Guest House Relais Indipendenza is a guest house in the Termini district of Rome, about a 5-minute walk from Roma Termini Railway Station and just steps from La Sapienza University.
The property offers six room types, from the more compact Economy and Budget options to Triple rooms designed for small groups or families, all with private bathroom, air conditioning, flat-screen TV and tea and coffee making facilities. Several rooms offer views of the inner garden or the city rooftops, a detail that helps distinguish the available room types while keeping a simple, functional style throughout the building.
General services include luggage storage, a tour desk, laundry and ironing services, and an airport shuttle, useful for those arriving from or departing to Fiumicino or Ciampino. Pets are allowed free of charge upon request, a notable advantage for those travelling with their dog or cat. As there is no lift, guests with reduced mobility or heavy luggage should take this into account. The location just steps from Castro Pretorio metro station makes it convenient to visit the main monuments of Rome’s historic centre.
The six room types at Guest House Relais Indipendenza share some basic features: private bathroom with toiletries and hairdryer, air conditioning, flat-screen TV and a tea and coffee maker or set, plus free WiFi throughout the property. Room sizes range from 12 sqm for the Economy Double Room to 18 sqm for the larger options designed for three people.
What sets the rooms apart is mainly the view, alternating between glimpses of the inner garden and views over the city rooftops, and the bed configuration, often flexible between a double bed and single beds to suit couples, groups of friends or small families. The Triple rooms add a dining area and a lounge area, while the Double/Twin Room offers the greatest flexibility to choose between a double or twin setup, while still remaining among the larger room sizes at the property.
The most compact of the double room options, at 15 sqm and overlooking the property’s inner garden and courtyard. Designed as a budget option, it still offers a private bathroom with shower, LCD TV, free WiFi and a coffee maker in the room.
Designed for groups or families of up to three people, this 18 sqm room has a private bathroom located outside the room, complete with bidet and toiletries. Unlike the double rooms, it features a separate dining area and lounge area, with city views.
The smallest room at the property, at 12 sqm with views of the inner garden. It’s the coziest of the double rooms, with a private bathroom fitted with shower and toiletries, plus a dining area despite its compact size.
Among the 18 sqm rooms, this one offers the greatest flexibility, convertible from a double to a twin configuration depending on guests’ needs. It overlooks the city and includes a lounge area and tea and coffee making facilities.
The property’s second triple room, identical to the previous one in size and bed configuration, but located in a different wing of the building overlooking the surrounding rooftops. Private external bathroom with shower and bidet, lounge area and dining area.
Guest House Relais Indipendenza offers free WiFi throughout the property, air conditioning and non-smoking rooms, while pets are allowed free of charge upon request. Practical services include luggage storage, a tour desk and an airport shuttle, useful for those arriving from or departing to Fiumicino and Ciampino airports.
For longer stays, laundry, dry cleaning and ironing services are available, along with fax and photocopying facilities for work needs. Common areas include a TV lounge, a vending machine and an on-site mini-market.
Each room has a private bathroom with free toiletries, hairdryer and bed linen, as well as tea and coffee making facilities, a fridge and a lounge area. Please note that the building has no lift, so upper floors are only accessible via stairs.
Guest House Relais Indipendenza is located in the Termini district, a central and busy area of Rome where residential buildings, small venues and businesses coexist, just steps from La Sapienza University and the Ministry of the Treasury. The street is quiet despite its proximity to the station, with restaurants and bars just metres from the entrance, such as the nearby Camoscio d’Abruzzo just 10 metres away.
Roma Termini Station is about 450 metres away, while Castro Pretorio metro station, on line B, is 250 metres away and Termini metro station is 400 metres away: from here, both the Vatican and Piazza di Spagna can be reached in just a few stops.

Villa Borghese, 1.2 km away, is the ideal choice for a walk in nature or to visit the Borghese Gallery.
