Scipioni 235 Luxury Suite is a guest house in the Prati district of Rome, 600 metres from Ottaviano metro station and about 1.1 km from the Vatican Museums, in the heart of the area surrounding the Vatican.
The property offers four types of air-conditioned rooms, all with independent entrance, soundproofed walls, minibar and private bathroom: from the 30 sqm King Deluxe Room with a hydromassage tub, to the King Room, along with the two Queen Rooms, Superior and Deluxe, both 25 sqm. Every room is equipped with a flat-screen TV, coffee machine, courtesy set and bed linen.
The location in the Prati district is one of its most appreciated strengths: a few steps away you’ll find cafés such as Epifani Café and restaurants such as San Valentino Rome, while St. Peter’s Square, Castel Sant’Angelo and the Vatican can be reached on foot in just a few minutes. Lepanto metro station, only 150 metres away, quickly connects to the rest of the city. A great fit for those seeking a refined stay well connected to Rome’s historic centre.
The four room types at Scipioni 235 Luxury Suite share a common set of amenities designed for comfort: air conditioning, soundproofed walls, independent entrance, minibar, coffee machine, flat-screen TV and private bathroom with courtesy set, shower or tub, bidet and hairdryer. Room sizes range from 25 to 30 sqm, with a maximum capacity of two guests per room, making them ideal for couples or solo travellers seeking privacy and quiet.
What sets the rooms apart are mainly the premium details: the King Deluxe Room, the largest at 30 sqm, stands out for its hydromassage bathtub, the only one of its kind in the property. The other three rooms, though similar in size, feature extra-large or large double beds and slight variations in furnishings, allowing guests to choose based on their own style and space preferences.
The largest room in the property, at 30 sqm, and the only one with a hydromassage bathtub, the true distinctive feature of this room. It offers air conditioning, independent entrance, soundproofed walls, minibar and coffee machine, and a private bathroom with separate tub and shower. Perfect for those seeking a more spacious stay with an extra touch of relaxation.
A 25 sqm double room with a private bathroom featuring a shower, bidet, hairdryer and courtesy set. Compared to the Deluxe, it does without the hydromassage tub, but still includes an independent entrance, soundproofed walls and minibar, making it a more essential yet still comfortable choice.
Very similar to the Queen Superior in size and its large double bed, this 25 sqm room differs in its furnishings and its private bathroom with shower, hairdryer and bidet, paired with a dedicated courtesy set. A balanced option between space and everyday comfort.
Although smaller at 25 sqm than the King Deluxe, this room offers the same extra-large double bed, making it a solid, more compact alternative. A private bathroom with shower, bidet, hairdryer and courtesy set completes the room, along with an independent entrance and soundproofed walls.
