Reviews of Fragrance Hotel St. Peter 3 stars

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.

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

Staff were so helpful

No evening food or beverage available

Breakfast was great. View was beautiful. Location was great. Good value.

Room was small but adequate for 4.

Nice location, good service, beautiful terrace.

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

Breakfast was amazing.

The comfort of the beds just far too hard. Like lying on a bed of bricks.

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.

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

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.

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 room was clean and modern, the air conditioning worked well and was individually adjustable, and the location was relatively close to St. Peter’s Basilica.

The soundproofing is extremely poor – the doors don’t block out any noise, and we could hear everything happening in the building. One evening, the rooftop terrace (where breakfast and dinner are served) was closed due to a private event. We weren’t informed about this in advance, which was frustrating, though not the worst part. The real issue was the noise: this is a small hotel where every sound carries, and we had to listen to people partying upstairs until 1 a.m. We didn’t get a single minute of rest. When we mentioned this to the hotel staff, their only response was a casual “sorry, the terrace will be open tomorrow.” It felt completely dismissive and unprofessional. Service throughout our stay was unimpressive. The breakfast was very basic and served in a glass enclosure that was uncomfortably hot – easily over 30°C inside. Overall, our stay was disappointing and far from relaxing. We definitely won’t be staying here again.

Location was very close to main attractions. Andrea at reception was very welcoming and helpful throughout our stay, and the breakfast was enjoyable and well-prepared.

Our initial room at the Roma Hotel was uncomfortably warm, as the air conditioning was not cooling properly. Despite our request to have it checked, we were told it was functioning normally. Unfortunately, we spent a sleepless night due to the heat. The following day, we requested a room change, which was thankfully accommodated, and we were finally able to rest. We recommend that hotel management inspect the thermostats, as the temperature readings appear inaccurate — our room felt much warmer than indicated. For example, while the thermostat displayed 18°C, our own temperature check showed it was actually 25°C.

The location was good, especially with a few minutes or half an hour walk towards the vatican city. There was near by restaurants to enjoy a night out or have lunch. Overall interesting experience.

Can't think of anything negative to say, except when i took a taxi from Rome Terminal (central train station). I was over charge by €6, i guess the driver was just in a bad mood. But that's no excuss to overcharger passengers.

The proximity to the vatican..

I ordered a balcony room, didn't get one..
