Highly recommended!

This was our first time to Rome, with our two small children, (aged 8 and 5). We booked a transfer to and from the airport which was only about 30 minutes away. The hotel was very clean, extremely comfortable and had everything that we needed for our 4 night stay. We booked the Junior suite which was perfect for us. The Manager, Carlo could not have been more accomodating and helpful. He gave us great recommendations for local famly run eateries which were all within a few minutes walk from our doorstep. The closest Metro station is just a short 10 minute walk, and the Vatican City walls are a further 5 minutes down the road. Perfect location. Rome is a beautiful city which we have all fallen in love with and we will definitly be visiting again one day and will be staying at the Athena Guest House.

Empfehlenswertes B & B in Vatikannähe

Sehr schönes B & B mit einer Gesamtanzahl von 4 kurzfristig auch auf 5 Zimmer erweiterbar. Ideal für Gruppen. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Einziger Wermutstropfen: Das Haus liegt an einer belebten Straße und hat keine Schallschutzfenster.
