This AirBnb is close to shops, popular piazza's and attractions. All of the staff is very helpful and the lady that cleaned our room was excellent. Breakfast was included and it was delicious. We were also able to walk for about 25 mins to meet out tour to Tuscany for the day. I'm a very light sleeper and none of this affected my husband but our room was just above a very popular sandwich shop which could be noisy at times and then there are food deliveries to the same shops quite early in the morning which you can also hear. There is also a store front under construction in the same building and they think it's acceptable to start drillling before 8 a.m. The shower is in the bedroom and the glass in not frosted so if you are travelling with anyone besides your partner it could be a little awkward. We did really enjoy how spacious and clean the room was and there is an elevator in the building which is a huge plus. We felt safe and secure in the building with the added features of security code to get it and card tap to get to reception. We enjoyed our stay here and appreciate all the recommendations give to us!

Dear Jonathan Stoute, You stayed at Relais Rione Ponte on April 9-12, 2024 and we thank you for your feedback.However, we believe that our boutique guesthouse has been mistaken with another property, may be in Florence?First of all, we are not an AirBnb house or appartment but a boutique guesthouse with 9 rooms, offering tailor -made hospitality: concierge and reception services, daily houskeeping service in a fantastic location around Piazza Navona, in Rome.Breakfast is not offered or included, we offer free daily coffee and capuccino with biscuits in the room or in the Lounges.There are no construction in our building, neither in Via Zanardelli 20 or in Piazza di Tor Sanguigna.Moreover, we do not have showers in the bedrooms. Showers are inside the bathrooms and all our bathrooms have a wooden door or thick door definitely not in glass.We remain at your complete disposal and look forward to welcoming you in a near future.Kind regards,

Couldn’t ask for a better experience in Rome. First of all, the staff was fenomenal. Laura gave us the best welcome to Rome and recommendations for how to tour, attractions, and where to eat. Bea, and another gentleman we interacted with were fantastic as well. The room was very nice, beautiful and clean. The accommodations were spot on. Our only feedback would be to upgrade the WiFi service to a faster one as many international travelers depend on it. The hotel is located in the heart of Rome and it make us feel we were locals having the best time of our lives. I would recommend this hotel to everyone!

Fantastic location, plenty of options for food,espresso,apertivos, and of course Piazza Navona! Plenty big room with huge bathroom. Parking is across the bridge at the Parcheggio but only a 10 minute stroll no big deal, don’t expect street parking it won’t happen. Would happily stay again.

If you are able to get a room at Relais Rione Ponte, book it! Such a wonderful place to stay in the heart of Rome but what stands out the most are the incredibly helpful and responsive staff. We arrived in Rome very late and were a last minute booking and they treated us like they had been waiting all year for our visit! Everything was wonderful and the location was perfect. Book now, and you won’t be disappointed. We hope to come back one day !

The perfect base for exploring
Really lovely little hotel in a perfect location. Super easy to walk to all the sights of Rome, with lots of excellent restaurants close by. Clean, comfortable room - the bathroom in our room was quite small with no window / fan so you did occasionally get a damp smell. But didn’t impact on our enjoyment of our trip. Would definitely stay again!

Lovely large clean room and bathroom. Staff very helpful providing info on nearby breakfast, restaurants and places to see. Great location next to Piazza Novona where you can relax and have a drink or meal. Central location surrounded by good restaurants with all main sights within reasonable walking distances. Reception on level 2 up marble stairs with old style lift which was fine once you knew this. A bit noisy but safe area with good secure access. Would return.

Great room with excellent location!
This is a great hotel that is centrally located in a very nice neighborhood. It is very close to the Piazzza Nuvona, Pantheon and Trevi Fountain. There are a lot of great restaurants close by along with excellent shopping etc. The front desk staff was awesome! We had a problem with the A/C and they responded quickly. My only complaint was the size of the room. It is much smaller than the picture of the one we booked. This is Rome so you expect a small room of course; but, even smaller than normal. The room was very clean and the bathroom actually had a nice size and very modern. Great location though for your stay in Rome!

Relais Rione Ponte was a perfect location. It was everything we dreamed of for our elopement trip to Rome. We flew into town from Chicago via London Heathrow. Our luggage was lost and missing for 36 hours. Relais staff worked incredibly hard to contact the airport and ensure that we got our luggage as quickly as possible. Laura, Sylvia and the rest of the staff were personable and easy to talk with. They gave wonderful recommendations and never hesitated to help us with anything we needed. We felt safe and valued as customers at this property. Everything was walkable, and it's proximity to Piazza Navona, and bus stops was perfect. We would recommend this location to anyone!

