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.

    Expensive, and even more expensive if you take a tour and avoid the endless lines for tickets. Some of the world's greatest painting masterpieces are here. No bare shoulders or hemlines above the knees are allowed.

    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) .

    A beautiful old building with a working lift! Great location- 2 mins walk from Roma S.Pietro train station, under 15 minutes walk to Piazza San Pietro. An extra 10 or so of walking round the other side to the Vatican museums entrance. Alessia was incredibly helpful via WhatsApp in guiding us to the property, meeting us there and showing us to our room, we felt very welcomed and safe.

    The location is particularly good. It's less than a 3-minute walk to the Vatican Museums. There are supermarkets and convenience stores nearby. It's only a 3-minute walk to the subway station. The details of the room are great and I like them very much.

    The three main advantages are: 1.The location: right next to the Vatican (close to the main entrance of the Vatican Museums); numerous cafés and bakeries in the area, where you could have breakfast or buy panini to go, as well as the Ottaviano metro station within a 10-minute walk. 2.Two separate bedrooms and an independent living room with a kitchenette; 3.Very kind hosts and smooth communication with them at check-in.

    The apartment is spacious and exactly as described. It has all the equipment you need for a comfortable stay. The location is great — about a 20-minute walk to the Vatican Museums, with a large market, bus stops, and the metro just a few minutes away. One small suggestion for the host: it would be nice to have bed blankets available during the autumn season, as the nights can be slightly cold.

    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.
