Hotel Residenza Paolo VI - Rome

This hotel was AMAZING. You could not ask for a better location for sightseeing in Rome. The breakfast was good as well. Would stay here again and ABSOLUTELY recommend to friends.

If you want to be right next to St Peter's this is the place for you. Great for pilgrims and others who want the Vatican experience. Great staff, very helpful. Breakfast was quite nice. This was my 5th visit to Rome and I would stay here again!!!

9.5

this is a clean and well maintainened hotel in the most desirable part of the city, the rooms are very small due to it previously being a monestry but the location is perfect and I would recommend it as an ideal base for sightseeing.

9.1

We really enjoyed our stay. The hotel is perfectly located for visiting The Vatican and is adjacent to a handy bus route for getting to the other main sights, and to the main rail station. Great views over St. Peter's Square and close to some nice restaurants, which the staff recommended. The staff were great and very willing to give any help or advice that was asked for.

Lack of tea/coffee making facilities was a huge disadvantage that would make me think twice about staying here again.

8.6

Service and staff excellent, one small problem resolved immediately with no fuss. Rooms are on the small side, but it's very quiet, a boon in Rome. Plus no smoking clearly means no smoking. Staff able to suggest restaurants, routes, times, etc. If you are thinking of going to the Sistine Chapel etc, do book first online, it;s still chaos, but the queues are somewhat less. Best route to the hotel from the main station is the 64 bus, first stop after it goes through the tunnel.

Very nice hotel at very convenient location. Rooms are a bit small, but staff is very friendly. A bit too expensive.

My husband and I went to Italy for our honeymoon in early October 2008. We arrived in Rome at the airport, took the express train to the train station, and the metro to the closest station that the hotel recommended. We walked maybe 1/2 mile to the Piazza San Pietro at the base of the Basilica. We took some pictures and continued trying to find our hotel...we crossed the street and couldn't believe it! There it was, across the street from St. Peter's Basilica! The woman at the desk was very nice and chipper. Our room had a lovely view of the courtyard. Breakfast was served upstairs every morning (we stayed 3 nights) buffet style with plenty of selection. The wait-staff was very gracious. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend to anyone. There were older couples and families with children that we saw at breakfast each morning.

Stephanie and Anna at the front desk were helpful and nice. The man that was working, however, was rude and provided no assistance. Staff in breakfast area were great, even knew which drinks we prefered and had them to us as we walked in.

8.0

The room was rather small - there was not even sufficient space for a small desk. But it is situated in a superb location; the breakfast room and breakfast were excellent; and the view from the terrace is worth the money alone

8.6

What a location! You are literally across the road from St Peters making the view from the terrace absolutely heavenly! The hotel is on the 3rd floor of the building with easy lift access and very secure. The rooms are beautifully fitted out, the breakfast enjoyable and the staff very helpful. We had been to Rome before and wanted a memorable accommodation experience before we flew home. Residenza Paolo V1 provided just that. We would highly recommend the hotel.

We came to Rome on pilgrimage, so Residenza Paolo VI was the perfect place to stay. By staying here there was no discontinuity between the marvelous religious expereinces we had in the Vatican and returning to our beautiful hotel, with friendly, competent staff,a crucifix in our room, and the daily Bible readings placed under our door each morning. From prayer to prayer - thank you!!

9.8

The only aspect that was missing is the ability to eat at the hotel other than that it was marvelous. The location was amazing and perfect

8.3

It was a wonderful experience staying at Residenza Paolo VI;staff courteous,and very helpful. The location is perfect; you are in walking distance of all the major attractions, bus service very close by.A perfect place to come back to after a busy day site seeing and shopping;a beautiful terrace to unwind.

Hotel Residenza Paola VI is a beautiful hotel and was well situated for my elderly mother. In fact this was her 80th birthday present. Only one fact however marred the visit. On arrival to the hotel-at 9.00pm, we were informed by the receptionist that due to a mix up at the booking office, the single room booked was unavailable and my mother would have to spend the night at the nearby Cardinal Cesi hotel for the first night of our stay. This is a very nice hotel too, but we were very disappointed that a room we had booked 10 weeks prior to our arrival was not available and that no effort was made to inform us of this before arrival late on the Friday evening. The hotel did arrange taxi transference, and gave us food by way of apology, and were more than gracious the whole weekend. However I still fail to understand why this situation arose as we had booked well in advance!

9.8

An ideal venue if you want to be close to St Peter's Square. The hotel and staff were excellent. The staff were very good English speakers.

We loved the Residenza Paolo. It was beautiful but watch out for pickpockets in Rome! Our stay at this hotel was superb. The staff was so friendly and kind especially when we were upset over having been pickpocketed. The location is the best if you want to stay near the Vatican. The columns of St. Peter's Square are outside the front courtyard! Beautiful experience staying here.

We had a wonderful stay and would recommend it to others.

We had a very nice stay at the Residenza Paolo VI. If you want to see St. Peters Church this hotel is the ideal point to stay at. The rooms are not large but the terrasse is just marvelous. The area is very quiet. the breakfast is a chapther on its own. The staff was very helpful. All we can recommend the Residenza Paolo VI.

8.0

In my opinion, level of comfort, cleanliness and service was very good. The location at the Vatican was outstanding and the hotel was very quiet (no traffic noise). The room was a little smaller than I expected but had everything we needed. Breakfast and service were very good and there were no hidden extras on the bill. We enjoyed sitting on the terrace overlooking the Basilica.
