Relais Manzoni is a 3-star hotel in Rome, set in a former convent between the Basilicas of San Giovanni in Laterano and Santa Croce in Gerusalemme, just 50 metres from the Manzoni metro station.
The interiors retain traces of the original building, with high vaulted ceilings and marble staircases leading guests to the rooms. Each room has individually controlled air conditioning and is equipped with a flat-screen TV with satellite and cable channels, a private bathroom with shower and hairdryer; some room types also add a terrace, balcony or view of the internal roof garden.
An Italian buffet breakfast is served in the morning, set up in the veranda with a garden view during the warmer months. The property offers free WiFi throughout and an internet point available 24 hours a day at the reception desk. The location, especially appreciated by couples, allows guests to reach the metro station on foot in just a few minutes and the Colosseum in about ten minutes, while Termini Station is 1.5 km away.
Relais Manzoni offers eight room types, all with a private bathroom, individually adjustable air conditioning, a flat-screen TV with cable channels and soundproofed walls. Room sizes range from 15 to 23 square metres, and bed options range from a single bed to a large double bed, up to solutions with an additional sofa bed for those travelling in larger groups.
Those looking for a private outdoor space can choose rooms with a terrace or balcony, while the room types with a garden view or internal courtyard view offer a more intimate outlook over the historic building. The King Deluxe Room, at 23 sqm, is the largest in the range and includes a sofa bed in addition to the extra-large double bed, ideal for families or small groups. All rooms also include a minibar and a tea and coffee making set.

Relais Manzoni is located in the neighbourhood behind Termini Station, between the Basilicas of San Giovanni in Laterano and Santa Croce in Gerusalemme, in a residential area rich in historic buildings such as Porta Maggiore and the Temple of Minerva Medica, both about 400 metres away. The neighbourhood retains a popular, multi-ethnic character, with trattorias, Asian restaurants and pizzerias just steps from the entrance.
The Manzoni metro station, on line A, is just 200 metres from the property, while the Vittorio Emanuele stop is 600 metres away: in just a few minutes guests can reach the historic centre and Termini Station, 1.5 km away. The Colosseum is about 1.3 km away, a 10-minute walk, and the Domus Aurea is 1.2 km away. Those arriving by air can rely on Rome Ciampino Airport, 11 km away, and Fiumicino, about 21 km away.
Continuing towards the centre, a 20-25 minute walk leads to the Trevi Fountain (2.4 km) and Piazza Venezia (2.3 km), ideal stops for a day dedicated to the historic centre. The neighbourhood also lends itself to quieter tourism, away from the main tourist flows: the Nicola Calipari Garden, 550 metres away, offers a green corner for a break, while the ruins of Porta Maggiore tell the story of the ancient Roman aqueduct system. In summer, evening walks towards the Colosseum and the Roman Forum remain one of the most popular activities for guests staying in the area.
