A convenient address for those visiting Rome with a focus on the Vatican area and the historic centre, without giving up quick connections to the rest of the city.

Sizes range from 12 sqm for the Small Double Room to 21 sqm for the Comfort Triple Room, the largest option and able to accommodate up to four people thanks to the additional sofa bed.
The Small Double Room looks onto the inner courtyard and is the most intimate and quiet choice, while the Double Room, at 14 sqm, and the Comfort Triple Room offer views over points of interest and the city, a detail not to be taken for granted in this area of Rome. None of the rooms accept extra beds beyond the set configurations, making the property better suited to couples or small, already-defined groups.
