Great Deal!
I arrived waaay early, knowing that I had no hope of check in and just hoping to store my bag, but to my surprise the host showed up and gave me my room! After a sleepless night of travel that was incredible! The room was small and basic but it was clean and cute and perfect for me. The bed was very comfortable and warm (it’s cold in January), there was a full length mirror, a towel warmer, a rain shower head and a bidet. The only thing I missed was a hair dryer, but that’s no big deal. You might find the shower snug if you are generously proportioned but It was fine for me and even had a line to dry clothes, which I love. The common area also has a machine to make various coffee drinks. It’s fairly close to The Vatican, about a 40 minute walk to the train station and not as close to some of the historic sites as I thought it was when I booked, so keep that in mind if you don’t like walking long distances. But I had fun exploring the neighborhood (read: getting lost.) I also felt it was a safer neighborhood than the one closer to the train station, which, as a solo female traveler, is important to me. I thought this was a great deal for the price.

Best Hotel
The hotel is in a winning central location by close in walking distance to St. Peter Basilica, and Pantheon, and other major sightseeing. The room is spacious, the bedding is very comfortable. We will definitely stay here again next time when we are back to Rome. Anna is very helpful and accommodating.

This is not a hotel. There is no front desk, so it is necessary to contact a person to get the key to the building and the room. But the telephone number announced on the site is not working, I had to call Hoels.com office in London to get the right telephone number to contact a person in charge. It was raining when I arrived the building. I was desperate standing in from of a closed door. It was nothing but a luck, I met another traveler coming out from the building. The fellow traveler texted to the person in charge to inform that I had been in front of the door. It was a really terrible experience. On top of that, there was no heating in mid November. Bed cover was very thin, I was freezing. I trusted rating the hotel had, but there must be some tricks in this rating. I hope the ratings reflect the reality.

The lady who did our check in was very friendly, she provided a lot of helpful city information. The Location is perfect. I traveled with my 19 and 17 year old daughters; they loved the placed and we walked almost everywery from there. The airport shuttle is a couple of blocks away from there and only cost us 6euros per person to go to the airport.

AC no good and small shower. Otherwise ok
Our host Anna is very nice. However, the rooms A/C could not keep up with the heat load that Anna created by leaving the window of the room open all day. It wasn’t until about 300-400am that I stopped sweating. The shower is for children. Very small and the shower head is too low. If you are tall, you can’t stay here.

Would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Rome. It’s quiet enough so you can get a peaceful sleep despite being right in the center of Rome’s action.

Excellent quiet BB location (20 minutes walk to Piazza St.Pietro or the Vatican museum entrance), 7 minutes to Castel Sant'Angelo, 15 to Piazza Navone). Good shopping on the nearby Via Cola di Rienzo, including small supermarket. Coffee machine is available 24 hrs. Basic breakfast is at Le Lunch cafe behind the corner (Coffee, juice, fresh pastry of your choice. More options at additional charge). Staff is extremely helpful and easy to coordinate your arrival with (by phone, text, eMail and WhatsApp). Anna met us at the time of arrival and gave all necessary information, including options to arrange our departure (the easiest and least expensive turned to be from a nearby - 5 min. walk- stop of a shuttle bus to the airport). Overall - excellent experience!

Anna was amazing !!! The location is safe and superb. It’s in a quiet area to get a good nights rest after all of the walking. Toom was very clean and the beds are comfortable. Loved the spacious bathroom (all of the bathrooms in our other hotels in Italy have been a lot smaller ) The free cappuccino is an added bonus too.

We booked to stay at the property whilst in Rome for Italy v Ireland in the Six Nations. The property was ideally situated with all the major sites within a 30min walk, we even walked to the stadium from the apartment. The rooms were excellent, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was provided in a cafe around the corner and was very good. Throughout the whole booking process, correspondence with our host Anna was excellent and she answered any questions we had and booked us taxi's to and from the airport. I would certainly stay in Castel Sant Angelo Inn if visiting Rome again.

Superb location, easily walkable to most areas of interest in Rome yet a quiet room, quiet street and neighborhood. Anna was a wonderful host, friendly, welcoming, and helping us with everything we needed, going above and beyond. The room while not large was well thought out and had everything we needed, including a great shower. It's important to understand that this is not a hotel, staff is not present on the premises at all times, but Anna is always reachable. An Italian breakfast of coffee, juice and pastry is provided by the Inn at a cafe around the corner. We didn't love the cafe, so we went elsewhere for breakfast. I hope to return to Rome, and would definitely stay at the Castel Sant'Angelo Inn again.

