You can hear the other guests coming back to their rooms and talking in the hallway. The soundproofing is not ideal.

We had a lovely stay at Fragrance Hotel St. Peter. The location was ideal for us (could walk to the city centre, nice restaurants nearby) and the view of St. Peter's cathedral from the balcony was truly breathtaking. The room was clean and had everything we needed. The staff were all very friendly.

Family room was like to separate rooms, so it was not comfortable. Quadruple room is better.

Nice location, good service, beautiful terrace.

We truly enjoyed our stay at Fragrance Hotel St. Peter. The location is exceptional – within a short walking distance from the Vatican, yet tucked away on a quiet street that offers peace after a day of sightseeing. Ideal for exploring the Eternal City on foot or by public transport. The staff were consistently attentive, professional, and kind – always ready with a smile or helpful tip. Their thoughtful gestures made our stay even more enjoyable. The room was compact but very well laid out, spotless, and comfortable. We had a lovely view, which added a charming Roman touch to our mornings. Breakfast was above expectations for this category – a fresh, varied buffet that included both sweet and savory options, and quality coffee to start the day right.

No Metro stop nearby. Only after a few days, did we learn that the regional train (6 minutes away) will take you to the Metro for 1 Euro.

Very close to St. Peter’s square and good neighborhood restaurants. Staff was very helpful.

Property was better than I expected, room was really good size ( with surprisingly big bed) and very clean, and this room had an amazing view to the St.Peters basilica. Staff who working in hotel are amazing, very polite, very helpful. Always make sure that you will have everything and give all information you needed. Breakfast had different options and was really tasty. If you will be tired after long day and still will wish to go out they have amazing Gallo roof top and you can enjoy amazing food and the view. I will definitely will visit this hotel.

The proximity to the vatican..

The only downside is that it's a bit far from the city, but it's manageable with buses. If you're coming from the airport, there's a train station right next to the property.

Simple but great for a short stay. The shower and bed are excellent, and the room is quiet. Breakfast offers a variety of options and a beautiful view.

My stay at Fragrance was a delight! The staff was extremely friendly and polite. I really enjoyed breakfast every morning on a rooftop with a wonderful view.

Folks from the US need to remember that the shower glass doesn’t keep all the water in. Do make sure wipe the water off floor. Slippery floor. Rooms are decent sized.

The breakfast was good. Loved the coffee maker and view! Staff very helpful. Getting up the hill to hotel was tricky but what a view at the top. You’re right next to the Vatican and subway. Great location.

Great staff! They helped me park my car and also pick a restaurant on Uber Eats! Clean and great terrace at the rooftop for breakfast and evening drinks. Close to train station and St. Peter basilica. Will stay here again if I visit Rome.

nothing really - we prefer a gym or pool but we knew when booking that this hotel didn't have those facilities!

This is a really lovely hotel! All staff we encountered were so friendly and helpful and the beds were SO comfortable (so much so that we were disappointed to go home to our own beds!). The property is well-located, although there is not much of note in the immediate area, but the Vatican City is a short 10 min or so walk away. Breakfast was good value, with lots of options.

The room (which was upgraded on arrival) wasn't very big and there was virtually no space to unpack. Only six coat hangers, no drawers at all and no proper shelving space. We also asked for two glasses in the room so that we could have cold drinks from the fridge but were refused as the staff said that plastic cups (two provided in the bathroom) were more ECO friendly. Rooftop bar/restaurant was a disappointment. We were given a drinks menu but none of the options on the wine list were available. We had to ask to see the bottles so we could make our choice. We then picked out the spicy beef ragu from the menu. There was no tomato based sauce and no spice. Not sure that the dish was seasoned either. Our wine choice was good but we felt short changed for our 68 euros. Didn't eat there a second time.

Breakfast staff were lovely and reception staff mostly helpful. The continental breakfast was good but a better variety of eggs would be a lovely addition. The neighbourhood had no specific vibe as it was a residential area though there were good restaurants within ten minutes walk and St Peter's Square was twenty minutes walk.

Nothing bad to say. Just a normal 3* hotel.

Perfect location: 10 mins walk to Vatican city and only 3-4 mins walk to San Pietro train station. Very kind personnel, beautiful breakfast and bar terrace with a Basilica di San Pietro at a distance. Delicious Italian bakery for the breakfast and tasty cocktails at a bar. We definitely recommend this hotel!
