Very good location for Vatican visit and dining out on foot and Rome city sightseeing by public transportation. Even Piazza del Popolo is in walking distance. Typical Italian style breakfast was at higher quality than standard 3 star hotels in Rome. The owners (mother and son) were very friendly and professional with multilingual skill, (Italian, English, and French with us.) The room and the common area were so clean and well maintained, and the room was large enough for us, 2 adults and 2 small kids.

Our room was on the street side, and the noise from the windows such as cars and pedestrians' voices were a bit annoying sometimes at night. It was quite okay before we went to bed, and maybe it was because of the year-end & new year period.

Great location close to Vatican City and a bit quieter than staying in central Rome, which we still found to be easily accessed on foot. We ate out every evening at local restaurants, all within a few minutes of the Polinari Rooms, and alongside locals. Great hosts who clearly enjoy what they do and want to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and breakfast was lovely.

Nothing to say

We chose this property because of its excellent location. This part of the city is calm, beautiful, and safe. We were very satisfied with the staff—Stefano was especially nice and helpful. Everyone spoke English. Rome is currently undergoing reconstruction, and Otaviano is closed, with work happening all around the city, but it will likely be finished by 2025. Thank you to the team for providing earplugs!

N/a

It was the perfect location very close to Vatican City and good walking to most sites. Breakfast supplied was sufficient. Stephan and Leslie were wonderful! If we had a need it was taken care of. Needed transportation to the airport and Stephan reserved a private care for just 10 euros over a taxi. Well worth it.

Can’t think of a thing.

Property is on excellent place. Only 1 km from Vatican, 800 meters from St. Peters square. Also, you can go walking to Fontaine Di Trevi and Piazza Navona. For Colosseum you need bus or Metro, but the Station is only 200 meters away. Run by family, mother and son. They were very friendly and pleasant. Also, they give us very useful Tips about restaurants, Public Transport and so many other things about Romans way of food and coffee. Apartment was very clean, breakfast was very good.

Everything was excellent, so there are no dislike about this apartments.

The property was very clean and spacious. We had a late check-in due to our arrival but he was very kind and waited for us. Same with your check-out we were allowed to leave our luggage and came to pick them up later. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was very clean with lots of towels. Breakfast was good with many kinds of fruits, breads, cheese and hams. They have an elevator if you need to bring up your luggage. The location is great with lots of restaurant.

Excellent location within close walking distance to the Vatican museums and subway and also easy distance to important - and impressive! - landmarks (Trevi, Pantheon, Roman forums, Colosseum etc). Building entrance is like many others on the street and somewhat easy to miss. Look out for building unit directory/buzzer listing Polinari rooms to the right of the front gate. Enjoyable and comfortable stay. As some previous guests have observed, important to remember the historical nature and age of most buildings around this location and adjust expectations accordingly.

The location was great being only 5-10 minutes easy walk from the Vatican and Ottaviano metro station. The style of the rooms was great being a converted nunnery, it felt really authentic. The breakfast was good and the staff were very helpful and responsive.

Unfortunately, there was a hot water fault whilst we were there which meant cold showers but the host was working hard to get it fixed. The inner door to the accommodation was a little bit of a pain to wrestle with and get it open, but once you get the hang, it's fine. Relatively minor and transient points that detract from what was a fantastic stay.

Some of the reviews just amaze me. If you want to stay in a super quiet neighborhood and have a super extensive buffet breakfast with omelets and scrambled eggs, don´t stay here. BUT! you will miss: -lovely staff, perfect professionals, who are helpful, and kind, but not intrusive at all -excellent location, 2 minutes from the subway, but most of the sights are within walking distance -surprisingly good breakfast for this kind of accommodation, remember, this is not a hotel -exceptional cleanliness, comfy beds, powerful wi-fi (tested by 2 teenagers) -unique atmosphere, the building is very old with a magical small inner garden and when the church bells start... OMG -reliable and professional private transfer from/to the airport, if you book directly with them, totally recommend Stefano and Lucrezia, you are doing fantastic work, thanks a lot for a lovely holiday and a very nice goodbye.

The property was an ideal location for us & only a few minutes from the metro. The property was spotlessly clean & the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was excellent.

The only comment (not really a complaint) would be it would have been nice to have had tea & coffee facilities in the room.
