Dante is an adults-only bed and breakfast in Rome’s Esquilino district, 600 metres from Porta Maggiore and the same distance from Vittorio Emanuele metro station. The property caters to those seeking a practical, quiet base for exploring the capital, away from the noise of large families and close to rail connections: Santa Bibiana railway station is just 50 metres away.
The rooms, equipped with air conditioning, flat-screen TV and private bathroom with shower and hairdryer, come in two types: the simpler Superior, and the Deluxe with balcony and city view. Guests can also make use of a common lounge for shared relaxation.
The location in the heart of Rome makes it possible to walk to places such as the Temple of Minerva Medica, the Domus Aurea and, a little further on, the Colosseum. The Termini Station area also ensures quick connections to the rest of the city and the airports, making Dante a convenient choice for short or extended stays in the capital.
B&B Dante offers two types of double room, both 15 square metres and designed for two people. They share air conditioning, a private bathroom with shower and hairdryer, a wardrobe and a flat-screen TV, features that ensure a functional stay even for those staying just a few nights in the capital.
What mainly sets the two options apart is the Deluxe Room, which adds a balcony with city view compared to the more basic Superior Double Room. Both are furnished with a large double bed and quality bed linen, ensuring good rest after days spent visiting the archaeological sites and historic squares nearby. The choice between the two therefore depends mainly on whether or not there is an outward-facing view.
Air-conditioned double room with wardrobe and private bathroom complete with shower and hairdryer. It is the most basic room type in the property, without an outward-facing view, designed for those seeking a practical solution for their stay in Rome. Equipped with flat-screen TV and bed linen included.
Unlike the Superior, this air-conditioned double room is the only one with a balcony offering a city view, a notable advantage for those who want to enjoy some urban glimpses even from their own room. The accommodation is completed by a wardrobe and private bathroom with shower.
B&B Dante provides guests with free WiFi and air conditioning in all areas, along with a common lounge with TV area for relaxing. The property, reserved exclusively for adults, is entirely non-smoking and features a lift, heating and an on-site minimarket for small daily needs.
For those arriving by car, a garage is available, while internet access is also provided via flat-screen TV in the common rooms. All rooms also include an iron and ironing board on request and marble or tiled flooring.
The private bathrooms are equipped with shower, hairdryer, bed linen and towels, while the rooms offer a wardrobe or closet, a desk and convenient electrical outlets near the bed, ensuring an organised stay even for longer periods.
Dante is located in the Esquilino district, between Termini Station and the Celio area, a lively residential neighbourhood halfway between the major railway hubs and the monuments of ancient Rome. Around the property there are small restaurants and bars such as Le Naumachie dai Romani and La Taverna Italiana, both about 100 metres away, ideal for an informal dinner after a day of sightseeing.
The location ensures quick connections: Santa Bibiana railway station is just 50 metres away, while Vittorio Emanuele metro station can be reached in about 400 metres and Termini Laziali station in 300 metres. Those arriving by plane will find Ciampino airport 11 km away and Fiumicino airport about 21 km away, both connected to the city centre by public transport or private transfers.
Just a short distance away are the Temple of Minerva Medica, at 200 metres, and Porta Maggiore, at 550 metres, while the Domus Aurea and the Colosseum are about 1.3 and 1.4 km away and can be comfortably reached on foot in twenty minutes. A little further on, past Piazza San Giovanni in Laterano and the National Roman Museum, you reach Trevi Fountain and Piazza di Spagna, both about 2.5 km away. The area is well suited all year round to walks among ruins, churches and urban gardens such as the Nymphaeum Park.
