We stayed for 3 nights at the Hotel Alimandi and had a superior double room, which was very well appointed, spotlessly clean and very comfortably furnished to a high standard. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Nico on reception, recommended two restaurants for us to try during our stay, both were excellent. This was our second trip to Rome and we would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel.

It was our first time in Rome and we really enjoyed it. We stayed in a spacious triple room with very comfortable beds and a view of the impressing Vatican walls. With the street in front of the hotel, it was a bit noisy, but as soon as we closed our window and switched on the airconditioning, it was calm. Breakfast was outstanding regarding quality, quantity and variety of dishes offered - a perfect start into the day with a very friendly service. Also at the reception desk, we always got friendly, helpful information and service whenever requested (citymap, public transport, taxi, restaurants etc). Next time in Rome, we'll definitely come back.

This hotel was the highlight of our vacation to Italy. My wife and I loved the location. We had a very positive experience. Locations was great. Staff was very helpful and accomodating. Rooms were well appointed. Breakfast was fantastic. I would highly recommend the Alimandi Viale Vaticano.

Hotel is directly across the street from the entrance to the Vatican Museum. Hotel has an excellent breakfast but no restaurant. However the staff recommended some excellent choices within walking distance. The staff went out of their way to be helpful. The young man who worked from 3PM-11PM was exceptionally helpful and friendly. I would certainly stay at this hotel again.

we have stayed here on two occasions and find this to be one of the best places to stay when in Rome if you can afford a little extra.

Brilliant hotel, excellent location, literally over the road from the Vatican Museum. Just a five minute walk from St Peters Square and the bus stops for the open top bus tours is also located outside the square. All the queues for the Vatican and the Colosseum are about 2-3 hours long and cost about 13 euros. I would advise that you join an organised tour, it costs about 30-40 euros each which sounds a lot but you dont have to join the main queue and you get the advantage of a qualified tour guide and a headset explaining everything. This is a good idea as there is so much to see you probably wouldnt know what you were looking at plus time waiting in queues only eats into your time especially if you are only there for a couple of days. The taxis are reasonable but the drivers dont speak english and drive like Nigel Mansell!. Be careful of accepting roses from venders as they give you them and then stand there waiting for you to pay them. We gave them 4 euros and they thought that wasnt enough. Restaurants vary in price but are usually priced up outside. When you have paid the bill try and make sure you dont need a lot of change back as they dont know the meaning o giving back your change unless you ask, they think its a a big tip. Some bars are very expensive so have a quick look before you order. We ordered two lagers and two cappuccinos outside the vatican and it cost us 26 euros!!. All the sites trevi, spanish steps are located over the river from this hotel but the taxis costs about 5-7 euros so it isnt too bad. Overall the rooms are lovely, very clean we were advised to choose a room at the back becasuse it was noisy at the front, but i dont think this is the case in August as all the romans seem to go on holiday and in their eyes the city is quiet. I would definatley go again to the vaticano, lovely staff and welcome, well worth the money.

The rooms were exactly as represented on the site. The location was great, the windows kept the noise outside and the staff was very helpful. We would stay here again.

We had a wonderful 3 night stay at the Hotel Alimandi. It was the end of a beautiful 3 week vacation in Italy and it ended on a very possitive note. The room was spotless, and although we were on the Viale Vaticano there was never a problem with noise! Breakfast was amazing - what a way to start a day! Location was perfect - opposite the doors to the Vatican. 5 minuite walk to St. Peters Square and a 10 minuite bus ride to the center of town. The staff was always friendly and willing to help. I would recommend this hotel with my eyes closed! Also, a must do... the Roman forum tour - with Roman Oddesy tours. See their website!

Family of 4 stayed at Alimandi for the 2nd time in 7/07. Stayed previously in 7/05. Came back a 2nd time because it is a top notcjh hotel. Convenience to the Vatican can not be beat. Our family had the best room which has a private balcony looking out onto the street where you can see the tourists lining up in front of the entrance to the Vativan Museum. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful, internet available in lobby, free breakfast which is outstanding. If we go back to Rome for a 3rd time we would stay again at hte Alimandi Vaticano. Convenient to transportation (walking distance). Some of the tourist sites are a little out of the way with the exception of the Vatican but the price, service and overall hotel experience outweighs that. Excellent hotel, great value.
