    The host, Giorgio was very helpful! Best host we’ve had staying throughout Europe at various locations. Good location in terms of visiting Vatican, and only a 200m walk from the train station which was ideal.

Property information

Vatican Steps is a guesthouse inaugurated in May 2022. It consists of four comfortable rooms, each with its own unique features. The size, furnishings, and lighting vary from room to room, offering our guests the opportunity to choose the accommodation and comfort they find optimal. All this, literally, a step away from Vatican City. The four rooms all come with private bathrooms, a powerful and stable free Wi-Fi system, and are air-conditioned with state-of-the-art cooler/heater units. The televisions are SMART TVs. Kettles with a selection of teas are available for guests. Three rooms are equipped with a minibar, and two can accommodate a third bed. A travel cot is also available for our youngest guests. And let's not forget the self-service and free coffee machine at the entrance!

Neighbourhood information

Vatican Steps is located at number 74 in Via della Meloria, about 100 meters from the Metro A stop “Cipro – Musei Vaticani,” in the heart of the lively Trionfale neighborhood, full of shops, bars, and restaurants. However, thanks to its secluded position, our guesthouse keeps all noise at bay. Your nights will be peaceful and quiet. And once you're ready to go out, Rome is at your fingertips! A 10-minute walk is enough to reach the Vatican Museums, Piazza Risorgimento, and Via Cola di Rienzo. The Metro A takes about 12 minutes to reach Termini Station, and just over 5 minutes to get to Piazza del Popolo and Piazza di Spagna. The perfect starting point for your Roman holiday!
