I cannot thank the staff enough. Everyone was so kind. We loved our days in this hotel. The room was large and ventilated. The breakfast was pretty good too, the lady who served it was nice and proactive. Close to Vatican, easy to explore the city. I definately will come back when in Rome again.

No complaints at all. The location was perfect, the hotel was nice and quiet. Breakfast was amazing, lots of choice. All members of staff had a smile on their faces and were aways happy to help.

Excellent location in the center of Rome. All the main attractions of the city are within walking distance - the Colosseum, St. Peter's Basilica, the Vatican, Castel Sant'Angelo, the Pantheon and much more. Polite, friendly staff, always ready to help. A nice addition to the hotel is the 24-hour open observation deck on the 7th floor (roof of the hotel), as well as the bar located there, where it was nice to sit in the evenings, drink a cocktail and admire the city at night. We also liked the delicious breakfasts and the cleanliness of the hotel. Great place!

The Vatican
The world’s smallest state is also one of its most attraction-packed spots. As the centre of the Catholic Church, Vatican City is chock-full of awe-inspiring religious architecture and artistic treasures. Must-sees include the imposing St Peter’s Basilica – so vast that the Statue of Liberty could fit comfortably under its dome – and the mesmerising frescoes of the Sistine Chapel.

It's hard to give this a mediocre review, as there were breathtaking things to see, but it felt like a cattle mart. It wasn't clear how to navigate the vastness of the museums and there were people pushing in all directions. The Sistine Chapel was noisy and lacking any kind of ambience (I feel for Michelangelo's suffering painting these ceilings that see gawking but no worship of the deity they're meant to point to). Please don't give the Rome Tourist Card by Tiqets a moment's glance. They charged us 3x more than standard entry, with no added benefit. Do consider a tour if you can, it'll ensure you see the highlights and find out some memorable stuff along the way.

Allow 3 - 5 hours to really experience all of the antiquities. Buy tickets online to skip the queue. Even though we did this we had to line up for 20 minutes, it was extremely hot. Suggest you take an umbrella for shade

Is it a visit that will be remembered for a lifetime!!
Is it a visit that will be remembered for a lifetime!! starting by the St. Peter’s Piazza and how impressive it is and how welcoming, until you go to Saint Peter’s Cathedral and climb to the roof and dome. Exceptional experience!! Even when we were waiting in the queue for our turn to enter, we couldn’t get bored. The exuberance and richness around us was unbelievable.

We had a wonderful stay at this apartment near the Vatican in Rome, close to the Ottaviano metro station. The apartment was very clean and comfortable, with an equipped kitchen, a spacious bathroom, an extra WC with a sink, a washing machine, and an iron. It made exploring Rome easy and allowed us to feel like true Romans for a week! The warm welcome, helpful information, and assistance from Ilaria were invaluable.
Fantastic location for St Peter’s Basilica and the Vatican museum. Great restaurants nearby. Our room was spotless and spacious and I loved the feeling that we were staying in an apartment not a hotel room.
The apartment on the first floor overlooking Tunesia St. has an excellent location right next door (150m) to the Vatican Museum, restaurants, shops and very close to the Metro (300m).
It comes with a complete kitchen, washing machine, iron, hair dryer, etc.
Our host was helpful explaining how to get around and giving hints what to do and when. He kindly organised transfer to the airport.
Absolutely to be recommended.
A large, clean, air-conditioned and equipped apartment. Very close to Ottaviano station and the Vatican. Around the apartment there are restaurants and shops. Highly recommend!
This apartment was clean, relatively spacious, modern, good shower and bathroom, two night tables, good lighting. I could open the large windows for fresh air. Easy to get in and out with a code.
Most importantly, for me, walkable distance from Coliseum, Trevin Fountain, Spanish steps, Piazza Repubblica... Near some good cafés, restaurants and a main artery, Via Nazionale. Two metros near by to get to the Vatican.
The staff was very helpful on getting a taxi for the airport.
I had an amazing stay at this charming apartment! It's brand-new, safe, and perfectly located within walking distance of the Vatican. The apartment had everything I needed to feel right at home—coffee for those early mornings, a hair dryer, and a fully equipped kitchen with pots, pans, and dishes. The decor was stunning, with a beautiful wall of classic wallpaper that added such a lovely touch to the room. You can tell there's been real care and thought put into every detail. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Rome!
We enjoyed the location and the close proximity to the sights of Rome. The apartment is very close to the Vatican city and the river, and there are multiple good restaurants nearby
Everything was perfect ! From the location (Train station, the Vatican are really close), the apartment (clean,quiet,comfortable,safe) to the kind and friendly owners. The type of place I'd book again if I ever come back to Rome. :D

check out the hotels for your ideal location, you get very good value for money from smaller hotels/ bed and breakfast/ guest houses etc. Use the hop on hop off buses, buy tickets to the main tourist attractions in advance, unless you like to wait in line a lot! Vatican is manic, I went in March and it was starting to get busy, I can imagine it would be very hot and uncomfortable in the height of the season.

If you take the time to go through the streets north of the Vatican you can find many small stores where the locals shop. As well as the popular brands and designer labels these streets are full of market stalls with lots of bargains and lovely small deli's and cafes that sell many wonderful local goodies. Great restaurants in this area too, well worth spending a few hours of the day finding a treasure or two.

Get a 48-hour pass on one of the "hop on, hop off" sightseeing bus services. Many of them also offer "skip the line" tickets for certain sights. These tickets are worth every cent. There are tourists waiting in long lines everywhere, which will waste a lot of your time and energy. Rome is an intense tourist destination with much to see. Plan well, do research and be prepared to spend extra on special services. You will need at least 5 days to a week to truly see most of the major landmarks. Just the Vatican Museum offers so much that you could easily spend 3 days inside and still not truly see most of it.

As it's Rome there will always be tourists everywhere but DO NOT go with any tour group guaranteeing to skip lines, the queues are never as bad as they look. We were told a "5 hour queue for Vatican and the Sistine chapel" but if we joined a tour we can go straight in...for a €50 fee. We opted out and queued and were in and out of the Vatican, Vatican museum and Sistine Chapel within 2.5 hours all for a quarter of the price (student and EU citizen discounts). The same goes for the colosseum. Go at your own pace and avoid the scammers. The hotel had basic tourist maps which were perfect and we easily found our way. But we did find there were always less people between 12-1 as they had gone to find food by then.

The Colisseum and the Vatican are probably the main attractions, but there are dozens of monuments, museums, gallaries, fountains and churches that all offer a piece of ancient or modern history. Even the roads and walls and buildings seem to tell a story about one of the most preserved ancient cities in the world.
