Duca’s House is a guest house in the Ostiense district of Rome, about 900 meters from Roma Ostiense Railway Station and less than one kilometer from Garbatella Metro, in a residential area well connected to the historic center.
The property offers four room types, all air-conditioned, with a private bathroom fitted with a bidet, desk, coffee machine, refrigerator, safe and flat-screen TV. Some rooms overlook a quiet inner courtyard, while others have a balcony with a street view; sizes range between 20 and 25 square meters. Access is managed through an automatic code-based check-in system, convenient for guests arriving at flexible times.
The atmosphere is that of a family-run guest house, suited to those looking for a simple, well-organized stay without giving up the convenience of walking to the capital’s main attractions. Couples in particular appreciate the location, while the proximity to neighborhood bars and restaurants makes even shorter stays practical. WiFi is free throughout the property.
The rooms at Duca’s House share a common setup: air conditioning, private bathroom with bidet, desk, coffee machine, refrigerator, safe and flat-screen TV, plus an independent entrance that allows guests to come and go without passing through common areas. The bed configuration is flexible across all room types, with the option to choose between a large double bed or two separate single beds, a solution useful for both couples and those traveling together.
The main difference between the four rooms concerns the view and the presence of a balcony: one unit opens onto a quiet inner courtyard, while the other three have a balcony with a street view, quiet despite the urban location. The sizes vary slightly, from 20 to 25 square meters, offering some room to choose for those wanting a bit more space.
The only room in the property to overlook a quiet inner courtyard rather than the street, this 20 sqm room offers air conditioning, an independent entrance and a private bathroom with shower and bidet. A quiet option, ideal for those seeking maximum peace during their stay.
At 25 sqm, this is the most spacious room in the property, featuring a balcony with a quiet street view, air conditioning, an independent entrance and a private bathroom with shower. A good compromise between space and outdoor access for those who don’t want to give up a bit of fresh air.
Compared to the courtyard-view room, this 20 sqm unit gains a balcony with a view over a quiet street, while keeping air conditioning, an independent entrance and a private bathroom with shower. More compact than the 25 sqm Deluxe, it still comes with outdoor access.
The fourth room in the range, a twin to the previous one in size and view: 20 sqm with a balcony and a quiet street view, air conditioning and a private bathroom with shower. Useful for those booking multiple rooms at once, such as small groups of friends.
Duca’s House focuses on services designed for a practical, self-sufficient stay. All rooms are air-conditioned and equipped with a private bathroom with bathtub or shower, bidet, toilet, hairdryer and bed linen provided, plus a wardrobe, desk and an electrical outlet near the bed. Each room also has a coffee machine, electric kettle and refrigerator, convenient for guests who want to prepare something without going out.
Overall, the property offers private and express check-in and check-out, a safe, iron, elevator and solutions designed for guests with allergies, as well as an independent entrance that makes arrivals at different times easier. The premises are entirely non-smoking, with a dedicated smoking area outside.
WiFi is free throughout the property, while internet connection and a flat-screen TV are provided in every room. For breakfast or small snacks, a tea/coffee kettle is available.
