Filomena Arthouse is a bed and breakfast in the centre of Rome, about 300 metres from Vittorio Emanuele Metro Station and 500 metres from the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, in the district that stretches between Termini and Esquilino.
The property is aimed at those looking for a practical base to explore the city on foot or by public transport: couples, groups of friends and families will find functional rooms here, each with a private bathroom fitted with a bidet, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a minibar. The available rooms include a more compact double option and a larger quadruple room, suitable for small groups or families with children.
An Italian breakfast is served every morning, appreciated by guests as part of the experience. The location is one of the most frequently mentioned strengths: the neighbourhood offers restaurants and cafés just steps away, while sites such as the Domus Aurea, the Colosseum and Porta Maggiore can be reached with a short walk or by metro, making Filomena Arthouse a convenient base for visiting the historic centre without needing to rely on a car.
Filomena Arthouse offers two room types, both designed to ensure a practical stay in the heart of Rome. Each room is equipped with a private bathroom with shower and bidet, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a minibar, features found in all available rooms and that ensure a consistent level of comfort regardless of the room chosen.
The main difference between the two types concerns the size and capacity: the Double Room, more compact in size, is designed for two people and overlooks the property’s inner courtyard, while the Quadruple Room is larger and can accommodate up to four people thanks to the combination of a double bed and a bunk bed, making it the most suitable choice for families or small groups travelling together.
The Double Room is the most compact option in the property, with a view of the inner courtyard that ensures greater peace and quiet compared to street-facing rooms. Equipped with air conditioning, a minibar and a private bathroom with shower and bidet, it is designed for two people and can be configured with a large double bed or two single beds, depending on guests’ needs.
Larger than the Double Room, the Quadruple Room is the ideal choice for families or groups of friends thanks to its 30 sqm and the combination of a bunk bed and a large double bed, which allows it to accommodate up to four people. Here too, air conditioning, a minibar and a private bathroom with shower and bidet are all included.
Filomena Arthouse offers a range of services designed to make a stay in the centre of Rome practical. Key comforts include free WiFi, air conditioning in all rooms and daily housekeeping, alongside useful features such as a safe, magnetic key access and a lift.
All rooms are non-smoking and equipped with a private bathroom complete with shower, bidet, hairdryer and a toiletries set with toilet paper and towels, as well as a wardrobe, desk and electric kettle. A flat-screen TV and minibar complete the in-room offer.
The property, entirely non-smoking, also guarantees safety measures such as fire extinguishers and a smoke alarm, while check-in and check-out can be arranged privately upon request.
Filomena Arthouse is located in the Esquilino district, a short walk from Termini Station, in one of the most central and well-connected areas of Rome.
