Location was ideal for visit to the Vatican Museum (2’ walk), to get to the city centre (Bus 492 around the corner took me to the piazza Navona/Pantheon/Campo de Fiori area and to the Barberini Palazzo). Also near metro Ottaviano. Breakfast was reasonably priced at 15 eur and had a good choice of sweet and savory. Bathroom was small but had a great walk in shower, fluffy towels and excellent shampoo and shower gel. Plenty of outlets to charge my devices. Can highly recommend a restaurant nearby, La Locanda di Pietro. Other restaurants nearby as well. Receptionist was very helpful when I had a question about the outlets. No adapter needed for my Belgian chargers.

Vatican Museums

The Vatican Museums are undoubtedly a must-visit. You’ll find these hallowed halls housed in the holy Vatican City. Perhaps that’s why the works here are of such a godly nature – expect true masterpieces (Ever heard of the Sistine Chapel?) and a beauty so supreme it can’t even be tainted by the crowds of trampling tourists.

So much, we took the guided tour, yes very informative, but skimmed so much to fit within the time allowed, massive crowds, next time maybe we will just get entry to take the experience slower. but worth the visit whichever way it is done I am sure.

Expensive, and even more expensive if you take a tour and avoid the endless lines for tickets. Some of the world's greatest painting masterpieces are here. No bare shoulders or hemlines above the knees are allowed.

Probably important to preface this with: I'm not an art person. But I thought we couldn't miss the masterpieces contained here. Turns out, we could have. We went during closing hours for "fewer crowds" but still the sistine chapel was an unpleasant experience. They really try to shove as many people as possible into the place and I was having none of it. Once you go through to the other side of the partition it's much more enjoyable as they won't be barking at you to shove in shove in. It was just not worth it for us, even with a guided tour so we knew what we were seeing.

I visited the Vatican Museum here, not the Vatican itself.

I visited the Vatican Museum here, not the Vatican itself. The Museum has much incredible art, and I booked a walking tour. By the end of the tour (two hours later), I was understandably tired. Most of what I can remember consists of dusty, half-lit rooms, which didn't help. I was glad to get some fresh air. Be aware that, being close to the Vatican and the Piazza S. Pietro, this neighbourhood is a magnet for junk sellers and scammers. Be extra careful here. The police will do nothing about them.

I've been several times before, but my husband had not, so we booked a group guided tour with Viator. I can say that the Catholic Church has RUINED the Vatican museum and the Sistine Chapel with their greed by shoving 25,000-45,000 people per DAY through there with very little time to see anything!! It was NEVER like this before and I'm appalled that it's become so disgustingly greedy to do this! Our tour started at 2:45 and it was SO crowded and SO rushed that we literally had 3 minutes in the Sistine Chapel, which is at the end of the tour, before the nasty guards literally turned all of the lights off and shoved us out the door!!! Can't miss your 5 pm espresso apparently!!! We were literally crowded shoulder to shoulder with others throughout a great deal of the museum and the chapel!!!

The apartment was clean and in a secure complex. Although a bit of a walk to the vatican museums, the Collosseum is within reasonable distance. Connad is down the road and the cutest little restaurant down stairs which serves lasagna to die for. The bathrooms were clean, beds comfortable and facilities to cook where suitable. We cooked breakfast every morning in the apartment before exploring Rome. Communication was also fantastic. I'd stay again.

The guesthouse is right opposite the Vatican Museums, just a two‑minute walk away, extremely convenient. The agent will send you an email prior to check‑in. You need to upload your passport information in advance, after which you will receive the check‑in code. We arrived at around 10 p.m. After getting off the taxi, it was only a short walk to the property. There are restaurants, ice‑cream shops and supermarkets nearby, making the location very practical.

Location was perfect. Just enough off the main tourist routes to feel a bit more intimate but still with plenty of restaurants, tourist shops, cafes and galateria on our street and only a short walk to Vatican Museums or St Peters Basilica. The apartment itself was great. Located through a quiet private courtyard away from the hustle and hustle. Staff were great, met us onsite and prepped the room even though we were arriving early. Very accommodating.

I didn't know the Sistine Chapel didn't allow photography. Frankly, the Hall of Maps at the Musei Vaticani was the most impressive aspect. The entire collection was amazing.

pre-book a tour around the Vatican museums (Sistine Chapel) and St.Peter's as it is well worth the extra money and avoids the massive queues.

If you like museums, pictures and sculptures. When visiting the Capitol and Vatican museums you'll need to give each place twice the time recommended in the guidebooks. There is so much to see every were.

You cannot avoid the crowd.

You cannot avoid the crowd. The best suggestion to visit Vatican museums and St Peter's is to take a guided tour. To visit the Colosseum, book your tickets in advance over the internet and skip the line. Other attractions are easy to visit.
