It is a small, very quiet residence with a special private, christian charm. Rescued in the Vatikan, with a direct view of the basilica San Pietro, the angelus prayer from the room from tracing, you feel the heart of christianity. The breakfast enough however also nothing more. Very weak and as often also completely is overpriced the wifi. Here must sometimes be improved. read more

    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.

    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.

    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.

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 ... German speaking front desk. Breakfast offers everything that your heart could desire. We have absolutely nothing can find, which we didn't like. 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

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

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. So a big ... thank you at Sabrina and your team, and we hope to soon. read more

The hotel lies directly next to the Peter cathedral. There is a roof terrace with a view of the dome of the Peter cathedral! The frontdesk employees spoke mostly German and are all exceptionally friendly. The rooms are not very big, also the bathroom is small, but it is everything you need is available ( Gear are available). There is in the room a safe and also a mini bar. Great hotel! read more

    From some rooms one has direct view of Saint Peter's square and Saint Peter's Basilica. About 10 minutes walk to the subway. 500 meters footpath the Tiber and Angel castle. Since we run gladly, we are from the hotel on foot to the city center gone.

With the Residenza Paolo VI acts it around a small hotel with 26 rooms and very personal atmosphere. The rooms are somewhat small guessed/advised, but very comfortable and cleanly. The breakfast is not sumptuous for a hotel of this class, but appropriate. The guests are usually older and come to a good part from Germany. The hotel is very calm and offers an oasis of the peace in hectic and loud Rome. read more

    Our room, a so-called Triple Room with two bedrooms and bath, was rather small, but appropriately, wertig and comfortably furnished. The room was in a good condition and was equipped with television, mini bar, safe, telephone and perfectly functioning air conditioning system. In the room it was very calm with closed window - the sleep accordingly relaxing.

    Beside the appropriate breakfast one should do without the remaining meals of the house. Essentially only small one of snack is offered, which do not inspire. However the bar service on the terrace is recommendable.

    Service and friendliness of the staff are outstanding. In addition throughout good to very good knowledge of the German language come. The rooms always were not clean and offered any cause for the complaint. Also additional achievements like e.g. laundry function perfectly. Only small who courage drop: The service on the beautiful terrace takes place only from 16.00 to 24,00 o'clock. Who rests at noon in the hotel, must fall back to the mini bar.

    Only a road separates the hotel from the Peter place. This is a large advantage for visitors, who concentrate on the Vatikan, however is the city center with the other substantial objects of interest of Rome a good foot march distant. The catering trade in the proximity of the hotel is aligned to mass tourism - who would like to eat thus well and typically Roman, should at larger distance of the hotel search.

A hotel with flair and beautiful prospect directly been because of the Vatikan. The hotel possesses about 26 rooms in different categories of the room equipment. We had decided for the simple variant of the French room with Frühstücksbuffet. Which for two persons is quite sufficient. With older hotel guests I recommend however then rather the more elevated variant where the beds am better accessible. To cleanliness we say only the rooms were cleanly cleared up to great and each morning. Linguistic problems did not arise, since in the hotel also English and German one speaks. The age structure lay ... at our time between about 25-70 years. read more

    Size of the room about 18-20 square meter, could have stood however a second chair. Equipped with air conditioning system, TV, mini bar, safe, telephone and bath. In the bath with shower. Very clean condition although the house is older and in former times to a monastery part belonged. But which is in Rome not old and one would like to also experience that. At least it was with us like that.

    The situation of the hotel was almost ideal for us, since the attendance of the Peter cathedral was extremely important to us. One could see from the terrace directly on the Vatikan, particularly in the evening very already and romantically. For the city we had us a 3. Meet to ticket bought, so that we could use thereby the penalty and underground. To recommend much. Better however probably still Rome is ticket.
