Gregory B&B Vatican is a bed and breakfast in the Aurelio district of Rome, about 900 metres from St. Peter’s Basilica and a few hundred metres from the Vatican Gardens.
The property is aimed at those visiting Rome for cultural or religious reasons who want to stay within walking distance of the main Vatican sites, but also at couples and small groups looking for a simple, well-located stay: it’s no coincidence that couples have rated the location 9.5. The rooms, all around 16 square metres, have a private bathroom with bidet, air conditioning, flat-screen TV and a coffee machine; some also offer a view of the surrounding area.
An Italian breakfast is served every morning, while general services include luggage storage, a paid airport shuttle and a lift. The area, full of bars and restaurants just steps from the entrance, is well suited to a stay explored on foot among the Vatican Museums, Castel Sant’Angelo and the streets of the Aurelio district, with Rome’s historic centre reachable in a few minutes via the connections from the nearby Roma San Pietro station.
Gregory B&B Vatican offers three room types, all around 16 square metres and equipped with a private bathroom, air conditioning, flat-screen TV and a coffee machine, elements that ensure a good level of comfort regardless of the choice. Parquet flooring is a common feature across all rooms, as is attention to practical details of the stay, from courtesy sets to a kettle for tea and coffee.
The main difference lies in capacity and bed configuration: the Standard Double/Twin Room is designed for two people, while the Triple Room with External Private Bathroom and the Superior Triple Room accommodate up to three guests, with the possibility of adding a child in the former. Those looking for a view of the surroundings will find this feature in the two triple rooms, while those who prefer simplicity can opt for the double room.
This is the most compact solution for two people, designed for couples travelling without the need for extra space. The parquet flooring, air conditioning and en-suite bathroom make it functional, while the in-room coffee machine allows for a comfortable start to the day before heading out to the Vatican.
Compared to the double room, this triple accommodates up to three guests and also allows for a child, making it suitable for small families. The bathroom, although private, is located outside the room; it features a shower, bidet, hairdryer and complimentary toiletries, as well as a wardrobe for storing luggage during the stay.
This is the superior version of the triple room, with an en-suite private bathroom complete with shower, bidet and courtesy set, unlike the other triple which has an external bathroom. It also offers a view of the surroundings and a wardrobe for organising personal belongings during the stay in Rome.
Gregory B&B Vatican offers free WiFi throughout the property, air conditioning and non-smoking rooms, features appreciated by those looking for a practical stay near the Vatican.

The property also has a lift and parquet or wood flooring throughout the common areas.
Each room is equipped with a private bathroom with bidet, shower or bathtub, hairdryer and complimentary toiletries, as well as a fridge, coffee machine and electric kettle for tea. Italian breakfast can be requested directly in the room, a convenient service for those who prefer not to go down to the common areas in the morning.
Dining services also include a kettle for tea and a coffee machine available on request, while the room has an electrical outlet near the bed, a practical detail for those travelling with electronic devices to charge overnight.
