San Giovanni Hotel Guide - Historic Hotels in San Giovanni, Rome

"I wouldn’t stay here again, but there were a few positives. First, this is advertised as a bed and breakfast, but there really isn’t a proper breakfast. The only thing provided was a coffee machine in the room and supposedly some pastries either in the mini fridge or in the hallway—I didn’t find any during my stay. There is a small café next door where you can buy coffee and breakfast, which is what I ended up doing. Access to the property is complicated. The first time you arrive, you have to buzz through a gate to enter, then go up a large set of stairs to reach the terrace apartments. After that, you use a code to retrieve your keys. From there, you’ll be carrying three keys plus a card: one for the main gate, one old-style key for the entry door, another for your room, and a card that must be inserted near the light switch to activate electricity. It’s manageable, but definitely inconvenient. The room itself was small but clean. The shower is very tight, though the water pressure was actually quite good. The location is a plus and makes it easy to get around. There is a taxi stand a block away. The host was friendly and very responsive to my questions, which I appreciated. The woman cleaning the rooms showed us around and helped us settle in. Overall, between the complicated access setup and small amenities, it didn’t meet expectations for me. This would be a great place for a backpacker to stay as luggage is hard to get up the stairs."

"Continental breakfast "

"Breakfast is plentiful. The breakfast room can be noisy. The hotel hosts large groups. "

"Very nice and clean hotel, also staff were nice and professional, we just want to specifically recognize Ana from breakfast buffet she was very nice and friendly. We definitely recommend this hotel for your family vacation."

"It’s a very basic hotel. I stayed with two friends. We knew that we would only come back to the hotel to sleep because we were going to be touristing all day, so this was a fine hotel. Front desk is very friendly rooms are very clean. Hotel is located in a suburban Neighbourhood so it was pretty quiet. In terms of location, however you can use the bus to get where you need to go, but it is kind of far from the central city. We also had to use bus or Uber to take us to the main city. Yes the room is small and yes, the showers are small, but it’s objective was literally just to house us for the days that we were going to be in Rome and that was fine. "

"If you get the curly haired Moroccan looking chap prepare for hitting your head against a wall Getting what I can only describe as a flannel as a towel then pretending there no desposit after 2 days is ridiculous Apart from that you pay for what you get "

"Very clean and tidy hotel, modern, we had the room with the hot tub and the room was a very good size, the hot tub was lovely, bed slightly firm for my liking but that's personal taste, breakfast was enjoyable every morning up stairs on the top floor. Hotel was within walking distance of the Metro A, and only a 30 minutes walk from Rome Termini which we did to and from the hotel, I have already recommended this hotel to friends and would stop here again without hesitation "
