Manfredi House San Pietro is located in the Vaticano Prati district, an elegant residential area just steps from the Leonine Walls and the Vatican Gardens, where shops, historic cafés and neighbourhood eateries coexist, such as the nearby Habemus Café at 150 metres. It is an area lived in more by Romans than by passing tourists, despite its absolute proximity to the city’s spiritual centre.
The Vatican Museums are about 200 metres away, St. Peter’s Square 350 metres and Castel Sant’Angelo less than a kilometre, all distances comfortably walkable. Ottaviano metro station, on line A, is 350 metres away and connects directly to Termini in six stops; Roma San Pietro railway station is about 1.1 km away. Those arriving by plane will find Fiumicino airport 17 km away and Ciampino airport 15 km away.
The area is well suited to both cultural tourism and more relaxed walks: besides the Vatican Museums, Piazza Navona at 850 metres and the Trevi Fountain at about 2.3 km are worth a visit, both reachable on foot in about half an hour’s walk through the alleys of the historic centre. In spring and autumn the district fills with tourists heading to the Basilica, while in the early morning hours it remains a good starting point for visiting the Vatican Museums while avoiding the longest queues.
