    Great accommodation for Rome explorers

    Bathroom may be a little small for some people; check-in time need to be discussed with the owner, there is nobody at the reception by default. I think it would be nice to add a key safe.

    Authentic house, clean and comfortable . Roof terrace available for the guests. Location is perfect and the neighborhood is very pleasant. We didn't use any public transport during our 4 day stay. Owner and staff is very friendly and helpful.

    Incredible Stay by the Vatican

    All good.

    What a gem: an historic building with roof terrace and views of the Saint Peter basilica in the centre of Rome! The room was large and absolutely beautiful. Despite being on a mildly busy road, the soundproofing was so good that we could not hear the traffic at all. The bed was very comfortable, the room size quite generous and the common area with coffee machine, small kitchen and fridge super nice. Everything was spotless clean.

    I was traveling with my mother and we loved everything about this place: location, facilities etc. Our bed was comfortable and bathroom was clean. Maybe just a bit small but perfect for a couple of people. We had a feeling that we were alone in the guesthouse - the other guests were so quiet and polite! The view from a terrace was amazing. Giuliano was a great host, he welcomed us and gave some recommendations as a local:) Next time I’m in Rome, I know a place to stay;) Thank you!

    All was perfect.

    Perfectly decorated, pristine guest house within sight of St. Peters. We could see the lights of the St. Peters cupola from our bedroom window. The rooftop terrace is spectacular. Sound[proofing was amazing, despite a couple other rooms in this great find. Modern bathroom, wonderful antiques in the room and tasteful prints.

    If I have any negative comment, it is that we were very much dependent on the Internet and for the first day we were not able to find the correct password we feel that it should always be posted in the room. Other than that, we felt that everything was excellent.

    There was nothing to dislike!

    Absolutely loved it here! The location is perfect. Right next to Vatican City and within walking distance of the rest of the centre. It’s quiet, clean and feels very modern with its amenities whilst retaining the beauty of a lovely Italian guesthouse. The three members of staff that we met during our stay were all lovely and super helpful with recommendations, taxi bookings, and keeping the accommodation clean.

    Our host was very willing to give suggestions on local restaurants, but it would have been nice just to have a list of nearby restaurants that we could have used. Not having a concierge on site was something that we are not used to but everything turned out fine.

    The location of this hotel is great. It is close to many local restaurants and attractions. It's about a 10 minute walk to the Vatican. The taxi stand is nearby. The room is comfortable and decent size for two people. I like that they gave us free water and cookies when we arrived and fresh flowers on the table were a nice touch. The towels were nice and fluffy. We were able to check in a couple of hours early which we really really appreciated. Also having a washing machine in the kitchen was unexpected but very nice. I'm also very glad that they had an elevator. I recommend this property. I would stay here again.

    I recently had the pleasure of staying at Guesthouse Serafino during my trip to Rome, and I must say, it was an absolutely delightful experience from start to finish! The charming guesthouse, with its ideal location near Vatican City. The host, Giuliano was very nice and helpful. Rooms were beautiful, comfortable and clean. Espresso machine was a lovely touch of the morning. It added a genuine Italian flair to our mornings. Stay at Guesthouse Serafino was an absolute pleasure, I'm already looking forward to my next visit and staying at Guesthouse Serafino once again!

    So convenient for the main sites. Walking distance to St Peter’s & the Vatican. Ten minutes walk to the Metro and 10/15 min journey to other sites. Very clean, comfortable, not cluttered, showers fantastic…loved the fact that we could easily make a sandwich or keep things cool in the fridge. The view from the rooftop is amazing!

    Beautiful room and location. Prati is such a lovely area where local people still live. Everything was clean. We didn’t hear any noise from outside or from other rooms. Check in and check out were great - they waited for us on check in when we were late even though I didn’t respond to their message since I forgot my phone at home and our flight was delayed. I am so grateful for that. Also, we loved the elevator - it is such a rare thing! We were amazed. Can not find any fault with this place. My 4th time in Rome, stayed in lovely places but this one is my favorite. Thank you.

    We were very happy and comfortable so very little negative to say. Would have like a box of tissues in the room.

    Air conditioning over an extremely hot weekend! Peace and quiet. The lift. Roof garden was lovely but much too hot to go up there to sit. Staff very friendly - they were very helpful . Had recommendations for good breakfasts nearby.
