What a fantastic place! Everything you could possibly need and then some more. Great location, minutes walk to the Vatican, great restaurants right at the doorstep, metro station right up the street....what more could you want. We even walked right into the heart of Rome and its wonderful sights! Clean and tidy, plenty of options in the fridge and cupboard... More

Location: The apartment is in the best location you could ask for. Everything was within walking distance and if you do need the metro it is literally around the corner. The apartment: It's on the 3rd floor of an apartment building (with lift). Once you go up, you go through the front door and there is a kitchen which is... More

David responsed to my email very quickly and the B&B is lovely and cozy. The location is perfect for us to visit Vantican museum and St Peter square. And we can take the metro (about one minute walk) to most of the tourist places we want to go in Rome.

I stayed here for 6 nights after travelling for 10days in venice and florence..and this is the best bnb I've ever stayed. David is so hospitable and never fails to drop an email (if he doesnt see us) to check on us everyday. The home is stocked with so much food that it can probably last a week! And the... More

Gli Scipione was the best. It's in an excellent position - close to the Vatican and close to the metro. the rooms are comfortable and clean but you also get so many treats - wine, bottled water, dvd collection, great selection of snacks. And then there's the kitchen which is so full of food you won't ever go hungry: fruit,... More

A wonderful place to stay- fantastic host (thank you David!), a great location (just around the corner from the Vatican and the Metro, in an area with lots of good places to eat), and a beautiful room in the world's greatest city. I definitely will be returning!

On a recent trip to Italy, our first accommodation was Bed & Breakfast Gli Scipioni in Rome. When it was time to leave, we were sorry to go! Location: Perfect! Everything we needed was a block and a half away at most. We did laundry at the Laundrymat right at the next corner ( turn right upon exiting the building... More

Hi we have just returned from a 4 night stay in Rome and stayed @ Gli Scipioni. The bed and breakfast was awesome. Right from the point of booking, the owner David was brilliant, we normally book through a travel agent and get a package deal, but we decided to go it alone this time and book everything seperate.

'Man flu'........behave yourself!!! You should see my wife when she has it like she's got the black death plague and on death's door......better to just cut out the middle man and call the undertakers directly rather than the doctor! Hey Charmaine, Thanks for the lovely review. I was wondering what happened to all the ice creams!!! See you guys again... More

My wife and I booked the Gli Scipioni for our honeymoon based on all the positive reviews, and David didn't disappoint. He and his wife are super kind and helpful B&B owners, and we just loved the "come as you want" apartment style vibe of the place. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and I 100% recommend a... More
