Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Small breakfast served off-site — Breakfast is limited (e.g., cornetto and cappuccino) and served at a nearby bar, not in the hotel, which may not suit everyone.
  • Strict check-in window — Check-in is only from 07:30 to 12:00, so arriving later in the day could be a challenge unless arranged.
  • No on-site parking — Parking is available on the street (€8/day) or in a safe garage (€27/night), but not provided by the hotel.

“Beautiful part of Rome, a few steps from the Vatican and 4–5 minutes' walk from the metro. Rooms nicely decorated with gobelin tapestries, very friendly staff, daily cleaning, and a good shower. Several cafés and traditional Italian restaurants nearby. Probably the best value for money.”

8.6Verified guest

“A really nice, safe place on the fifth floor (with lift) of a typical Roman building. The room was spacious with a big north-facing window overlooking Piazza Risorgimento – comfortable temperatures even without visible A/C on a 30°C day. Tastefully decorated, extremely clean, and run by very helpful, pleasant people. Breakfast is small and served at a nearby bar (2 minutes' walk), but that suited me. Right next to the Vatican (5 minutes) and a major shopping street, with Piazza del Popolo a 15-minute walk. Highly recommended in the €100 range.”
