In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Free Vatican shuttle — Multiple guests highlight the complimentary shuttle that runs to the Vatican, making the outskirts location manageable.
  • Spacious, comfortable rooms — Especially the Superior Double rooms, which offer garden views and ample space, as noted by reviewers.
  • Helpful, accommodating staff — From arranging room changes to providing local advice, the team earns consistently positive mentions.
  • Good value for the price — With rates starting at $57 and solid amenities, the hotel is seen as a budget-friendly alternative to central Rome.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Limited dining options — The restaurant lacks a fixed menu for dinner, and the low dining rating (5/10) suggests room for improvement.
  • Rooms and cleanliness could be better — A 6/10 rating for rooms and cleanliness indicates some inconsistency, though individual reviews are generally positive.
  • Outskirts location — About 6 km from Vatican City and far from most historic attractions, the setting is quiet but requires the shuttle or a car.
  • Unusual check-out time — Check-out starts as early as 1:00 AM, which may catch late-night guests off guard.

“The property had an upscale feel, with accommodating staff and a terrific location near the underground metro. Service was good, food was great, and parking was on site. I thoroughly enjoyed my 3-night stay.”

7.8Verified guest

“The best thing about this hotel is its tranquillity. The distance from the centre is both a drawback and a huge benefit — after dealing with Rome's traffic, arriving here to rest is wonderful. Rooms are very spacious with comfortable beds and all expected amenities: air conditioning, refrigerator, safe, room service. Breakfast is complete and varied, as you'd expect from this category; I can't comment on lunch because we didn't eat there, but we did have dinner one night. The hotel didn't have a fixed menu, but the suggestions were quite varied. If you want to visit Rome without paying €500 for a central hotel, this is a good option.”
