Hosianum Palace is a 3-star guest house in the heart of Rome, created from the restoration of a 16th-century palazzo just steps from the Roman Forum and the Pantheon.
The rooms, spread across several floors of the historic building, combine period features with modern furnishings: all have air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, minibar and private bathroom with hairdryer, with options ranging from the economy single to the quadruple room for families or small groups. Guests can relax in the common lounge, use the internet point in the lobby, or enjoy views over the city’s rooftops from the panoramic terrace, where drinks and snacks are also served in summer.
Breakfast, served in the morning, offers both a classic coffee and croissant and a hot and cold buffet. The location, rated 9.7 by guests, puts Largo di Torre Argentina, the Capitoline Museums and Piazza Venezia within walking distance, while the Colosseo and Cavour metro stations are about one kilometre away. A good choice for those who want to experience Rome’s historic centre without giving up essential comfort and services.
Hosianum Palace offers seven room types, from the 10 sqm Economy Single designed for solo travellers to the 30 sqm Quadruple Room suited to families or small groups.

Hosianum Palace is located in the Pantheon district, right in Rome’s historic centre, on the small Via dei Polacchi just steps from Largo di Torre Argentina. The area, almost entirely pedestrianised, is a maze of alleys, baroque churches and Renaissance palazzi, with restaurants and bars open until late: Bibliothè restaurant is just 40 metres away and Al Trentacinque bar 150 metres from the entrance.
Getting around without a car is easy: the Colosseo metro station is 1.1 km away and Cavour 1.2 km away, while Termini station, a hub for trains and buses, is about 2 km away. Those arriving by plane can rely on Ciampino Airport, 13 km away, or Fiumicino, 18 km away, both connected to the centre by shuttle and train. The Pantheon and Piazza Navona, about 600 metres away, are easily reached on foot in around ten minutes.
The city’s main attractions are all within walking distance: the Capitoline Museums are 350 metres away, the Colosseum about 1.3 km, and the Trevi Fountain 750 metres, while Campo de’ Fiori, especially lively in the evening, is 550 metres away. In summer, the hotel’s panoramic terrace becomes an ideal spot for an aperitif with views over the city’s rooftops, while in winter the historic centre offers a quieter atmosphere, perfect for visiting museums and churches without the queues of high season.
