I especially like the personal touch of this small hotel. The lady behind the front desk is super friendly, helpfull and interested. She gave us very good suggestions for restaurants in the neighbourhood. The room, even though it was on the street side, was very quiet.

We absolutely loved our stay at Horti. The hotel itself is a little haven, the rooms were incredibly comfortable, clean, and light. The staff were really helpful, the breakfast was delicious, and it was lovely to be able to sit on the roof terrace. It’s only a short work to Trastevere too and a good location (20-30 minute walk) to the Vatican - excellent value for money. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.

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.

The apartment is atmospheric and spacious! It features a lot of wood, is very stylish, and has everything you need (toaster, coffee machine, etc.). The owner is amazing—very helpful, always available, and offers great advice. The Nino restaurant is exceptional—delicious pizza. The apartment is an 8-minute walk to the metro if you plan to visit the Colosseum, and 30 minutes on foot to the Vatican. I think this is the best deal in Rome, and it’s just very cozy there.
I had an amazing experience staying at the Vaticanella apartment in Rome! The location is perfect, just a short walk from the Vatican, making it incredibly convenient to explore the city’s main attractions. The apartment is clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated, offering all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The hosts are exceptionally friendly and attentive, always ready with helpful tips about the city. It’s the perfect place to feel at home in the heart of Rome. I would definitely stay here again!
We absolutely loved our stay at Horti. The hotel itself is a little haven, the rooms were incredibly comfortable, clean, and light. The staff were really helpful, the breakfast was delicious, and it was lovely to be able to sit on the roof terrace. It’s only a short work to Trastevere too and a good location (20-30 minute walk) to the Vatican - excellent value for money. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.
The location is great - just 5 minutes away from the Vatican, if you like walking you can reach any site by foot. The room was just for 3 persons and it had a separate bathroom. The towels were furnished and there was a hair drier. There’s a nice terrace and the interior’s very cozy, it feels more like an apartment, rather than a hostel. There are boxes for keys that open with a code, so you can arrive after the reception is closed.
The room vas very clean and comfortable. The apartment is near the Vaticano and has smooth connection to other remarcable parts in Rome, and the Sit shuttle bus to the airport stop very close.
Camilla answered all our questions and she is very gentle.
Very good and quiet location. Clean and big apartment. A grocery store is a 5-minute walk away. A 15-minute walk from the Vatican and the metro station Ottaviano. There are many cafes around. All the most popular sights can be reached on foot. I recommend this apartment as a very good place to stay in Rome.
The Vatican Bridge House was amazing for our trip to Rome, only a ten minute Walk to the Vatican with shops restaurants & supermarkets all in easy reach. The apartment was so comfortable with everything we needed our host even supplied Coffee & tea which was so thoughtful lovely ground floor apartment with small garden. So easy to communicate with our host who even allowed us check in early as we had an early flight. Will definitely be back.
Very nice room in a small apartment, just behind the Vatican, close to the Cipro metto station.
Easy to go around Rome, while staying off the crowded center, in a more popular and residential area.
Good communication with the owner: Rita provided good hints and addresses.
A small, cozy, clean hotel with a very friendly, charming owner. Situated almost in the center of Rome, near the Vatican. Everything is so close from it that we never used any transport.
One get get to st. Peter's Basilica in only 15 minutes on foot.
The hotel is clean, walking distance from the train station Termini, a nice area, there are some cafes and a grocery store around. The staff was polite
Opposite the hotel there is a bus stop that goes to the center of Rome and to the Vatican.

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.
