Top Sistine Chapel Hotel Reviews

Hotel Abruzzi

10/10 Excellent

"Really great location near the pantheon, the room is was very nice. The staff were very nice!"

San Pietro Boutique Rooms

10/10 Excellent

"I was a little nervous about staying here as it's not a hotel, but a boutique guesthouse. When we arrived we were overwhelmed by both the charm of the place and the welcome we got from the owners. The owners waited for us to arrive on our train so that they could greet us, acclimate us to the rooms, etc. They were amazing. There are only 6 rooms in this guesthouse. My friends and I had 4 of them. We all LOVED this place. Very unique, very comfortable - rooms are large and have very high ceilings that make you feel like you have even more space. The bathrooms were fantastic. The beds were really comfortable. Everything about this place was amazing. The location is also terrific - just a few blocks from Vatican City and lots of restaurants. I will be telling everyone I know about this place. Thank you Francesa & Diego! God willing, I will be back!!"
