Courteous, friendly, fond, still always cooperative, very eloquent in languages and competent. My amendment the travel was during the night edit, as we off-season arrived, were our expectations by far exceeded.The building offers a small menu of simple dishes in the style of an italian bar. Also here, you could enjoy on the terraces the special view. Otherwise everything is clean and the house ago art modest but not cheap materials.The rooms are small, a little worn, but clean. The rooms are not all rooms the standard. In the renovated bathrooms feel but very comfortable.It is a small, very quiet … read more

Location: to the Peter place there is 50 steps. In 15 minutes you can reach on foot the center with great shopping Streets. Engelsburg in 10 minutes on foot away. Who go with the bus would like to, the bus stops are directly at the Peter place. All other objectives are here by bus reachable. Tours with audioguide and hop-off so often and so long you want. Buses go in 30 to 60 minutes tact. ( tact are partly with 15 minutes, but we never experienced :-) ) hotel: very clean rooms, daily change of towels. Friendly, helpful staff and … read more

The hotel ( room in a former monastery, and thus partly very small - a chair and a small desk- ) Location is great close to the Peter place (just across a lateral road) and makes us with its access to the center since several years really fun for back. Nightly cocktail on the small roof garden terrace is also a relaxation after Rome's notorious hikes. … read more

About the hotel and the staff you can only very positive. The roof terrace with a view of the Peter cathedral absolutely exclusive (in the location) and beautiful. Recommendable! Small tip to all travelers never try in the morning in the Peter cathedral come! The line about 1 kilometer around the square and waiting time around 1 to 2 hours crazy. By the location of the hotel you can completely relaxed in the evening cIRCA around 17. H without waiting time in the Peter cathedral again. Don't know many-that most all in the morning again. … read more

This hotel is for a city break the ideal starting point. Directly at the Peter cathedral can be reached even on foot all sights within short time. The hotel is clean the staff very friendly. The chronic naggers in the portal, the breakfast is for Italian standards more than enough and around the size of the rooms will never a secret. ( whoever can read is here really far the front). We had great days here, directly over the hotel booked extras, such as pick-up from the airport and flowers in the room, spot via e-mail smoothly. … read more
