Pros:

The best stay in Rome!

We absolutely loved our stay at Eccelso Hotel. The location is perfect — just a couple of minutes’ walk from St. Peter’s Square, St. Peter’s Basilica and the Vatican. It was incredibly convenient for exploring Rome on foot.

The room was beautiful, cozy, very clean and, most importantly, wonderfully quiet. After long days walking around Rome, it was such a pleasure to come back and relax. The bed and mattress were very comfortable, and we slept extremely well.

The atmosphere of the hotel is warm and welcoming, and you can really feel how much care the owners put into making their guests comfortable.

Everything about our stay was wonderful. If we come back to Rome, we would happily stay here again. Thank you, Piera and Francesca, for making our time in Rome so special!

Highly recommended — 10/10.

Kleines Hotel in der Nähe des Vatikan
Pros:

Frühstück konnte man an der Rezeption bestellen (5 Euro - dann "italienisch"), das haben wir nicht genutzt (u.a. weil kein Platz im Zimmer war). Es gibt - stattdessen - einige italienische Caffés in der Nähe...
Die Lage ist das beste an diesem Hotel: Sehr nahe am Petersplatz und den Vatikanischen Museen (beides gut zu Fuß machbar); Zur U-Bahn (Metro) ca. 5 Minuten (Haltestelle "Ottaviano"). Man sollte wissen: Die Gegend ist (wg. Vatikan) touristisch überlaufen.
Das Zimmer hatte einen kleinen Kühlschrank (befüllt - Wasser = 2 Euro). Kleiner Schreibtisch.
Das Hotel hat nur 12 Zimmer und ist im EG eines größeren Palazzo untergebracht; die Eigentümergesellschaft vermietet auch Apartments in der Nähe...
In der Nähe sind einige Restaurants, in denen sich auch Einheimische verköstigen - an der Rezeption fragen!

Cons:

Das Zimmer war zwar ausreichend groß für 3 Nächte; aber es gab keine Ablagen, um die Wäsche auf dem Koffer zu nehmen. Da wäre - bei DEM Preis - etwas mehr Komfort angebracht gewesen.
Zum Bad: Angemessen groß; Duschverkleidung allerdings 'sensibel' (Man hatte sie schnell in der Hand). Handtuchwechsel nur alle zwei Tage; lediglich die Fußmatte täglich.
Ansonsten: Rom ist Rom - knallhart. Es gibt nichts geschenkt. Gefühlt in jedem dritten Haus ist ein Restaurant, das von Touristen lebt. Man kann sich aus diesem Strudel aber auch heraushalten (s.o.)

Un hotel para repetir
Pros:

Es un hotel muy familiar y se nota. El trato es cercano pero profesional. Te dan la oportunidad de tomar un pequeño desayuno en tu habitación por solo 5€, y merece la pena. La cama es comodísima. Pese a estar solo un poco por encima del nivel de la calle, no se oye un ruido de fuera. La localización es perfecta.

Great experience at the Eccelso Hotel no
Pros:

The Eccelso met our expectations. Our room was as per the pictures and included all facilities as described. The location is central to the metro and Vatican city with many restaurants and shops nearby. The staff was lovely and very helpful with Ahnke deserving a special call out. Highly recommended.

Cons:

A note for light sleepers. Soundproofing is sufficient, but loud alarms, arguments, or heavy bass music in the adjacent room will be audible. The hotel has put up ample signage to remind guests to be quiet, but depends on guests observing hotel etiquette.