Excellent stay in a good location
This is a guesthouse in a building shared by other occupants and not a stand alone hotel. Not that it makes much of a difference. The antique lift is very quaint. The host, Anna, is very welcoming. She does not stay on the premises though, so if you need help beyond office hours, you have to reach her on the phone (we did not face any issue during our stay). The room and bathroom are very clean and modern. One of the few places which provided an electric kettle. Staple breakfast available (bread, fruits, cake, juice). The location was quite good - 10 min walk from the Vatican and Piazza Navona. There is a cafe called Stop and Go by the main road which not only had good food, but was also quite economical.

We enjoyed our stay and were greeted by a friendly, sweet, professional Anna on the day of our arrival. The Inn is in a good location, just across the river from the cute Italian streets lined with shops and restaurants with patio seating. We walked almost everywhere - Vatican/St. Peter's Basilica/Sistine Chapel, Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain and Pantheon. (Must take a taxi to the Coliseum, it cost us about $13). We enjoyed the walking, taking photos and shopping along the way to all other sites. The hotel room was comfortable, clean and quiet. The breakfast was convenient. Coffee was a machine that made fair coffee. This made it convenient when you want coffee at other times besides breakfast. Food was mostly packaged with one fruit tart or cake placed out daily. It seems a bit impersonal to us but that really didn't bother us. All in all we had a great experience and would definitely stay here again.

Lovely stay.Had everything and more.Very good value. Free snacks and coffee available throughout the day. (Same as breakfast) Good communication when needed from hosts before and during stay without being intrusive. Only slight downside was the fridge in the room , which, although a nice idea, can make some noise occasionally at night which could affect light -sleepers. Overall a lovely experience, much better than big hotels in my opinion! Thank you Castel Sant'Angelo Inn for a lovely experience.

Nice Hotel Located To Lots Of Local Attractions
The hotel is nice, a little trouble to find at first our taxi driver was unsure which door it was. Staff was very helpful and offered to help us find restaurants and other attractions in the area. This is the first hotel we stayed at where the staff is not onsite 24/7 but it worked out fine. Only downside to the stay was no TV, we stayed 3 days said it was going to be fixed first night but nothing was ever done.

Perfect B&B in a fabulous location
An excellent little B&B perfectly placed for visiting central Rome. Very quiet, clean and comfortable. Anna, our host, couldn’t have been more helpful with information about getting around the city, and providing breakfast and little extras that made our stay perfect. They changed the system of bringing breakfast to your room while we were there and installed a coffee machine and we could help ourselves to breakfast when it suited us from a small area by the entrance. The room was comfortable, clean and modern. Free very fast wi-fi was a bonus as we couldn’t find any English tv channels to watch but this wasn’t an issue as we weren’t there to watch tv. We would thoroughly recommend this for a stay in the beautiful city of Rome!

Lovely stay
A friend and I stayed here at the beginning of April for 3 nights. The hotel was a little hard to find but a part from that we had a brilliant time. The man who welcomed us (sorry I can’t remember his name) was so helpful and really looked after us, he showed us on the map where everything was and if we needed anymore help just to ask. We had breakfast bought to us every morning which was brilliant too. Our room was clean and bed was very comfortable. It was my birthday while I was staying here so he had bought me a cake too, which was so kind of him. If I go back to Rome I will definitely stay here again. Thank you for making our stay and my birthday extra special and memorable. Highly recommend to anyone.

Excellent accommodation in a good location
We booked the Inn based the reviews we had read and everything still exceeded our expectations. We stayed for 3 nights and were greeted on arrival by "Stefano" who went out of his way to explain everything about the Inn security, the room facilities, restaurant recommendations and provided a map of the city. Nothing was ever too much trouble for him during our stay he was "brilliant" at making us feel special, organising taxi transfers to and from the airport (just email a few days before you leave), providing umbrellas for the days where rain was expected, checking opening times for Museums etc. I should also mention the amazing breakfasts he delivered to your room at the time of your choice each day, there was such a good selection we didn't need lunch.

Great Stat
Our host met us upon arrival and showed us to our rooms. We were expecting this to be an actual hotel as opposed more of an air b’n’b style accomodation, but we were given a very warm welcome. Our rooms were very adequate, clean and comfortable. Our only complaint was the lack of working tv channels when back in the evening? Breakfast was continental and bought to your room at a pre agreed time. The location was good, despite not being in the heart of busy streets, we were 20 mins from.m the Vatican City and 15 mins from the more Roman side of the city. Great value and welcoming host in clean, comfortable and secure setting.

Exceptional hospitality in Rome
Stefano put my mind at ease with easy inexpensive airport shuttle transit with pick up and drop off points within blocks. Thoughtful hospitality with very clean and safe accommodations in any major city center is never assumed but Stefano delivers and exceeded expectations in every way. Great recommendations for nearby eateries made us feel like "locals" with insider information. Do not overlook Stefano's Gelato recommendation - consider Chocolate Rum, Ricotta/Candied Pear, coconut and Pistachio :) Every eatery recommendation was 9-10 so far as we're concerned.
