The location of your hotel was perfect, with everything we needed such as the metro, groceries, pharmacies, cafes and restaurants, all within a short walk. This made our stay much more convenient and enjoyable. Vatican City from hotel is 10 min by slow walk. Furthermore, we were impressed by the level of service provided by your reception staff, who were always polite, friendly, and eager to assist us with any queries or needs that we had. The cleaning service was also excellent, and our rooms were always clean and well-maintained.

This is an amazing boutique hotel right in the corner of Trastevere's heart. If you're looking for a stay at Rome that's close to the city historical center, but not in the buzz, then this is the choice for you. The staff was amazing with recommendations, and support on booking a private car, and even helping us find a tour we wanted to take. The breakfast was out of this world, probably the best we had in our whole trip to Italy, with so many options and all of them delicious. The rooms are very new and well-decorated. The shower is so good, and the beds very comfy.

Vatican Museums

The Vatican Museums are undoubtedly a must-visit. You’ll find these hallowed halls housed in the holy Vatican City. Perhaps that’s why the works here are of such a godly nature – expect true masterpieces (Ever heard of the Sistine Chapel?) and a beauty so supreme it can’t even be tainted by the crowds of trampling tourists.

So much, we took the guided tour, yes very informative, but skimmed so much to fit within the time allowed, massive crowds, next time maybe we will just get entry to take the experience slower. but worth the visit whichever way it is done I am sure.

Probably important to preface this with: I'm not an art person. But I thought we couldn't miss the masterpieces contained here. Turns out, we could have. We went during closing hours for "fewer crowds" but still the sistine chapel was an unpleasant experience. They really try to shove as many people as possible into the place and I was having none of it. Once you go through to the other side of the partition it's much more enjoyable as they won't be barking at you to shove in shove in. It was just not worth it for us, even with a guided tour so we knew what we were seeing.

I visited the Vatican Museum here, not the Vatican itself.

I visited the Vatican Museum here, not the Vatican itself. The Museum has much incredible art, and I booked a walking tour. By the end of the tour (two hours later), I was understandably tired. Most of what I can remember consists of dusty, half-lit rooms, which didn't help. I was glad to get some fresh air. Be aware that, being close to the Vatican and the Piazza S. Pietro, this neighbourhood is a magnet for junk sellers and scammers. Be extra careful here. The police will do nothing about them.

I've been several times before, but my husband had not, so we booked a group guided tour with Viator. I can say that the Catholic Church has RUINED the Vatican museum and the Sistine Chapel with their greed by shoving 25,000-45,000 people per DAY through there with very little time to see anything!! It was NEVER like this before and I'm appalled that it's become so disgustingly greedy to do this! Our tour started at 2:45 and it was SO crowded and SO rushed that we literally had 3 minutes in the Sistine Chapel, which is at the end of the tour, before the nasty guards literally turned all of the lights off and shoved us out the door!!! Can't miss your 5 pm espresso apparently!!! We were literally crowded shoulder to shoulder with others throughout a great deal of the museum and the chapel!!!

Book skip the line or a tour of the museums, Sistine Chapel and Basillica as one tour, if you book sistene chapel and basillica as a tour you do not have to wait in the huge security line for the Basillica (although it is free if you choose the latter) .

Great location. The Vatican Museums are within walking distance. There is a market at the end of the street, plenty of restaurants nearby, and a supermarket. The apartment is spacious, and the window insulation is fantastic, so it’s very quiet.

The apartment was very nice and we felt like locals there. The grocery store and restaurants are very close. The Vatican Museums are a 12-minute walk away. It’s a quiet neighborhood. The host was very kind and helpful; he gave us tips on restaurants and interesting places in Rome. I definitely recommend it.

Vicolo Navona was right in the center of the sites we most wanted to see. It was close to more than three bus stops and an easy walk to Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, the Vatican and Vatican museums, and to Travesevere. It was very clean, spacious and well supplied. Eleonora was a delight to deal with.

Lovely comfortable guesthouse in a great location- 5 minutes to the Vatican Museums entrance, 10 minutes to St Peters, and with a metro about 150 metres away. Spotless, very comfortable and cosy, the room was spacious and had everything we needed, including a little fridge and a kettle. The area is full of cafes, restaurants, supermarkets and bakeries. Would highly recommend and would stay here again if we return to Rome.

“The location is excellent, within walking distance to both the Vatican Museums and St. Peter’s Basilica. Instead of walking all the way to the center of Rome, take an Uber, and on the way back, walk through the city and visit each tourist spot one by one — it was a fantastic experience for us. The accommodation is clean; the building is a bit old and historic, but it’s not really an issue.”

You cannot avoid the crowd. The best suggestion to visit Vatican museums and St Peter's is to take a guided tour. To visit the Colosseum, book your tickets in advance over the internet and skip the line. Other attractions are easy to visit.
