Hotels in Near the Vatican City, Rome

Disgusting, rude & without power. We opted to stay here for 5 nights while visiting Rome. Upon check in everything seemed normal. Once we made it to our room we discovered a dirty comforter on our bed and shoes marks as if someone has been stepping on the bedding. After checking out the shower I noticed that the ceilings are covered in mold and the toilet hardware was rusting. On our second night there we returned from an excursion ant 10pm and found that lobby & hallway lights were working but our room was pitch black. The lights & air conditioning were not working. Our television & certain power outlets would work though. This would lead many to believe a fuse was blown within the property. We went downstairs to alert the front desk and were blown off. He said it would be back soon. We went back to our room to sit in darkness for an hour until making our way back downstairs for an update. 3 other guests were also waiting for an update as they were experiencing the same issue. The man at the front desk was obviously overwhelmed and was getting zero feedback from his manager or the “electric company”. While we were waiting another couple was trying to check in and got into a heated argument with the man at the front desk where they yelled at each other for 5 minutes. After this settled down we asked the other employee that was down there for an update and he scoffed at us & told me to call the electric company for myself. We went back up to our rooms to attempt to sleep but could not due to the employees sitting outside our window and smoking & being loud. Our power did not come back on until 5:30am. I have tried to reach out to the hotel multiple times for some type of refund, at least for one night and they have called me a liar & refused to refund. They also state that this was an outage in the area and not a fuse blown however all other bars, restaurants and hotels in the area had power. The street lights were also on all night. The hotel lobby and hallways also had power & were not the emergency lights like the hotel has tried to claim. DO NOT STAY HERE.

We had a wonderful stay at the hotel! The staff was superb- super friendly and helpful and the room was quiet, clean, and modern. Very close to the Vatican and close proximity to shopping and restaurants. We would definitely stay at the Hotel Vespaisiano during our next visit to Rome!

We stayed at Hotel ISA for 12 nights, and couldn't have picked a better location. It was in walking distance to many of the sights, and convenient to the Metro. The breakfast on the terrace was wonderful with a great view and variety of food. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. The air conditioning was not on yet (which we found out is normal for Europe this time of year), and we requested a fan for our room. Within an hour or 2 they had delivered a floor fan which was a big help sleeping at night. The room was also equipped with soundproof widows. There are also many restaurants and gelato places near by for convenience. I would like to thank the staff for making our stay great, and I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel.

La struttura è abbastanza centrale, vicinanza di mezzi pubblici. Difficile parcheggiare per chi arriva in macchina. Il personale è gentile disponibile e cordiale. Le stanze economiche sono datate come arredamento e servizi. Ma per il prezzo pagato va più che bene.

Excellent location - we walked easily to get breakfast lunch dinner and to the main sites. Although it was 20-45 mins walk it was well worth it to see the city! We felt safe and although this was like an BnB there was housekeeping and extra toiletries available right outside the room. The downside to this room was the sewage smell and construction upstairs. The host was very on top of the service and instructions and made it easy to communicate with. We appreciated the rose petals!!

This hotel was great. It was our first time in Rome and we loved the location and our room. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable, the room was clean from floor to ceiling, and the bathroom was both clean and seemed newly renovated. We really enjoyed coming back here everyday after a full day of walking and sightseeing. The neighborhood around the hotel is incredibly beautiful and safe. We loved walking across the river from there and just soaking up the city. Lots of great cafes around, even several across the street and on the same block. We had friends staying in a different area of Rome's city center and it was run down and dumpy where they were staying. I loved being in this neighborhood which is much nicer and much cleaner. I would stay here again without hesitation.

I find that the breakfast (colazione) is a little average compared to other 4* hotels in Rome; in fact the sweet side is a little weak; no REAL orange juice but concentrated in the machine, the bread is very average, the cut fruit is not great etc. I think we should make an effort on this point (I compare with the mama shelter in Rome which has a small extra full lunch...) go see if you can improve.... can do better for the rest no comments, very professional, kind, patient staff, speaking several languages; the rooms are very good and the cleaning is perfect, nothing to say... I recommend this hotel with a small downside on (the colazione)

This was a stay to celebrate my partner's birthday, we went expecting the pics you can all see on the site however what we found was the room in the picture looking similar but a little worn! We actually felt catfished (maybe kittenfished?) by our hotel room! It was a lovely room however scuffs on the walls could have been fixed easily, holes in the bedding and a simple thing such as replacing a broken curtain tieback meant an eye to detail was being missed here. The shower was sometimes hot and usually cold in the morning, the shower drain didn't like to drain water away and the toilet would continue to flush unless you mastered the button. Mould in the bathroom was another shame and the mirror was getting more wonky each day. The hairdryer in the bathroom is not sufficient to style your hair and pushes cold air at a rate to which my partner blowing on my hair would have been more effective. The hotel did provide me with a proper hairdryer but because I need to blow dry my haircut daily so I don't look like a wild lion I felt while travelling on hand luggage and seeing it in the amenities I could leave mine at home. I wouldn't like another lady to make that same mistake! The staff were lovely and accommodating, very friendly and wanted to be of assistance as much as possible. The breakfast was pleasant and well prepared which we enjoyed, we liked the multi language Sky TV in the room so we could enjoy some chill time. Our only real negative was noise through the wall to the room we had, I am not sure if it was a hotel guest or someone in an apartment next door so bring ear plugs for any events like this, the traffic noise dies down very low at night and so not bad at all! The location is very good and we managed to walk to most of the attractions! We only took a taxi once and that was due to heels and dinner far from where we were staying! I think I would stay here again but hopefully after it has received some TLC! The ideas are all there to make it exceptional but for me this wasn't a luxury room, though I am sure it was a little time ago!

Had a lovely experience staying here. A 5 minute walk to the metro link which costs €1.50 to get to anywhere in Rome, while also being a 20 minute walk into Campo di Fiori. Had an issue on the first night with the air conditioning however the landlord came within half an hour after receiving our message and fixed immediately. We could not write a review without mentioning Karl. An all round excellent host and a credit to the business. Contacted via WhatsApp with any issues, lovely and attentive when spoken in person, cleaning and restocking the room daily, at our confidence. Thankyou Karl !

We, a family of 8, stayed at „femasuites“ back in October 2022 – finally I get to write a review. It is a very special place: A lovely flat with great interior including 4 bedrooms and 1 kitchen, so we had the whole flat of our own. Our host Marco was an extraordinary host, extremely helpful and nice! We enjoyed our stay very, very much! Femasuites are located in a charming neighborhood close to 2 metro stations. Both the Vatican City and Castel Sant‘Angelo can be reached in walking distance, too. The breakfast – excellent Italian pastry and delicious coffee – was offered at a traditional Italian bar just around the corner which we liked a lot.
