Horrible experience

I booked this hotel for my first time in Rome, My experience was terrible. There’s no front desk. To find the property was a nightmare. The bathroom smelled terrible. Delayed response from the person who was in charge. I asked for a few more minutes in the room since I have a 15 months old baby but the lady didn’t seem to care. Never found out from the property manager if we can stay. My flight time had changed so I had to leave my luggage in the lobby so I can go have breakfast with my family risking someone stealing my valuables. Keep Me in mind there’s an extra cleaning fee when you get there Ull be charged for. The only good thing is that it was close to the Vatican.

The host that meet us tried to hustle us for full payment at regular price 370 Euros + 36 Euros per night in cash. She insisted on 36 Euros city tax that had to be paid in cash, or I was asked to leave. When mentioning Expedia, she didn't want to hear it. She just snubbed it and ignored my pre-paid rate. Claimed to send me a receipt by email for the 36 Euros in cash I paid. Never Received It! Not Surprising. Stay Away! This place is a Scam!

The bathroom is not very clean and the room condition is pretty worn out. Shower head is almost broken. Different from the picture. Convenient location but please expect noisy outside. Friendly staff at check in but no breakfast as mentioned in the site.

centric place

The place is near to the Vatican, and near to stores and restaurants, I do not have a phone, and the only communication with the personnel was with emails, ( they do not has front desk and the cleaning personnel are there only in the mornings; we stayed for 4 nights and they do not left toilet paper and soap for us... we need to buy them.

Good budget accomodations

No staff usually on site so it can be a challenge checking in, but we didn't have any problems (other people we ran into did, however). The area is awesome, close to metro, bus and tram and lots of restaurants and shops in the area. Walking distance to the Vatican. The rooms are clean, but definitely could use a little TLC as they require paint and a little maintenance. But the beds were comfortable and the staff were very willing to help out. Good budget accommodations - not a hotel, more like a flat or apartment. Wifi worked well.

Top spot.

The room was the best I've ever had in a"cheap" hostel. Spacious, comfortable and clean - the room was furnished better than some more expensive places I've stayed in. Enjoyed very much.

Convenient!!

Well, this is my second time staying in Vatican City Guest House. Very friendly staffs with multi-lingual capability. It is very near to Metro station (20-30 metres) and St.Peter's Sq. (about 1km). Shopping areas are just within walking distance. I'd say the hotel loacted in a very convenient area for almost everything. Hope to book them again for next trip!!

Vatican City Guest House

An amazing few days. Vatican City Guest House is excellent value for money and very clean. Only issue - the bed needs a new mattress! A suggestion: access to a kettle in the kitchen would have been good - even if there had to be a slight increase in the tariff.

Excellent hotel

Excellent service and lovely accommodation very easy 5 minute walk to the Vatican. Extremely clean and breakfast was always delivered at the time requested. If we go back to Rome this is the place I would stay at again. Easy access to public transport. You can also walk about 15 minutes and get a public shuttle bus to and from the airport.

not impressed

Convenient to trains. Rooms were clean. Staff was friendly. Cash only, no credit cards accepted. No drinking water in room, you must bring your own. No soap in bathroom, bring your own. Difficult to locate. It is basically one apartment in an old building and the only sign you will find is by the calling button, which you must look carefully to find. No office on the premises, you must call in advance to find someone at the door. Breakfast is a coupon for coffee and croissant at a nearby cafe. Checkout time is 10am, too early for most folks. The charge is 5 euros if you stay even an hour over.

Will definitely come back!

Everything as I expected? Yes and no. The building is not a hotel, but a residential building, however 'Vatican City Guest House' is on the door buzzer. The lobby was looking pretty bad until we realized that they were starting to remodel it. The big surprise was when we walked into the small lobby leading to the rooms. Everything modern, clean, and extremely nice. Private bathroom very clean and modern, bed very comfortable, and the service was absolutely great. Just a few blocks from the Vatican and many great restaurants right around the corner. Oh, and right next door is a little store that has the best 1€ cup of coffee that you will ever have. Don't let the room's price fool you. This was the least expensive room that we stayed in while in Europe, but it was also the best.

Римские каникулы

Римские каникулы Проживние было комфортным и обсуживание ненавязчивым. Номер отеля чистый, просторный. Нас никто не встретил по указанному на сайте адресу. Мы кое как нашли номер телефона. Нам написали что с нашей бронью проблема и апартаменты заняты. Правда на улице не оставили. Направили по другому адресу неподалёку. Мы как то нашли и прождали часик. В общем всё обошлось. Отель понравился.

Om je veel moeite te besparen boek je dit hotel best NIET! Het hotel ligt vlak naast een luide weg en het is moeilijk te vinden. De naam van het hotel vind je nergens. Je kan maar bepaalde uren inchecken. Als je buiten deze uren zou inchecken moet je nog eens een toeslag betalen. Je hebt ook de kans dat ze je zelf niet meer willen inchecken als je buiten deze uren aanwezig bent. Wij hebben laten weten dat we later toekwamen zodat ze aanwezig zouden zijn. Na een uur in de regen te wachten rond 23u voor het hotel lieten ze ons weten dat we geen slaaplaats hadden voor die nacht omdat ze ons niet meer wilden inchecken. Dit hebben ze zeer onresctvol laten weten en hielpen ons hierna totaal niet meer verder. Slechtste hotel waar ik ooit mee te maken gekregen hebben en zeer onvriendelijke mensen.
