Maison Maneli is a guest house in the Prati district of Rome, 500 metres from Lepanto Metro Station and 650 metres from the Vatican Museums. The property is entirely non-smoking and offers a garden, a common room and free WiFi throughout.
The rooms, all air-conditioned and soundproofed, are designed for stays as a couple or in small groups: they feature a private bathroom with shower, bidet, courtesy set and hairdryer, as well as a flat-screen TV, desk, wardrobe, safe and fridge. Many units enjoy views of the inner garden or the property’s courtyard.
Italian breakfast, also available as a takeaway, is served every morning. The location in Vaticano Prati allows guests to reach Castel Sant’Angelo, St. Peter’s Square and Piazza del Popolo on foot, while couples particularly praise the comfort of the beds and the location score, among the highest recorded by the property. A suitable address for those visiting Rome who prefer the Vatican area over the more touristy historic centre.
Maison Maneli offers six room types, all ranging between 14 and 20 square metres, designed mainly for couples but also available in a triple version for those travelling in three. Each room is air-conditioned, soundproofed and equipped with a private bathroom with shower, bidet, courtesy set and hairdryer, as well as a flat-screen TV, wardrobe, safe and fridge. A view of the inner garden or the courtyard is a recurring feature in almost all the rooms.
The main differences concern the size and the bed configuration: from the more compact 14 sqm Deluxe Double Room to the 18 sqm version with the same name, up to the 20 sqm Deluxe Triple Room designed for three people and the Deluxe King Room with an extra-large double bed. An intermediate 15 sqm option can accommodate up to two adults with a flexible bed configuration, adapting to different space and budget needs.

Compared to the 14 sqm Deluxe, this 15 sqm version offers a more flexible bed configuration, with two single beds in addition to the extra-large double bed, useful for those wanting more freedom in their sleeping arrangements. Private bathroom with shower, bidet and garden view complete the amenities.
At 18 sqm, this is the largest of the property’s standard double rooms, exceeding the base version by 4 sqm. Private bathroom with shower, hairdryer and courtesy set, air conditioning and a view of the inner garden.

Maison Maneli is located in the Prati district, one of the most elegant residential areas of north-western Rome, appreciated for its orderly streets, neighbourhood shops and proximity to the Vatican. The setting is quiet yet lively, with bars and restaurants just steps from the property, such as the nearby Alice Pizza only 50 metres away and several cafés within 500 metres.

Roma San Pietro Railway Station is 1.5 km away, useful for those arriving by train. Rome’s airports are further away: Ciampino at 15 km and Fiumicino at 17 km, both reachable by shuttle or taxi.
Just steps away are the Vatican Museums (650 metres) and St. Peter’s Square (700 metres), a must-visit destination for anyone visiting Rome regardless of the season.
