Great stuff and very nice heritage hotel. Excelent location near Vatican City and City center.

Konstantin Israel

The restaurants around it and the size of the rooms

Roberto United States of America

The best part of our experience were the wonderful gentlemen at the front desk, Luca, Giancarlo and Roberto. I don't know how we would have managed without their assistance. We left the hotel after 2 days to take a side trip to Florence and could not wait to get back to our hotel Diplomatic and the amazing personal service we received.

Rita United States of America

This is our fifth stay atHotel Diplomtic. We love the location and the amazing toaster, but we come back because the staff are so wonderful. From the front desk to the kitchen staff to housekeeping they treat us like beloved family

Phyllis United States of America

The location was perfect. The continental breakfast exceeded our expectations.

Patricia United States of America

The staff was very helpful. The location was perfect. The breakfast was good. I would stay there again in the future and recommend the hotel to family and friends.

Steven United States of America

Its location is perfect, you can move everywhere in a few minutes, the staff is very friendly always allowed for help you

Andres Chile

Great location in between the Spanish Steps and the Vatican. Would recommend for location.

Martin United States of America

The hotel's location is excellent - walking distance from city center and the Vatican, main buses are right outside the door. The staff is friendly and always eager to help. Room was comfortable , clean. Around the hotel a few good places to eat.

Marcky Israel

The hotel has a perfect location to all the necessities. All the sites were in walking distance and the bus was right outside the front door. The people at the desk had excellent recommendations for great restaurants and was very conscious about even getting us a cab to go to the airport. They spoke English so communication was easy. Very good and comfortable experience.

Anne United States of America

An Inside Look at Hotel Diplomatic

The Hotel Diplomatic, which has been entirely refurbished, offers 45 air conditioned rooms, elegantly and stylishly furnished; great attention has been paid to detail, from the choice of materials to the finishings. On the first floor there is a large patio, an outdoor space full of light, a quiet ideal place in which to relax and unwind. The hotel features an internet point and free Wi-Fi internet connection in every room. The Hotel is right next door to the imposing and monumental Castel Sant’Angelo, originally built by the Emperor Hadrian as his mausoleum and which, over the centuries, became first a military fortress and then papal residence. Nearby is the Vatican City, with the huge square dominated by St. Peter’s Basilica. On the opposite bank of the river Tiber, within walking distance of the hotel, are the Spanish Steps, the Trevi Fountain, the Pantheon and Piazza Navona.
