Stefano was the desk clerkwhen we checked out in the morning of the 29th. He was very rude to the 2 guests ahead of us. Came our turn, he was also rude. He needs to chill 50 %. Otherwise the rest of the staff were excellent. Another thing, the breakfast was excellent on the 25th. It went down quick from 10 to 3.the bread were stale, hard & old.I have to ask them to heat up the american coffee. It did not taste freshly brewed when it came back and lukewarm not hot.the bacon tasted old.scrambled eggs lukewarm and watery.hard boiled eggs Seems been there for days. Location was convenient. Mostly just walking distance!

It was clean and adequate for my one night stay. The choose of a larger twin bed room was nice. Staff did their job well but weren’t very friendly compared to my stay in Airbnb in Umbria or hotels elsewhere

Excellent location.

Hotel is a 5 minute walk from the Vatican City and St Peter's with Castel Sant'Angello 2 minutes walk at the side of the River Tiber. By crossing a bridge you are in the area where you can visit the Pantheon, Piazza Navona and the Trevi Fountain. A 10 minute walk from the hotel takes you to a bus terminus where you can take a bus to the Colessium etc. Remember to buy a bus ticket before boarding the bus. The hotel was previously a convent and the decor reflects that. The rooms have high ceilings which helps to keep them cool. The bed is very comfortable and the breakfast was very good with a buffet of hot and cold food.

A great place to stay in Rome

Leaving a conference, I had an extra night in Rome and decided to stay here. It was wonderful. It used to be part of the Carmelite seminary, but was converted into a hotel. Very nice and very central!

Perfect spot

Very close to the Vatican and well placed for everything else in Rome. The staff are very friendly, helpful and professional, the facilities fairly basic but who goes to Rome to sit in an hotel? There is a smashing roof terrace from which one can see the dome of St Peter's. I liked it up there ford thing in the morning and at sunset. Given the location, the price is very reasonable compared to others in the area. I will stay there again.

Domus Carmelitana: Ideal for Short Stay in Rome

The Domus Carmelitana is a gem! Ideally located for visits to the Vatican and both the modern and ancient sites in Rome. On arrival in the air conditioned building, I received a friendly welcome, checked in and given the wifi passwords. The room was ideal: immaculately clean, air conditioning and with an en suite bathroom. The breakfast was excellent! A wide range to choose from and a friendly staff on hand. There was a laundry service available if required. A thoroughly enjoyable stay and without hesitation would choose the Domus again.

Stayed 2 nights for a rugby weekend. The hotel staff are very helpful and cheerful, nothing seemed too much trouble for them - they even operate a 24 hour bar which is a massive plus on a rugby weekend! They gave some great recommendations for local bars and restaurants. We would definitely go back there again.

Nice clean hotel close to the Vatican

A family run feel hotel in a good location only 10mins walk from the Vatican. Although there are lots of shops and restaurants a few minutes away, there's more to choose from across the river and that's a 20min walk. A good place to stay.
