A lovely place to stay, staff were excellent and very helpful. Our room was next to the reception so lights at night were a little bit of a problem. The gardens were closed so finding the place was a bit difficult, stay on the bus until you see the Castle and walk around the back then onto the street where the hotel is located. The staff gave good advice on how to get to places.

The location of the hotel was great and close to just about everything in Rome. Waiting for and riding in a taxi takes longer anyways in Rome, so bring your good shoes. The service was excellent, the breakfast ok, cleanliness perfect, noise minimal, the bathroom great, a Coop around the corner and I would highly recomend Roma dei Papi Hotel de Charme to everyone. We'll be back and thanks. Andreas and Laila

Very friendly and helpful staff, quite reasonable rate. Clean rooms, decent breakfast. The staff all speak excellent English, and are helpful with restaurant and other recommendations. The hotel is small (about 8 rooms, as near as I could tell) and occupies a space on the ground floor of what appears to be an office/apt. building. (The exterior photo on the website is of the building in which the hotel is located.) Views from the rooms are of courtyard parking areas, though, at least when I was there, there was not much activity in those areas, so there was not a lot of noise from the outside. There is, however, a lot of noise leak from the lobby/hallway into the rooms, and I heard everytime the people in the neighboring rooms took a shower or used the toilet. Carpeting in the lobby and hallway areas might help absorb some noise from the lobby, but I don't know what would resolve the problem of hearing the neighboring showers. (I heard my neighbor singing in the shower on the first evening!) Light sleepers will have trouble here. But heavy sleepers, and those who don't mind thin walls will be fine. Convenient to St. Peter's and the castle, but a nice walk to the other main tourist areas. (5-10 minutes to get over the bridge.) 10-15 minute walk to the nearest metro station. Someone who wants to be in the heart of all the action in Rome will be disappointed, but someone who wants a small, no-hassle place will enjoy it.

I would definately recommend this hotel to anyone. Appearance a bit deceiving from pictures, you see the building and assume the hotel accomodates the whole building but in actual fact the hotel covers only a small part of the ground floor. This made the place very personal and familiar. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. My mother had a very bad fall on our first day and they couldn't have been more accomodating or concerned. They did everything they could to help and make the rest of her stay more comfortable. If I were returning to Rome, which I sincerely hope to in the future, I would definately go back to this hotel. The location as well as the excellent staff was ideal.

Very nice value for price. Location was ideal. Only issue was that this hotel was a little difficult to locate. Hotel sign was very small and inconspicuous, causing our taxi to circle the area several times. Be sure to have directions with you.

Stephano was a very welcoming host. Louisa was helpful on attractions in area. Room behind office was nicely updated, but small with a view of the alley. However, we spent all of one night in the property so it was adequate for our needs. First visit to Rome and it was very well located for Vatican tour which was our major reason for choosing this area. I would rate it as a true 3-star and comparable to other 3 stars we stayed in on our trip, but room was a bit small. Parking was no charge; about a block walk. They will require cash, no credit card.

This has to be the best location in Rome. It was easy walking distance to ANYTHING, the neighborhood was so beautiful, and the hotel itself was just wonderful!!! The proprietors, Stefano & Arianna were kind, generous, helpful, warm, cheerful, accomodating, and have made their hospitality an art. I could go on and on. We felt so fortunate to have found this hotel. I certainly recommend it highly.

This hotel has manny great characteristics. the first one that stands out is the friendliness. because of its small size the staff new me by name before I could even introduce myself. the location is perfect too. verry close proxcimity to the Vatican city and piazza navona for excelent nightlife. many resturants within walking distance and the general area felt safe with enough people around to walk about at night. The room was newly renoated with manny modern coviniences including new hardwood floors a flat screen TV and there is free internet access the hotel is close to one of the stops on the 110 open bus (touristic bus) and there is a small covenience store near the entrance and a local police station as well. the staff was knowledgeable and friendly. I have recomended this hotel to other friends already who plan to visit in the near future. my one complaint was that there is not a sign outside the building to indicate that you have arrived at the hotel so make sure you have the building number written down. your Taxi Driver will be able to find this place easily.

My husband and I had an incredible time in Rome! We absolutely enjoyed our stay at Roma dei Papi Hotel - Arianna and Stefano are incredible hosts. They made excellent recommendations to us for restaurants, helped us with train bookings, and provided general information and were always available to assist. The rooms and facilities were immaculate and the customer service was top-notch! The staff at Roma dei Papi Hotel clearly take pride in their work and we would gladly recommend this hotel to anyone planning a trip to Rome.

It was by chance that we booked Roma Del Papi Hotel De Charme through Venere. This hotel has everything you could wish for. Its location (they say location is everything) is within walking distance of all of the main attractions. The exterior is a classical building and its interior rooms are newly fitted out in a delightful, modern, chic, classical style. The rooms are spotless and have all modern conviences. The real gems at this hotel are its young owners and managers Arianna and Stefano who are one of the nicest couples we have ever met. We witnessed their kindness to other guests who needed help. They were prepared to go well above the call of duty to make their place feel like a home to all of us. Both speak excellent english,are pleasant and helpful. We will be back and so will many of our friends.
