Very disappointing stay. The hotel failed to meet basic expectations, especially considering the hig
Pros:

The bathroom was clean, and the hotel’s location was convenient for visiting the Vatican. Unfortunately, there was very little else we enjoyed during our stay.

Cons:

The room was in poor, worn condition, with damaged walls, chipped paint and broken furniture trim. The heater did not work, there was no night light, and the bed was uncomfortable. The bathroom was outdated, with very poor sound insulation, and noise from the restaurant was disturbing. We were also disappointed by the additional $27.44 charge for access to the Vatican-view terrace. Considering the total price of €4,870.80 for six nights and two rooms, the overall standard was unacceptable. We expected much better and would not return.

Perfect terrace views over St Peter's square. Lovely staff
Pros:

Amazing location, overlooking St Peter's square. Lovely terrace for drinks or a meal from the excellent restaurant. Used by Vatican visitors, so a little bit formal and ecclesiastic, but wonderful setting and easy bus/walking routes into the city. Friendly and helpful staff

Too short

You could not get a better location. It was amazing to step out your door and be in St Peter's Square in the Vatican in a few steps
