BorgoNove is a bed and breakfast in the Prati district of Rome, just 200 meters from St. Peter’s Square and 550 meters from the Vatican Museums. The property is located in a quiet yet very central residential area, particularly appreciated by couples, who give it a score of 9.8 for location.
The rooms, all with private bathrooms featuring a shower and bidet, air conditioning and a flat-screen TV, mainly differ in size and view: they range from 10 square meters in the most compact room to 18 in the Superior, with views alternating between garden, inner courtyard and glimpses of the city. Each room is designed for couples or small family groups, thanks to the possibility of accommodating an extra child.
The location allows guests to walk to Ottaviano Metro Station in about 650 meters and to Roma San Pietro Railway Station in less than a kilometer, while the neighborhood’s bars and trattorias are just steps from the entrance. A convenient reference point for those who want to visit the Vatican and the historic center without giving up the tranquility of a residential area.
The rooms at BorgoNove share a consistent basic setup: private bathroom with shower and bidet, air conditioning, heating, flat-screen TV and an electric kettle for tea or coffee in the room. All feature a double bed, either French-style or large, and are designed mainly for couples, with the option of adding a child in some room types.
The main difference between the three options concerns size and view. The Economy Double Room, the most compact at 10 square meters, overlooks the inner garden; the Standard Double Room increases to 16 square meters with a city view and can accommodate up to three people; the Superior Double Room reaches 18 square meters, the most spacious in the property, while retaining the city view. A range designed for those who want to choose the space best suited to their Roman stay.
