Dulcis In Vatican b&b is a guest house in the Trionfale district of Rome, about 1 km from the Vatican Museums and 200 metres from Valle Aurelia metro station. The property offers guests a garden, a terrace, a common lounge and concierge service, as well as a tour desk and luggage storage for those arriving or departing at ease.
The rooms, all non-smoking, are equipped with air conditioning, a desk, a patio with garden view, a private bathroom and a flat-screen TV; several units also feature a fully equipped kitchenette, a balcony and courtyard views. WiFi is free throughout the property, while breakfast is Italian style.
The location is particularly appreciated by couples, who rated it 9.2 for a two-person trip, and by guests in general for its proximity to the main Vatican attractions and rail connections. A practical address for those wanting to visit Rome while staying a step away from the Vatican, without giving up outdoor spaces and a homely touch.
Dulcis In Vatican b&b offers three types of double rooms, all around 14 sqm and designed for two people, with very similar furnishings and amenities but a few useful differences to know before choosing. All rooms feature air conditioning, a desk, a patio with garden view, a private bathroom and a full kitchen with hob, fridge, dishwasher and utensils, as well as an electric kettle and minibar.
What sets the three options apart are mainly the bed and a few details of the outdoor space or bathroom: one room has a balcony overlooking the garden with its own washing machine, another focuses on a patio and garden view with a large double bed, while the third stands out for its private bathroom with external access and the extra-large double bed. A compact range but with different options for those looking for a balcony, a view, or simply more space in bed.
The only one of the three rooms with a private balcony overlooking the garden, ideal for those wanting their own outdoor space. It also has a washing machine in the room, a full kitchen with hob and dishwasher, air conditioning and a private bathroom with shower.
The most classic option in the property, with a comfortable desk for those travelling for work, a patio with garden view and an interior private bathroom. The kitchen is fully equipped with hob, fridge and dishwasher, for stays with greater independence.
The only room with an extra-large double bed, larger than the other two types, and with a private bathroom accessed externally rather than internally. Rounded off by a patio, garden view and a well-equipped kitchen.
