Good value budget hotel
Good value and great location close to the Vatican. Very clean and Vincenzo was helpful. Only complaint is that it is super noisey. I'm a deep sleeper and slept ok, not ideal for light sleepers.

Affordable, good staff members, close to Vatican
We had a one night here before moving to another place but the room was clean and tray table with hot teapot was just what we needed for hot coffee in the morning. For a decent price along with spacious room, table with hot pot and cups and free wifi, I was satisfied.
Verified Hotels.com guest review

4/10 Fair

Near Vatican, expect nothing but a decent room.
If you expect nothing, you'll leave satisfied. Except for wifi in the room, they do not offer any of the services they claim. Most notably, do not rely upon them for any transpo to or from airport or any other place for that matter. Perhaps such services may have been available to those who speak Italian. attempting to communicate in English is consistently unreliable. Only one person speaks English, he rarely answers the cell phone. And to date has not responded to email. Why stay there? PROXIMITY. Charming 10 minute walk to San Pietro, the Vatican and a couple of millennia of history packed into 120+ acres. If you are happy with a decent room near the Vatican and want nothing else from your hotel, this place is for you.

Great stay close to St. Peter's Basilica
We had a great time staying at Al Ponte del Papa. It was easy to find (just look for the number 62 because there isn't a large sign with the name) and perfect for us. The bathroom was small but that's typical of Italy. The location was perfect for us because we were attending a wedding at St. Peter's Basilica. Be prepared to pay in euros and there is a city tax on top of that. We thought the price was more than fair and would come back again.

Mixed
Stayed here one night. Room was clean but the room was woren and the mattress was thin. Breakfast was also not what I was expecting, it was a croissant in an air compressed plastic with a tiny square box of orange juice. Also, I had to share a shower and the water pressure was weak. Traffic was loud through the windows in the front of the room. However, the owner (guy) was beyond helpful and went out of his way to make me feel at home. The location to the Vatican is also perfect and a short walk away. Because of his great service And perfect location, I would consider staying here again.

Nice Bed & Breakfast close to Vatican & Saint Pete
The staff treated us like family. They went above the call of duty by ironing our sheets, and leaving cake and wine for New Years Eve.

Horrible neighbors but 56 euro a night....
We stayed a total of 6 nights. There were 2 days breakfast was not placed in our room and 1 day that it was not cleaned (not counting sunday). The majority with the issues were not with the staff but with the other guests. one lady was pounding on the bathroom door while my wife was showering because she wanted to use it and wanted my wife to get out. Another time, one of their teenage kids peed all over the toilet seat and didnt bother to clean it before i went in. They would do obnoxious things like this all the time. The staff was very nice, and the location is great. If you decide to book here, and get a room with a shared bathroom keep in mind you are at the mercy of the other tennants.

Arianna and Massimiliano were wonderful. Very friendly, very helpful and personable. The ownership, however changed hands during my stay. That was very strange. I met new owners, Francisco and Vincenzo and they seemed nice. I liked the location being neat the Vatican. Getting to the center of the old city is no problem; about 30 on foot. Also good connection by bus number 46 to Piazza Venezia. From there walk to everything.

Great Location • Good Price
As an American, everything was a little smaller than I'm used to & comfortable with. Rooms are small & shared shower is tiny. The girl at front desk was very nice & accommodating. It is located very close to the Vatican. It is a nice place (Especially for the cost) The only things I would change... ~ A/C!!! I'm from Florida, which gets very hot like Rome. Only difference is that every building in FL has A/C. ~ Better sign on front. It was difficult to find. If I had been driving, I could have driving right by. Overall - Good experience & friendly staff. It was right next to where we wanted to be.

great hospitality
The hosts are WONDERFUL and made us very glad that we chose to stay here. In addition to being very friendly, they were so accommodating, even letting us use their wireless printer and try a slice of something delicious they made for lunch one day. While the location is a bit far from the center, they provide you with helpful bus information. We enjoyed being close to the Vatican, since we spent most of a day there. There's also a great pizza place just minutes away, if you feel too tired at the end of a long day of walking to go far for dinner. The room and bathroom are small, but for the rate, it's an incredible value given the hospitality that comes with it. Highly recommended!

Fantastic Price, Clean Rooms
We loved our stay at Al Ponte del Papa B&B, the hosts were pleasant and have taken decent care of the property. The location is a plus, considering it is right next to the vatican. But for other attractions in the city, you have to take a bus. It is a small place with very few rooms, and sometimes hard to find unless you are careful. Additionally, since the owners are not there all the time holding luggage may be a challenge after you checkout and have sometime before you head out of the town.

Good, but there are
The hotel was pretty much in line with other reviews, but there are some surprising things to consider before making a reservation: 1. free parking means actually "park yourself in the street", and the nearby place is not guaranteed - it's Rome. 2. no a/c, and the ceiling fan is so weak that it produces more noise than cooling.

Brilliant stay!!!!
We had an amazing time at Al Ponte Del Papa! We were welcomed by the staff and made to feel at home as soon as we arrived. The room was brilliant value for money as it was so big and was kept immaculate. I would definitely recommend to a friend and can't wait to come back!

Hard to find but very nice
Very small 'hotel' walking distance from Vatican. Staff fairly friendly but their English is very poor. Breakfast does not amount to much. The room, however, had great character. No proper air conditioning but a fan above bed. Road outside very noisy, all night! But for the price it is very worth it.
