Staff helped get our room cleaned quickly after more than a 12 hour travel day. Thank you for accommodating our family of 5! It was such a relief to help us work around our excursions and also hold our bags beyond check out.

It was small, the people were nice. Clogged drain with a bird's nest of hair that I had to remove after "room cleaning". Makes me wonder if they cleaned the shower. Breakfast was fair. Location was good, they called a cab for us and did let us set bags up there due to early arrival. Overall medium.

We stayed 3 nights and the staff was very accommodating to us and arranged transportation for us on 4 occasions. They left plenty of information on a table in our room. I did not notice that we were provided a free bottle of sparkling wine until I read the information on the 3rd day. We enjoyed it that night! I highly recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to stay near the Vatican. It is a short walk to a nearby metro station, as well. The staff were all friendly and professional.

Vatican Relais Rome delivered on all fronts. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcome and well-informed thanks to proactive and thoughtful communication. The room was immaculate, charming, and quiet—perfect for a restful night after a day exploring the city. And what a location! We could stroll to the Vatican in just a few minutes and also access the metro and nearby shops with ease. Every detail—from the amenities to the value offered—was cohesive, and I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Avoid! Avoid! Avoid! The mattresses are worn out and dip down in center 4". They only have twin beds. To make 1 larger bed, they push 2 twins together so you end up with two beds with dips in each side. The center is very hard. We didn't sleep at all as mattresses are heavily worn. They advertised 24 hour shuttle. What they mean is they will arrange for an uber. However, our flight was changed and we needed to be at the airport earlier. When I asked to change shuttle they said no. We decided to book the uber ourselves (2 hours before original uber they booked). They told us we could not cancel. I explained that we had to be at the airport earlier and were getting an uber on our own. Then said we had to pay anyway. Understand they do not provide the shuttle...they simply arrange it and customer pays to uber direct - it's not free shuttle service. We refused to pay them for uber we didn't use and an asian man called me names and was rude. At check-in we were a few hours early and our room was not ready. They kept our bags at the check-in counter and put bags in our room when ready. When we returned we discovered cash was missing from a bag. If you are expecting a "typical US type hotel", avoid this place. It is more of a youth hostel vibe. But my biggest complaint is if your business is providing a place to sleep, you should have a decent mattress. The mattress was simply unacceptable and pushing 2 worn-out together to make a queen bed -ridiculous.

The staff were great, very accomodating when we ended up having a very late check-in, due to delays at the airport. The location is very convenient for walks to St Peter’s square and the Vatican museum/Sistine chapel, public transport and food options. Reasonable room facilities. The lift to get upstairs to the second floor is small, found it easier to use the stairs.