Me and my fiancée stayed at this hotel for a weekend away in early December. We had a brilliant stay. The hotel is small, only a corridor of rooms and it is located on the second floor. It is quiet and centred perfectly near all the sites that you would want to see in Rome. The rooms were clean and the receptionists were really helpful providing maps and lists of good restaurants. Would definitely recommend staying here if you want a discreet, accessible, clean, small boutique hotel.

Do not recommend
When we arrived, our receptionist was Laura, she is a nice person, and the hotel is in a good location. But we had a bad impression with the entrance to the building and also with the room. The bathroom has no ventilation and the air conditioning did not work properly in our room. When we first asked (on Saturday) the receptionist to fix it (I think her name is Madelaine) - she said the ventilation was at minimum and then set it to maximum ventilation. We set the AC to 65 degrees Fahrenheit, 18 Celsius, but the temperature inside the room remained at 76F, 24C. Then, on Sunday, we talked to her again (same person), then she said that on Monday she could call a technician to fix it, and then she offered us a bottle of Prosecco (of course, so we could relax). But... we did not see her again for the rest of 5 days at the thotel the technician never came and we spent 7 days like that :((. We were celebrating our 20th anniversary (and we left a message mentioning this when we booked) but we didn't even hear "Congratulations". Usually, in good hotels, people greet you when you arrive and also offer you a glass of Prosecco (at least!) to celebrate important dates. So I don't know if people staying at this facility have never been to really good hotels because I always check the reviews and if there was a review like mine before booking I would not book this hotel for sure! In a city like Rome, with so many options including at Piazza Navona, I do not recommend this hotel.

Dear Esterlitz, We are very sorry to learn about your dissatisfaction which turns to be a real surprise since the four of us Eugenia, Beatrice, Silvia and Laura, saw and talked to you and your husband every morning during a 7 day stay.First of all, we are not a hotel but a boutique guesthouse, that offers attentive and knowleadgeable first class service, elegant and comfortable rooms in an ideal location to explore Rome.The entrance is typical of a 17th century building in an ancient city like Rome but there is no lobby or hotel entrance.The Superior Room that was assigned, was not ready by 9.00 am when you arrived. We understand it may be fustrating after an intercontinental flight and this is why sometimes our Guests book the previous night in order to have a guaranteed early check in. Nonetheless, we gave top priority to your room and you checked in by noon, before regular check in time.As per the glass of prosecco upon arrival, I offered an expresso since it was early morning and you mentioned to be tired. Therefore, I welcomed you and accommodated you in the Lounge. Our Lounge has a large comfortable sofa where in fact, you could lay down and sleep until the room was ready.Then a bottle of prosecco was offered as we usually do, for this special occasion, your anniversary and not to make you relax, also because air conditioning was working properly specially considering it was late October and temperatures were under 25/26 degrees Celsius (No Fahrenheit) However, the technician came and checked to make sure its setting was correct and according to the recent instructions regarding limit to air conditioning and heating.We are sorry that our Hospitality did not meet your expectations. In fact, Rome offers several options of accommodations including many five star hotels.Kind regards,

Only complaints I had (and they are minor) were I Wish the AC in the rooms could go down a couple more degrees as it takes a while to cool off, and when we checked in the toilet paper roll was almost empty and we didn’t notice they don’t provide an extra one so we had to go buy one for that night. But like I said those things are no big deal. I would absolutely stay again. Very well priced also.

Dear Zachery, Thank you for your sharing your experience with us. We are pleased to learn that you have had a nice experience overall. We are deeply sorry about the toilet paper issue. Each bathroom is equipped with enough tp and we are sorry for this forgetfulness. Our housekeeper is new here and she still need to practise. Regarding AC, we are sorry it was not sufficient. Unfortunately we are not allowed to set the temperature lower than we already have, due to a Government rule. To be said, we are experiencing a boiling hot summer this year, so we understand that might be not enough. However, we have already checked the operation of our air conditioning system, which is regular. We do hope to have the chance to welcome you again at our property anytime soon. Best Regards

