Hotel Il Cantico St. Peter

Very clean and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Location to Vatican City was amazing.

Affordable nice place when every other hotel in central Rome is absurdly overpriced. I had a good rate, and the room was modern and clean, more or less. My bed was one of those overly firm, cheap feeling mattresses. The shower had a significant amount of mold stains, and the shower door was falling apart almost. Water pressure not too good. Very small bath towels, and old and worn. They are not much bigger than a hand towel. Smaller towel I ever saw at a hotel. The patio is a total delight to see theough the glass door. It must be nice to sit out there. Very attractive patio. With an amazing rolling metal door that can close to block out morning light and for safety. The entire room is operated by well-working, modern switches. Excellent modern lighting. A major downside is that the hotel is on the OTHER side of Saint Peter Basilica. There is no Metro there. There is another train line though, not sure how that train works though. The walk from the Basilica is not short, but not too bad. 20 minutes? You will likely have to take taxis or busses. Most people would probably not like walking to the hotel late at night. But I was grateful for a decent clean modern place, priced at around €140. The savings were worth it to me. The nighttime desk guy was AMAZINGLY HELPFUL. I forgot the gentleman's name though. He helped me figure out what to do regarding closed Trenitalia tracks causing crazy routes to Assisi. And he assisted me regarding rental car possibilities etc.

Room was cleaned daily. Friendly staff.

The hotel is near the Vatican. Our room was very nice and had a patio with table and chairs which was quite unexpected. Breakfast was quite good with a variety of choices and great coffee. Staff was very helpful. Only drawback was hair dryer quite working.
