I traveled to Amalfi coast with my 18 years old son. If you are traveling with younger ones may be you need to get more close to Amalfi. The staff are super nice, friendly and helpful. They helped us to book a beach club, bus tickets and … Our room was opening straight into the dining area which wasn’t nice. We could hear people eating breakfast in the morning. The view of our room and the balcony was absolutely beautiful. Breakfast was good. This location is about 10 minutes with car away from the center of Amalfi but there’s a bus stop close to the property. Is there so many restaurants and shops around this place? not really. Few restaurants around and one shop close by that we could get water.

Excellent, Friendly and close to Saint Peters

From start to finish it was a wonderful experience. Room was spacious, emasculate and pretty. Bruno and Marco were always available to help in any way possible and always with a smile. The hotel is about 5 minute walk from Saint Peters square so very very convenient to the Vatican. Breakfast for 2 was 10€, fresh and copious with anything and everything to feed your hungry stomach. Will visit again, every time we return to Rome. A very big thanks to the people at Paolo II who made our trip effortless.

The staff was extremely helpful in providing walking directions as well as arranging transportation to our cruise ship. The breakfast was outstanding in the morning. Unfortunately, our trip was delayed by the airline due to a mechanical issue, so we didn't use the room the first night. Even though we let travelocity know, a refund could not be arranged.

We saw bugs during our stay. 3 times actually.. it was something looked like centipede… the room was hard to adjust the temperature of the room. It was VERY cold. The location is not too convenient if you are a traveller. Most of sight attractions ate far from the hotel.

The staff was so nice! I arrive super early they offered to have my room ready early but I told them to not be in a hurry I had an early tour so I just wanted to see if they can take care of my luggage and they said yes. Once I came back all of my stuff were inside the room. They were nice they rearranged for me transfer to the airport. It was a small hotel but it was a nice experience I wanted something close to the Basilica of St Peter and it was just a 10 min walk.

Hotel Paolo II was a pleasant surprise! I didn’t expect to find such a wonderful place in the Vatican City area so easily. I was there for a few days with my wife, and right from the checking in everything went smoothly. The hotel is located within an old existing housing apartment building and it is easily accessible by bus and taxis. Most importantly for visits to the Vatican it was walkable. We bought a three days ticket which we used to move around by bus, train or tram car, and to the city centre for other landmark locations such as the Colosseum, Spanish Steps, Piazza de la Republica, etc. breakfast wasn’t so great, but it was okay and the staff made it worth the expense. And then when we met Marcko, the manager, he elevated our experience to the next level! Among the recommended restaurants was the Ristorante Rex, which we tried out and we really enjoyed. Unfortunately, we also made use of the so-called self service laundry, and we did not quite like the service at all. In fact our clothes came back looking dirtier than when we handed them in. In any case, we found other places nearby and would definitely recommend this hotel for short stays.
