I loved the closeness to the Vatican. This hotel is also close to all the attraction in Rome. We actually walked to all the attractions and back to the hotel with no issues.

Sonia United States of America

The staff are great and very helpful. The designs and interior idea is brilliant. We had a little problem with the internet on the first night which was resolved the second day, I like the fact that they were ready to even give us another room if the wifi wasn't going to work. The location is great.

Ajikobi Russia

Great location, close to the Vatican and good food can be found just around the corner.

Ahmad United Arab Emirates

I really enjoyed my stay here, it's a little far from the touristy spots in Rome, but Uber is cheap, and it's right down the road from the Vatican. The breakfasts offered were pretty standard buffet, the room I had was right next to the stairs but was surprisingly quiet. I would absolutely stay here again!

Justin United States of America

The location is great with perfect public transportation connection. 15 mins walk to Vatican. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room is bigger than expected.

Shu-an United States of America

Great people the people who run the hotel. Nice and accommodating. Place is clean. Simple and affordable great quiet location with not too many tourists. I’ll be back.
