Refined bed and breakfast between Piazza del Popolo and Piazza di Spagna, with air-conditioned rooms, some with a jacuzzi bathtub, in the historic heart of Rome.

Room types

The rooms at Penna Relais al Corso all feature air conditioning, a private bathroom with courtesy set and walk-in shower, flat-screen TV and private entrance, with sizes ranging from 19 to 25 square metres. The range includes two double rooms designed for two people and two triple rooms that can accommodate up to three guests, also suitable for families with children thanks to the availability of a high chair.

What sets the larger room types apart, the Luxury Triple and the Executive Triple, is the jacuzzi bathtub and the city view, a detail that makes them suitable for those looking for a stay with an extra touch of relaxation. The Double rooms, more compact, look instead onto the building’s inner courtyard and remain the most suitable choice for couples visiting Rome.
