Top Vatican City Hotel Reviews

Hotel Artemide

8/10 Good

"The location was good. Breakfast was good. The room was clean and spacious. The welcome drink was good. The staffs were helpful. The only negative was that they did not tell us that the car service to the airport was cash only."

Hotel Isola Sacra Rome Airport

8/10 Good

"Hotel was amazingly clean, desk staff helpful at check-in. Room was clean and spacious. Only problem was when we arrived we had to take a taxi instead of the planned hotel shuttle from the airport. Having watched the YouTube video on where to meet the hotel shuttle, we arrived in plenty of time to catch the last shuttle of the night. My sister and I stood outside, along the blue metal fence area, door 4 waiting for the shuttle to arrive, only to see it whizzing by along a different lane, no where near the hotel shuttle area. The taxi line was well coordinate and a ride was arranged. Only disconcerting issue was the taxi driver did not have his meter running, on the dash or rear view mirror as all other taxis encountered during our Rome vacation. We arrived at the hotel after a very short ride, charged 45 euros ($50+USD) pretty steep, no receipt given. Seemed shady."

Hotel Quirinale

8/10 Good

"Super clean, great location, large rooms, and bathroom. Very clean. most of the front desk was very nice and helpful. They only supplied one bottle of water per guest for the entire stay, which is ridiculous. A bottle of water cost about $.25 and I felt that there should’ve been a fresh one in the refrigerator each morning. The buffet was the same every day and all in all pretty good. We did not eat in the restaurant otherwise but the setting was lovely."

Trastevere Roma | UNA Esperienze | Preferred Hotels and Resorts

8/10 Good

"Our first time in Rome and glad we stayed here instead of city center. There are several restaurants and bars nearby and yet our room was quiet (which was much appreciated). Staff was helpful and rooftop bar was a nice touch for apertivo or night cap. Hotel smells lovely too Would stay again! Minor inconvenience: parking but we were directed to nearest parking garage. We tried to order room service two days in advance row but they never brought us the card to order in advance even when we went to the front desk to ask for one. Our room faxed the courtyard which I would’ve changed if we stayed more than our 2 nights bc I’m claustrophobic but it worked well for the quiet."
