# Hotel Artemide vs The Hive Hotel

Via Nazionale spa four-star against Imperial Rome / Piazza Venezia four-star — higher guest scores, or a larger sample with parking and Forum walks.

## Why this pair

Both come up when readers want a four-star between Termini and the ancient centre. One leads on scores and spa polish; the other leads on sample size, parking and Forum distance. That earns a page.

## Verdict

Take Artemide for the 9.6 supplier score and stronger room/food categories; take The Hive for Piazza Venezia at 0.2 km, private parking and 8,739 reviews — accepting food and beverage at 7.76 and amenity charges named as cons.

Position splits the ancient-centre walk. Artemide puts Termini at 0.6 km and the Colosseum at 1.2 km; The Hive puts Piazza Venezia at 0.2 km, the Forum at 0.4 km and the Colosseum at 1 km. Location scores 10 against 9.27 — Artemide wins the number; The Hive wins the Forum pin.

Guest scores favour Artemide: 9.6 out of 10 from 2,584 reviews as of 10 January 2026 against 8.7 from 8,739 as of 10 December 2025. The larger sample belongs to The Hive. Room quality is 9.66 against 8.72; food and beverage 9.66 against 7.76 with limited food options named. Artemide’s cons (slow elevator, no room service) are milder than The Hive’s food and amenity-charge story.

Facilities overlap on spa depth — both list restaurant, fitness, spa/wellness and sauna — but only The Hive lists parking and private parking. Neither lists pets or a pool.

Check-in is from 02:00 PM until 11:30 PM at both. Check-out edges to Artemide (12:00 PM against 11:30 AM at The Hive). Both are independent in the property’s records.

**Best for:**
- Choosing between a higher-scoring Via Nazionale spa hotel and a Forum-side four-star with parking
- Travellers weighing sample size against category scores

**Not for:**
- Anyone who needs a Pantheon doorstep — Nazionale is the closer Pantheon pin
- Guests who need a pool — neither lists one

## Which is better for the Forum and Colosseum?

The Hive on the POI table — Forum 0.4 km and Colosseum 1 km against Artemide’s Colosseum at 1.2 km with no Forum pin as close. Artemide still leads on supplier rating (9.6 against 8.7) and room quality.

## Do both have a spa?

Yes — both list spa/wellness centre, fitness, sauna and hammam. The Hive’s guest analysis still names additional charges for amenities; read the rate rules before you assume the spa is included.
