Residenza Romana is a family-run bed and breakfast in the Villa Borghese/Parioli district of Rome, about 300 metres from Piazza del Popolo and 250 metres from Flaminio Metro Station.
The property offers a limited number of suites with independent entrance, designed for families and small groups looking for more space than a traditional hotel room. Each accommodation is air-conditioned and equipped with a private bathroom with bidet, flat-screen TV, minibar, coffee machine and tea set, as well as parquet floors and a living area separate from the sleeping area. Some suites overlook the inner garden, others the rooftops of the district.
Breakfast, served Italian style, is included in the stay and is one of the aspects most appreciated by guests, together with the staff service. The location allows guests to reach Piazza di Spagna, the Trevi Fountain and Villa Borghese on foot, while still staying in a quiet residential area of the capital, away from the traffic of the more central districts.
The three room types at Residenza Romana are actually suites with independent entrance, all featuring a living room separate from the bedroom, air conditioning, private bathroom with shower and bidet, flat-screen TV, minibar and tea and coffee making facilities. The parquet floors and the presence of a living area set these accommodations apart from classic hotel rooms, making them suitable for longer stays or small groups.
The Queen Suite and the Standard Suite share the same layout with a sofa bed in the living room and a view of the inner garden, but differ in size, 40 and 25 square metres respectively. The Two-Bedroom Suite, on the other hand, is designed for larger families, with two separate double bedrooms and a balcony overlooking the city, for up to four guests.
At 40 square metres, this is one of the largest suites in the property. The independent entrance leads to a living room with a sofa bed and seating area, separate from the double bedroom with private bathroom and bidet. The view opens onto both the inner garden and the city rooftops, a dual outlook that no other room type offers.
The only room type with two separate double bedrooms, ideal for families or two couples travelling together who want privacy from each other. The private bathroom is connected to one of the two rooms, while the balcony overlooking the city sets this suite apart from the others, which have no outdoor space.
This is the most compact option in the property, at 25 square metres compared to the 40 of the other two suites, but it still features an independent entrance and a balcony with a dual view of the garden and the city. Suitable for couples or small families of up to three, with separate living room and bedroom.
Residenza Romana offers accommodations designed for those seeking more independence than a traditional hotel room: each suite has an independent entrance, air conditioning and parquet floors, plus amenities such as a wardrobe, desk and electrical outlet near the bed. The bathroom lacks nothing, from bidet to bathrobe, from free toiletries to hairdryer.
On the dining side, Italian breakfast is the most mentioned service by guests, but it’s also possible to request breakfast in the room, menus for special diets and minibar service with wine and champagne. Each suite also has a coffee machine and a kettle for tea.
Among the general services are luggage storage, lockers, daily housekeeping and private check-in and check-out, useful for those arriving with flexible schedules. The property also organises cooking classes, walking and cycling tours, and themed evenings for guests who want to experience Rome from a more local perspective.
Residenza Romana is located in the Villa Borghese/Parioli district, a green residential area north of Rome’s historic centre, just a short walk from Piazzale Flaminio. The neighbourhood combines period buildings with small local spots such as Crazy Bar and Bar Lavi, both about 100 metres away, as well as restaurants like Triplo and Flambar, 50 metres from the property.
Flaminio Metro Station is 250 metres away, while Lepanto Metro Station is 650 metres away: from there, Piazza di Spagna and the Trevi Fountain can be reached in a few minutes, at 1.1 and 1.6 km respectively. Flaminio railway station is just 200 metres away, convenient for those arriving from the northern outskirts. Rome’s airports are further away: Ciampino is about 14-17 km away, Fiumicino 18 km, both reachable by shuttle or train.
On foot, in just a few minutes, you can reach Piazza del Popolo (300 m) and the entrance to Villa Borghese (1.6 km), the large city park ideal for a stroll or a visit to the Borghese Gallery. Museum lovers can reach the Vatican Museums and St. Peter’s Square in about 1.8 km, while summer evenings are perfect for a drink towards Piazza Navona or Campo de’ Fiori, both within 2 km. In winter, the area still stays lively thanks to the venues around the Pincio and near Piazzale Flaminio.
