“Located a comfortable walk from the Vatican Museums and St. Peter's Basilica, this is an elegant home base in a less-crowded pocket of Rome. I especially appreciate the hydromassage showers in every bathroom, along with the shared lounge, which invites relaxation after a day of exploring. The building itself, renovated from the 1930s, blends historical charm with modern comforts.”
