The bed and breakfast was in excellent location. I love it that its just walking distance from the Vatican and some major main attractions. The host Rafael was very accommodating. He let us check in early and he made sure that our room was up to standard. He also made sure that our room was clean on a daily basis. He also changed our towels everyday. Breakfast was from 7am-10am but Rafael made sure that the breakfast was ready earlier than 7am. He also made sure that our coffee was freshly brewed and hot. The only cons we saw was we couldnt find any English channel but overall we enjoyed our stay and we love the warm friendly service.

The place is a complex and it’s just opposite to Vatican . Manager Rafel took care of us and we could contact him for any issues . We got a wonderful feeling of staying in an European apartment. I would recommend anyone who would like to stay near Vatican and also not very far from Rome city center

Hospital host, value for money, great location

The host was extremely hospital that made our stay experience very pleasant. It is a 3 bedrooms B&B that you have your privacy and comfort in your own room and your private bathroom. It actually felt you stay at your uncle’s over a weekend. The location was great as it’s really close to Vatican and also near bus&subway stations. Also in 20-30 min walking distance of city center. The breakfast was also fine, like the thing that you can expect in your beloved uncle’s place. It was not a continental one but had all what you like for a complete and nutritious meal to start the day with. The entrance was a bit hard to find specially if you arrive late night, so make sure you communicate your arrival time to the owner so he makes himself available for help to find the entrance. I’ve attached the picture of the entrance door for those who are like me and need visual assistance ;) Thanks Rafael and dad for making our stay in Rome memorable :)

Fantastic Location...close to Vatican City!! Alessandro III is a very quiet and comfortable place to stay while in Rome. With its close location to the Vatican, you can definitely get an early start to the Vatican Museum and St. Peter’s Basilica to avoid the endless lines later in the morning. I found the B & B to be clean and well maintained. My room was up-to-date with good wifi, clean modern ensuite bathroom, wardrobe, excellent functioning air conditioner, an in room safe with key, and a flat panel television set. I enjoyed my eight nights here. The hosts were very welcoming, friendly, and attentive. The host offered valuable information about the city of Rome and sightseeing suggestions. On three separate occasions, “must see” Rome sightseeing attractions were shared. These suggested attractions were highlights of my trip to Rome. Thank you!!

Second time staying here. Good b&b, close to Vatican. Not loud unless you get crazy seagulls, but can't avoid those in Rome. If I'm in Rome again, would stay here again.

Not a hotel

Was difficult to find, no signs. No parking for cars, street parking only. Difficult to find a spot on the street. Must feed parking meter. This is a b&b, not a hotel. Bed uncomfortable.

Nice B&B in a good location

I chose this hotel because of the good reviews. I have to agree with the comments from prior guests. The room is clean and a good size. Location is excellent a few steps from Vatican City and other tourist attractions. I was treated with caring and kindness. Breakfast was good. Heat was good too. Room temperature and hot water. I was assisted during my stay making the experience for me and my boyfriend so pleasant and unique. I strongly recommend this hotel for you.

Pleasant stay

This B&B is located near the Vatican area -- a 5-10 minute walk -- with several restaurants and many shops selling Vatican-related tourist paraphernalia also nearby. It is a pleasant neighborhood. Check-in was simple, WiFi worked well, beds were comfortable, but breakfast very minimalist, though coffee was excellent. The majority of tourism sites require transport. There is a Hop-On/HopOff ticketing site and a stop about a 15-minute walk from the B&B.

Close to all the Major Sites of Rome

Very close to the Vatican and most of the major sites in Rome. We walked to all the sites. Some were 30 minutes or so away. The Vatican is only a 5 or 6 minute walk. The B&B is a little hard to find but just ask at a nearby restaurant and they will clarify the directions. The B&B is very safe and is a good value for the money.

Could have been bettet

Room not ready on arrival in the aftetnoon. Shown to the owners own bedroom and told to stay in that overnight until the next night ! Then finally a room was ready for us at 18.00. The door intercom is very very loud and in the hallway outside all the rooms. Every time someone rings it day or night you will wake up.. suggest it is moved to the owners quarters . The television in our room mysteriously disappeared on the second day with no explanation ?!! And breakfast on the last day was what appeared to be an afterthought.. just enough coffee for 1 cup.. no rolls nothing like the previous days.. very strange.. plus points.. Room was clean.. location is very good. And the bed was very comfy.. just let down by a few niggles..

Good place after problem finding it

Once inside, this was a good and central place to stay. However, I had a real problem finding it as I was expecting a hotel called Allesandro III. In fact, via Allesandro III 6 is an apartment block with about 30 doorbells. I needed to push BBRome4U bell to gain admittance, something which was not obvious from my booking with yourselves. This needs to be in the information you give for this property.

Pleasant stay metres from the St Peter's Square

We stayed 4 nights at Alessandro III. Our hosts were very helpful. It's a wonderful location a few hundred metres from St Peter's Square. I would recommend staying here
