Sensation House

Sensation House is a bed and breakfast in the Nomentano district of Rome, just a short walk from Piazza Bologna Metro Station and Roma Tiburtina Railway Station. The property is designed for travellers who value practicality: a 24-hour front desk, luggage storage and a paid airport shuttle for those arriving from Ciampino or Fiumicino.

The rooms, compact in size and with private entrances, all feature a private bathroom with bidet, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a small kitchenette with microwave, toaster, coffee machine and electric kettle. Parquet floors and simple furnishings give the spaces a tidy, functional feel.

The location is one of the strengths highlighted by guests, particularly couples: La Sapienza University is about 2 km away, Termini Station is 2.6 km away, and there is no shortage of bars and restaurants nearby, such as Amazonia Sushi y Amor or Ba’ Ghetto. It is a convenient base for those who want to move easily towards the historic centre without giving up an authentic, lived-in neighbourhood.

Bed and breakfast in the Nomentano district of Rome, a short walk from Piazza Bologna metro station, with air-conditioned rooms and airport shuttle on request.

Room types

Sensation House offers two types of double room, both designed for a practical, independent stay in the heart of the Nomentano district. Each accommodation has a private bathroom with shower, bidet, hairdryer and toiletries, as well as air conditioning, a private entrance and parquet floors that give the spaces a tidy, well-kept look. There is also a small practical corner with a tea and coffee set, useful for breakfast or a break during the day.

The main difference between the two room types concerns size and capacity: the Standard is more compact and suited to couples, while the Superior offers a bit more space and can also accommodate families with children. In both cases, the flat-screen TV completes the amenities for a comfortable, worry-free stay.