Dear Peter, thank you so much for your nice words to our Staff. We always try our best to make each stay as pleasant as possible. As for breakfast, With Covid19 social distance protocols Relais Rione Ponte had to match the new rules with further special attention to our Guests' needs and preferences. Italian breakfast service was due to be suspended and we decided to offer more flexibility booking a Room Only rate in order to allow our Guests to organize their mornings depending on each travel program, like early Vatican tours, early departures or simply, different expectations. We offer tea and coffee facilities in each room, with local biscuits or muffins for a quick snack; Also, we are delighted to offer a complimentary espresso or cappuccino as well when you ask us in the morning; it always come with some buiscuit! American coffee and biscuits are offered complimentary in the Lounge We have carefully listed a few suggestions where you can go for the type of breakfast you prefer, from a traditional Italian cafe for just an espresso and cornetto to an American or English full one, nearby and in the different neighbourhood. We do hope to welcome you in a near future. Best regards

Laura was such an excellent host. We would return back to this boutique hotel.. just because of her attention to details. The room was like an apartment and very well assorted. Wifi and power outlets worked perfectly. Walking distance to old Rome attractions.. except for the Coliseum. Trust me.. take a bus or taxi to The Coliseum. Plenty of taxis outside the hotel. Pharmacy nearby for your covid test too. Location is perfect, very lit.. and neighborhood felt safe at night. Other parts of Rome at night.. seems a bit dark. AC worked great.. first night they was an issue.. but once it worked.. it was perfect for warm days in May. Highly recommend. Keep in mind this is sort of like an AirB&B.. don't expect hotel decor like a Park Hyatt. Its a good value property, well located and well operated. This is perfect for families.

This hotel is centrally located and ideal for those spending time in the city center. It is small and does not include breakfast (disclosed ahead of time, so wasn’t anticipated) and the bathroom was particularly tight without room for hanging bath towels or toiletry bag, we had to request toilet paper multiple times and the small shelf in our shower was falling off the wall - BUT the woman who handled our check-in took time to orient us to the area and suggested a small museum we really enjoyed (Doria Pamphilj gallery) and again, the true magic of this spot is its location (which happens to be right around the corner from Piazza Navona). Another plus - air conditioning which, on a warm day, is a welcome relief from the Roman sun!

Dear Jennifer, We thank you for taking the time to share your experience at Relais Rione Ponte. We are glad to hear that you have enjoyed our location and our hospitality. We are extremely sorry to learn that perhaps it was not clear the fact of being a breakfast excluded offer. Most reservations at the moment are "Room only" which means that it does not include breakfast. This information should be written in the confirmation you received. At check in time, we give further details about the area showing you in the map, including breakfast options, restaurants, cafès or landmarks ( like we did with Doria Pamphilj Gallery) among other important sites to visit during your stay.

Location and comfort.
Look at the pictures to find it. Entrance between a carry out panini place and restaurant, mini-market on corner. Two minutes walk to Piazza Navona. Taxi stand on corner. Good WiFi. Gracious hostess.

Lovely room in a fabulous location
Had a fabulous trip to Rome, beautiful weather and hotel was in an excellent location. Our plane was late but Pino was waiting for us to give us any info we needed. The room was a deluxe double, spacious had everything we needed really - it was a perfect spot to have as our base. Very comfortable bed only negative is that the noise from outside is very loud - traffic, bottle bins being emptied, people shouting at 2.30am! I would recommend as a place to stay - there are lots of bars and restaurants very close by so it doesn’t matter that there are no facilities in the hotel.

Dear Emma, thank you so much for your review and your nice words. We are happy that you have appreciated our property, the central location and the staff. We are sorry about the noise from the street. All our rooms are provided with soundproof windows and doors but being in the centre of a big city surely doesn't help. We do hope to welcome you again in a near future. Best Regards

The Guesthouse is right across from entrance into Piazza Navona where there are many shops and restaurants. You are in walking distance of Vatican, Pantheon, San Angelo, Trevi fountain, Spanish Steps and much more. This was our second stay at this guesthouse and the staff is wonderful, accommodating, speaks English, and I would definitely stay here again.

This boutique hotel has terrific location. Near cafes and restaurants. Very safe area. There is a tiny elevator in the building (very European elevator). The room was very clean and quiet. We were greeted immediately upon our arrival and offered a cup of espresso (which was so good). We will book this hotel when we return to Rome! Great stay!

Fantastic location near Piazza Navona and gateway to most of the sites to see in Rome plus amazing restaurants. But the best part of staying at Relais Rione Ponte was Laura, who kept us aware of essential arrival information, guided us to COVID testing, arranged pick up at Termini, and generally was someone you can count on for navigating Rome. Super experience and would definitely recommend!
