I stayed at this hotel located within a walking distance from the Vatican. The rooms had a fridge to stock yourself, which was convenient. The service, like Daniel, was exceptional, especially their accommodation for our large group. The location was amazing, being close to the Vatican and other historical attractions. The dining experience was good, but I missed having some fresh bread. Overall, a great stay with a few minor drawbacks.

The hotel is ideally located within walking distance of major attractions like the Vatican and surrounded by shops and restaurants, offering a convenient stay. The rooms, despite being a bit small, provide a comfortable sleeping experience with a great jacuzzi bath/shower.

My stay at the hotel was amazing! The rooms were spacious, functional, and very clean with a classic feel. Having a free safe and hangers available made my stay even more convenient. However, the coffe machine was a bit difficult to use. The service was exceptional, especially Giuseppe at reception who went above and beyond to assist me. The location was ideal, within walking distance of the Vatican and the historical center. However, the room could have been more roomy due to architectural constraints. The dining experience was a mix of good and poor. The buffet had a nice selection including bread, eggs, cake, juice, ham, and bacon, but some items were difficult to find, and I felt rushed in the mornings. The roof terrace with a bar was a standout feature. Facilities were great overall. The price was worth the value provided.

The location was fantastic, close to major attractions like the Vatican and within walking distance of many other landmarks. The service was top-notch, with attentive staff like Guiseppe and Daniel providing excellent dining recommendations. The dining experience was amazing for the value, offering a generous continental breakfast. The only downside was the lack of a 'Do Not Disturb' sign on the door, but that's easily fixable.
