We have just returned from a week at the Vatican Hotel. Its location is close to the Vatican Museum. Bus/metro connections to the centre are good, in the night there is 99N bus regularly driving from the centre, takes around 10 minutes.

The hotel is basically a flat converted into B&B. Rooms are very nice and clean. The building is located at an inner backyard, therefore very quiet, you can sleep with open window.

The reservation was done over internet, worked well. The price 90EUR includes a breakfast at a local bar. Breakfast is simple (coffee, juice, croissant) but the bar is a perfect place for observing the authentic live of Romans.

“Alexander Platz”, the best jazz club in Rome, is just around the corner. A market at Via Andrea Doria is practically downstairs. There are also plenty of local restaurants/bars in the area.

WLAN available for free.

Summary: if you like the hotel’s location, would like to get some rest from hordes of tourists and don¨t care about rather small room (for photos see their homepage) this is the perfect place to stay!

Advice: buy/print from internet a map of ATAC bus transportation system, otherwise the navigation can get rather inefficient.

Wish you nice stay in Rome!
