A quieter alternative to Rome’s bustling historic centre, the elegant Vatican district is full of history and culture. Visit St Peter’s Basilica, one of the most famous churches in the world, or admire stunning Renaissance artwork at the Vatican’s Sistine Chapel.
Pause on pedestrian Ponte Sant’Angelo, Rome’s prettiest bridge, and enjoy unforgettable views of Castel Sant’Angelo fortress, the final resting place of Emperor Hadrian and now a museum and bar.
Set on the West bank of the Tiber, the Vatican district is a short walk across the river from Piazza Navona and the whole of Rome’s historic centre.
For typical Roman restaurants and lively nightlife, follow the river down from the Vatican to characteristic Trastevere.

The location is very good - convenient to Vatican and everything on the right bank of Tiber - major sites, museums and piazzas. We loved walking the wide, tree-lined Via Colo di Rienzo. There is a market nearby where you could get fresh fruit and berries, and a supermarket, if you are tired of restaurants and pizza on the go. The hotel is very quiet, friendly stuff sent us to some very good osterias for dinner, answered all our questions. Very clean and super modern, overall good impression.…
