Vatican Holiday Hotel Rome

Location and people great. Average accomodations. Shower flooded but fixed. Room small

Great location for Easter at the Vatican but this was more like a hostel than a hotel. Had a private bathroom and was clean but was very very old and small. If you're on a budget it does the job.

I had a great stay at the Vatican Holiday Hotel Rome. Roxana was attentive to my needs and was very helpful in showing me the map of Rome and sites to see. The staff answered all questions and were simply a joy to be around. The area is safe and quiet surrounded by a courtyard and secure doors. Please check out this hotel when in town.

The location was amazing ( I stayed on the Viale Giulio Ceasare building) but there was no breakfast, the phone wasn't working so there was no way to talk to reception ( I had to email them). Also NO soap or shampoo on the bathroom. The good thing is that they were nice and let me store the luggage there for a couple extra hours until I had to take my train.

much smaller than expected. the bathroom smelled of sewage.the shower was 2x2. and an average person would struggle to get into it. No english TV channels.Breakfast was skimpy and same thing for 7 days...

The Pro's: Location Location Location. It is located within walking distance to the Vatican. We were about 1/2 a block away from the nearest train station, that took you to all the major attractions. The place felt safe. The staff was helpful. Free Wifi which was pretty good. The Con's: You get what you pay for. It's definitely not a 5 star place. However, if you are on a budget and you are only concerned about a place that is safe, clean and you need to rest your head at night this is it. For the rates it is worth going too.

First, the staff was wonderful! They helped with everything from where to eat, to how to get around town easily and cheaply. It's a small B&B, so the amenities are scarce, but for people (like myself) who are there to see the city and only need a good room to come back to, it's perfect! Breakfast is next door at the cafe, but it's included and quaintly local in style (coffee, juice and pastries). Location is great, about a two block walk to the metro station and less than five minutes from the Vatican entrance. The neighborhood is fine with good restaurants and shops. the rooms are smaller than I'm (US) accustomed to, but so are all the other moderately priced rooms in Rome; if you want a big room be prepared to shell out some big bucks! Overall, I would recommend this hotel highly to any tourist planning on visiting Rome and would surely stay there again if I ever find myself in Rome again. P.S. I did see some reviews on here nagging about the AC or room size, those people must understand that the culture in southern Europe is different than that in the west, namely the US. I assure you the room size is average and the AC works fine.

My room was comfortable in a quiet location. The staff was friendly and most helpful in giving me directions to certain destinations. The price was a little steep by comparison to a couple of years ago when I paid half of what I paid this time and the place where I stayed also served two full meals included in the price. I could have done without the "breakfast" that was included in this particular package.

Arrived by cab at two doors in a wall with no hotel sign.After someone(not from the hotel) opened the door we went in to an apartment building with another building being worked on behind it.Finally located door to hotel only to be told they had no rooms and that we would be staying at another place. We then followed the rude hotel worker for about ten or twelve blocks to another hotel where the staff was helpful and had a room for us but only for one night instead of two. The staff from Vatican Holiday Hotel never apologized or offered a refund.We terribly disapointed and had to cut our trip a day short.

We couldn't stay at the hotel that we had reservations for . When we arrived, the building was poorly marked and it seemed empty. Atfer about 20 minutes, we found a man and he said he would take us somewhere else!! We walked 7 blocks with all our luggage. What started out badly turned out for the best. We were welcomed at Ottaviano Bed and Breakfast . Our room was small but clean. We had a private bathroom, refrigerator, AC and television.we were much closer to everything we wanted to see. [...], the owner, was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was served with a smile. So, book at Ottaviano instead!
