Walker Rooms is a guest house in Rome, in the Esquilino district, about 600 metres from the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore and just as close to Roma Termini station. The property occupies the fifth floor of a building on Via Filippo Turati and is aimed at those looking for a practical base to get around the city, whether by train or on foot towards the monuments of the historic centre.
The rooms, all with city views, share amenities such as air conditioning, flat-screen TV with satellite channels, refrigerator, coffee machine, private bathroom with shower and toiletries. Room types vary in size, from compact options designed for a single traveller to larger rooms suitable for small groups or families.
The location allows guests to reach the National Roman Museum, Porta Maggiore and the Domus Aurea on foot, while the Colosseum is about 1.6 km away. The Vittorio Emanuele and Termini metro stations are both a few minutes away, making the property convenient for those arriving or departing by train from the city’s main station.
Walker Rooms offers eleven room types, all with city views and air conditioning, designed to suit different needs: from the solo traveller to couples, up to small groups needing more space. Every accommodation includes a private bathroom with a walk-in shower, hair dryer, toiletries, flat-screen TV with satellite channels, coffee machine and refrigerator, ensuring an independent stay even for short periods near the station.
The main differences concern the size, ranging from the 9 square metres of the Small Double Room to the 18 of the King Superior Room, and the bed type, which includes large double beds, a French double bed and a single bed in the smaller room. Some rooms, such as the King Superior, also offer a wardrobe and safe, while the Single Room with Private Bathroom is designed for solo travellers who still want an independent space with parquet flooring.
The King Superior is among the largest rooms in the property, with 18 sqm and capacity for up to three people. It features a wardrobe, safe and tea/coffee set in addition to the common amenities, with a walk-in shower and city views.
Designed for two people, this Superior offers 14 sqm with a walk-in shower and city views, a more compact format compared to the King Superior but with the same climate and technology features.
Another variant of the King Superior at 18 sqm, with capacity for three guests, wardrobe, safe and city views: suitable for those seeking more space without giving up the basic comforts.
At 16 sqm, this Superior Double Room sits between the 14 sqm version and the larger option in the range, still offering city views, a walk-in shower and a tea/coffee set.
The smallest room in the property, 9 sqm designed for a single guest, with a French double bed, city views and the essential amenities for a short, practical stay.
An 18 sqm variant of the Superior Double Room, with capacity for up to three people, wardrobe, safe and city views: the most spacious among the Superior Double Rooms in the property.
Simply called the Double Room, this 16 sqm room offers the property’s standard amenities without the extras of the Superior line, making it a more essential choice for two people.
The only room in the property with a single bed, designed for solo travellers: 10 sqm with parquet flooring, city views and an independent private bathroom with a walk-in shower.
Walker Rooms offers a package of services geared towards practicality for those getting around the city: free WiFi throughout the property, private and express check-in and check-out, luggage storage and a tour desk to organise visits and transfers. Daily housekeeping and key access help make the stay independent, while vending machines for snacks and drinks are available for more immediate needs.
The property is entirely non-smoking and has a lift, a useful detail given it is located on the fifth floor of the building. Parquet or wood flooring and heating complete the common areas.
Rooms feature a private bathroom with shower, complimentary toiletries, hair dryer, refrigerator, coffee machine and electric kettle, as well as a desk and city views in every room. Breakfast is not included in the property’s offer.
