I've used in other countries and I can tell you that Bangkok and Tokyo were both much, much cleaner. (-) Beware of pickpockets! Apparently they are very skilled here. We were warned on our first day in the city by the hotel staff. Luckily we brought jackets that had multiple zipper pockets n the inside, so we made it through the trip without a hitch. Suck on that, gypsies! (+/-) Heavily armed military presence all over at all stations. That is good for protection purposes, I suppose. On the flip side, they always made me a bit nervous as it seemed most of them kept their fingers on their triggers. Yikes. 3 stars. A-Ok. It served it's purpose and did the trick.
