Being so close to the Vatican is incredible. The views walking to and from the hotel every day were breathtaking. Felt very safe, especially so at night, when we were walking back very late. Always plenty of lighting and people around to feel secure. Rome transportation is not great, so we walked most places. The big sight seeing spots are all relatively close and there are so many things to see and do in between stops.
The shower stall is incredibly small. Very hard to move in it without touching the walls/doors. A larger person may find this especially difficult to maneuver.

We had a very enjoyable stay at this hotel. Great location, just steps outside the Vatican. We loved stepping outside at night to see it lit up at night, so different from the day. The inner courtyard was lovely. It is quiet for where it is located. Also a nice spread at breakfast.
The room we booked was on the smaller side, as was the bathroom/shower. Also, when we arrived, outside doors were closed and it was a little bit hard to find. Call the hotel and they'll help buzz you in!

Great location and position, ideal to reach Vatican City and the City Centre. I was there for work, however I could appreciate the good position and the St. Peter cathedral/basilica. Good breakfast and clean rooms.
As an italian traveller in Italy I would've liked to have a bidet in the bathroom. For 1-2 nights it's fine. Bed mattress and pillows less than ideal.

Location was excellent and the property was interesting due to the history and also that it is still in use by the church. Very quiet, cool courtyard and real contrast to the noise and chaos outside.
Our room was comfortable and very clean but decor was tired and wardrobe doors were broken and the desk also making it impossible to open the drawers. Bathroom also, very clean but could do with some attention.

Beautiful hotel with the perfect location for Vatican City. Staff on par with the best hotels weve ever stayed at. Evelyn and Claudia were warm, kind, helpful, and tremendously knowledgeable about the city, restaurants, tours, etc.

The location of this hotel is hard to beat--right on the edge of St Peter's square in a beautiful old palazzo, with a stunning little courtyard inside, which was enchanting in the evenings when it was lit up--we were also directed to their sister hotel for aperitivo on a rooftop terrace overlooking the Vatican, which was really lovely (though a little pricey). The rooms were comfortable but un-flashy, but spotlessly clean and well serviced, quiet and restful. It felt so private and quiet--a real haven in busy Rome--but also so central and convenient! The breakfast was delicious--absolutely everything you could want including a cooked English breakfast with scrambled eggs, or Italian pastries (which were fresh and warm) or cereal, fruit, yoghurt, ham, cheese, toast--you would be very hard to please if you couldn't find something that you liked! Staff were attentive but unobtrusive, and the reception staff exceptionally pleasant and helpful, including arranging taxis and airport transfers. A really charming hotel. The location of this hotel
It was actually perfect. I wish we had had aperitivo in the courtyard, which I think was available, but we missed it as we were busy. We would certainly return if we were to visit Rome in the future.

The Palazzo is an exceptional hotel. The staff are friendly, professional & accommodating. Hygiene is of the highest standard and the bed was so comfortable. You just cannot beat the location of this very safe property.

The location is just phenomenal. So close to St. Peters Square, the ability to go there every evening and see it in the dark with almost no one there is just magical.
I honestly liked everything. If I had to choose a dislike Id say the breakfast was very sweet!

The location was the best! Located just a few yards from the Vatican, the view right out the door is amazing! The breakfast selection was great, the staff was friendly and helpful, and the room was reasonably comfortable, though small.
The pillows were completely flat, but we didn't think to ask for others. The shower may have been the smallest I've ever been in, but it worked great. The room was small, but had what what we needed. The location and charm of the hotel more than made up for any deficiencies.

The location is incredible..right next to St Peter's..so close you could touch it! The staff were so kind & helpful. The breakfast was good. There is a covent attached to the hotel so nuns & priests wander through a shared passage way / entrance. Each day you are given a daily bible reading. Inside the hotel is an open air atrium with tall trees..like something from another era. It is a real experience staying here. In the bustle of Rome this hotel is a little oasis of peace.
The main entrance is not obvious at night, but there is a bell & each time we were let in quicly. Sadly there are lots of rough sleepers around the Vatican..that can be a bit intimidating as one night it seemed a soup kitchen was outside the hotel doors.
