Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We stayed 3 nights and the staff was very accommodating to us and arranged transportation for us on 4 occasions. They left plenty of information on a table in our room. I did not notice that we were provided a free bottle of sparkling wine until I read the information on the 3rd day. We enjoyed it that night! I highly recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to stay near the Vatican. It is a short walk to a nearby metro station, as well. The staff were all friendly and professional.

Great price and stay for the busy area

It is like an apartment building with a receptionist on each floor who buzzes you in. The Filipina ladies are nice. The room is clean. Probably needs new beds considering the heavy traffic for the Vatican all year long. We parked at a paid garage down the street. The room was reasonably priced.

The hotel is situated on a side street about 10 minutes walk from the Vatican. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was a no frills continental type but plentiful enough. Rooms were functional and had a balcony with a small table and chairs which was a bonus. Overall ideal for our needs

What was unique was it was the most expensive hotel room of our trip, but we were treated worse there than any other hotel. The room was not ready at the time that was advertised, so we had to wait elsewherw an hour although we were exhausted from trip. Hotel would not give us option for breakfast. Receptionist was unfriendly, unaccommodating & very controlling.

This property is a guest house in a Condo where 2 floors have rooms that belong to Vatican Relais Rome. It does not look like a hotel entrance but a Condo therefore you have to look at door buttons to access the Guest rooms. Rooms are super clean, small, and are serviced everyday. All rooms have a small balcony cute to bring breakfast and eat there. No coffee pot or access to hot water in rooms or a microwave. Breakfast is 7 euros additional fee per person, every morn from 7:30-10:00. Not much a variety but ok for the price. Most of the day there is no access to personal on the front desk but are friendly if and when you are lucky to find staff. Vince was the only one we were ever able to find and he was great and always helpful. Customer service is lacking. The plus, its 7 minutes to Vatican and taxi stop. Many restaurants close by too. Good for a couple but not a family and for a short stay. If you are accustomed to hotel environment, amenities, and hotel front desk service, this place is not for you. Overall a clean place to sleep at the end of the day.

It was small, the people were nice. Clogged drain with a bird's nest of hair that I had to remove after "room cleaning". Makes me wonder if they cleaned the shower. Breakfast was fair. Location was good, they called a cab for us and did let us set bags up there due to early arrival. Overall medium.

Vatican Relais Rome delivered on all fronts. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcome and well-informed thanks to proactive and thoughtful communication. The room was immaculate, charming, and quiet—perfect for a restful night after a day exploring the city. And what a location! We could stroll to the Vatican in just a few minutes and also access the metro and nearby shops with ease. Every detail—from the amenities to the value offered—was cohesive, and I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
