Stayed for seven nights. Our host, Marco, was charming, helpful and very knowledgeable about sights, restaurants, exhibitions etc etc. The location was perfect for sight-seeing, within 30 minute walk of all notable sights. The area, Trastevere, was lively and touristy enough without rowdiness or any safety worries. The guest-house itself was very inviting and our room - good breakfast included... More

We stayed here in September and it was fantastic. We walked everywhere since most places were within 15 minutes walk time (at a brisk pace) although public transportation is really close by. Marco and the staff was very nice and helpful. I will stay here again the next time we are in Rome.

i´m a super critical traveller and hotel-nerd and can say: tolomei is a very romantic, nice place to stay. the hosts are super friendly and extremely supportive if it comes to any questions no matter what. if you are looking for the real, original and down-to-earth but still elegant rome - you are more than right. located very centered, its...

I stayed two nights at Arco dei Tolomei in April 2012 - visiting my daughter who is studying abroad in Rome. This is an altogether charming and wonderful small hotel/B&B...rooms were clean, furnishings nice & comfortable bed. The proprietor, Marco, was the most gracious host, as he advised on things to do, how to get places, restaurant recommendations (all were... More

After learning that I could not cram my family of four into any hotel room in Rome, and that the price tag for two rooms at the Westin would be $1,000 euros, I looked at my Rick Steve's guide for recommendations on B&B's. The many excellent recommendations for Arco dei Tolomei plus the price (less than half of the Westin)... More

We can not thank Maco and Gianna enough for their hospitality. Marco went out of his way to make sure our stay was enjoyable. Our room was confortable and clean. I would highly recommend staying here. The Trastevere district is a great location. Lots of restaurants to chose from.

This is a peaceful little place in the perfect location for discovering the delights of Rome. Extremely welcoming hosts Marco and Gianna who went above and beyond to ensure we got the most out of our stay. Lovely breakfast, great coffee, beautiful interior filled with antiques and insider knowledge of this city made us feel like we'd picked the right... More

If you want a taste of what it is like to be an insider in Rome you'll experience that at Arco dei Tolomei. Marco and Gianna open their historic and elegant home to a small number of guests wanting to stay on the peaceful side of the Trastevere district. Marco is a generous host who treats his guests as if... More

After a crazy taxi ride (though I am glad I didn´t leave finding the hotel up to my husband´s or my traveller skills, as there is no obvious sign to indicate you have found the right place), we received a very warm welcome, and were very impressed with the bedrooom, the common areas, and everything! We followed all of Marco´s... More
