About

Rhome Hosting - Rome

Rhome Hosting is a small guest house set inside a residential complex on Viale Dei Bastioni Di Michelangelo, right along the Vatican wall. With just four rooms, it offers a quiet, intimate base for exploring Rome's historic centre. The property is smoke-free and provides Wi-Fi throughout, along with tea and coffee facilities in each room.

The location is the standout feature: you can walk to the Vatican Museums in minutes, and the Ottaviano Metro station is less than 10 minutes on foot. The area is lively, with restaurants and an acclaimed gelato shop just downstairs. A supermarket is about a 5-minute walk away, making it easy to stock up for your stay.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Prime Vatican location — The guest house sits right on the Vatican wall, with St. Peter's, the Vatican Museums, and the Ottaviano Metro all within a short walk.
  • Friendly, helpful hosts — Guests repeatedly mention the staff's warmth and willingness to share local tips, with one host even checking in by text to help with directions.
  • Clean, modern rooms — Rooms are described as tidy, well-maintained, and recently updated, with colorful bedding and efficient double glazing that keeps out street noise.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Very small property — With only four rooms, the guest house offers a quiet, intimate stay, but it means limited availability and no on-site facilities like a restaurant or gym.
  • Unconventional bathroom in some rooms — At least one room has a see-through glass wall for the toilet and shower, which some guests found odd despite the modern fixtures.
  • Entrance can be tricky to find — The property is inside a residential complex with no obvious sign; you need to press a buzzer to be let in, which first-time guests may find confusing.
  • Street noise potential — While double glazing helps, the property fronts a busy street near the Vatican, and some guests note traffic noise at certain times.

“The location is right on the Vatican Wall, easy to walk to all attractions. The room was nice and surprisingly quiet – traffic was not an issue after 11pm. With only four rooms, no noise from other guests. We had the room with the see-through bathroom – it's odd but tidy and modern, comfortable and brand new. We walked all the way to the Colosseum. Restaurants are underneath, supermarket 5 minutes, metro less than 10 minutes. The host texted and called to make sure we found the place – the address is correct but it's inside a complex with large wooden doors, no obvious signs, just press the buzzer.”

“Very well situated for the Vatican City and close to the railway station.”
