We found we could walk to just about every main attraction in Rome from this small hotel. It is very conveniently situated to lots of good trattoria/cafes/bars and there is a tram reasonably close to catch. The rooms were wonderfully clean. The breakfast was served in the room (winter) and on a very attractive terrace in the warmer weather. I... More

I had a very pleasant stay at Villa della Fonte. The friendly and accommodating staff, nice breakfast on the attractive terrace, great location on a little street just off Piazza Santa Maria in Trastevere, and the comfortable, pleasant room all contributed. I was there for seven nights in October. The first night was a bit noisy with conversations on the... More

Villa della Fonte Guest House was a good find in Rome! We wanted a true neighborhood experience and after having a little trouble with the taxi finding the B&B, we were greeted kindly by the desk reception. It is a small, family run B&B with only 5 rooms, which are well maintained with nice furniture, attention to detail, very nice... More

Although initially alarmed by the graffiti on the walls approaching the entrance this was soon dispelled once inside the hotel. Very comfortable room, pleasant staff and lovely breakfast in the sunshine on the terrace every morning. The square which is a stone's throw from the hotel is a lovely place to sit and have a coffee mid-morning overlooking the fountain... More

This is certainly a gem. Small, family run with only 5 rooms, extremely well maintained, with nice furniture, attention to detail, very nice service, a lovely terrace in the back for breakfast and sitting out in the evening (only until 1045 at night though). The rooms are small but this is really quite normal in this part of the city.... More

Fantastic customer service, perfect restaurant recommendations and good tips for visiting Rome's attractions (which have confusing opening/closing times and peak busy periods); they wanted us to have a great visit to Rome and we did. Clean, good sized room and nice bathroom. Good breakfast. Some noise from outside at night, but seemed to quiet down after midnight, probably louder in... More

We - a couple 24 & 27 - spent two charming nights at this guesthouse. Nothing to complain! However, at warm summer nights it does get noisy, which we didn't really bother. The best about this little gem is the location (Trastevere) and the roof-top like terrace, where you are being served sweet, yet no sour breakfast. To top all... More

This would be the perfect small hotel experience in Rome except for one major thing - every morning they insist you eat breakfast before 10 AM and when you don't show up exactly at the minute you said you would arrive, they call your room, waking you with its incredibly loud ring and when you still don't show up 10...

Dear Sir/Madame, Thank you very much to leave your suggestion on Tripadvisor. Each customer request is really important for us. Normally we ask to the customer to fill up a form for breakfast to ensure the freshness of products offered. About the breakfast time (08am-10am), is not absolutely required to communicate the night before. During springtime and summer we served... More

I loved this place. I recently traveled to Italy with my 70 year old mom for a friend's wedding. We stayed at a place in central Rome for a few days, traveled to Umbria, then came back to Rome. I really wanted to stay in Trastevere and explore it more. The hotel was wonderful. Clean, comfortable and in an amazing... More

Villa della Fonte is a delightful very small hotel next to a beautiful square perfectly located in ther heart of Trastevere. Staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. Good breakfasts brought to your room. Can't think of anywhere better and more convenient to stay in Rome - will definitely go back. More
