All units are air conditioned and feature a flat-screen TV, minibar and private bathroom, while some offer views of the city or the inner courtyard and, in the case of the Junior Suite with Balcony, also an outdoor view.

Free WiFi is available in all areas, and the superior rooms add courtesy sets and streaming services. Breakfast, when requested, offers Italian, English/Irish and American options.

Location & what to see

The Passepartout is located on Via del Governo Vecchio, in the heart of the Piazza Navona district, one of the most authentic areas of Rome’s historic centre. The cobbled streets are lined with Renaissance buildings, artisan workshops and historic venues such as the Da Baffetto pizzeria, just metres from the entrance, and the Madame Gu restaurant, virtually on the doorstep. Piazza Navona is right outside the property, while Palazzo Braschi and Palazzo Massimo, both protected historic sites, are reached with a walk of about 300 metres.

Those arriving by air will find Ciampino Airport about 13 km away and Fiumicino Airport 18 km away; Roma San Pietro railway station, on the other hand, is just 1.3 km away, convenient for those travelling by train. The Spagna and Lepanto metro stations are both about 1.5 km away, useful for reaching other parts of the city without needing a car. On foot, in just over ten minutes you can reach Castel Sant’Angelo (500 m) and Campo de’ Fiori (300 m), with its morning market and lively bars.

For evening outings, the venues around Governo Vecchio offer aperitifs and live music, while during the day it’s worth exploring smaller museums such as Palazzo Venezia (900 m) or taking walks along the Tiber towards Trastevere, less than a kilometre away. In summer, evenings stretch on at the area’s outdoor bars, while in winter the proximity to Piazza Navona brings the lights of the Christmas market right to your doorstep.
