Roman Rostislavich (Ukrainian and Russian: Роман Ростиславич; died 1180) was Prince of Smolensk (1160–1172; 1177–1180), Grand Prince of Kiev (1171–1173; 1175–1177), and Prince of Novgorod (1178–1179). He was the son of Rostislav Mstislavich.

Temporarily installed as grand prince of Kiev in July 1171, he was quickly replaced by Andrey Bogolyubsky's brother, Mikhail of Vladimir.^[1]
