Claudia was the most helpful host. She was attentive, checking in regularly and giving wonderful advice and recommendations on local restaurants and shopping. The location of the apartment rooms are perfect. Five minutes from St Peters Square, a minute walk from the metro and surrounded with excellent bars and restaurants. The room was super comfortable and clean with everything we needed. Even complimentary coffee! Would definitely recommend staying here, total value for money and we would certainly return.

Vatican Museums

The Vatican Museums are undoubtedly a must-visit. You’ll find these hallowed halls housed in the holy Vatican City. Perhaps that’s why the works here are of such a godly nature – expect true masterpieces (Ever heard of the Sistine Chapel?) and a beauty so supreme it can’t even be tainted by the crowds of trampling tourists.

So much, we took the guided tour, yes very informative, but skimmed so much to fit within the time allowed, massive crowds, next time maybe we will just get entry to take the experience slower. but worth the visit whichever way it is done I am sure.

Probably important to preface this with: I'm not an art person. But I thought we couldn't miss the masterpieces contained here. Turns out, we could have. We went during closing hours for "fewer crowds" but still the sistine chapel was an unpleasant experience. They really try to shove as many people as possible into the place and I was having none of it. Once you go through to the other side of the partition it's much more enjoyable as they won't be barking at you to shove in shove in. It was just not worth it for us, even with a guided tour so we knew what we were seeing.

I visited the Vatican Museum here, not the Vatican itself.

I visited the Vatican Museum here, not the Vatican itself. The Museum has much incredible art, and I booked a walking tour. By the end of the tour (two hours later), I was understandably tired. Most of what I can remember consists of dusty, half-lit rooms, which didn't help. I was glad to get some fresh air. Be aware that, being close to the Vatican and the Piazza S. Pietro, this neighbourhood is a magnet for junk sellers and scammers. Be extra careful here. The police will do nothing about them.

I've been several times before, but my husband had not, so we booked a group guided tour with Viator. I can say that the Catholic Church has RUINED the Vatican museum and the Sistine Chapel with their greed by shoving 25,000-45,000 people per DAY through there with very little time to see anything!! It was NEVER like this before and I'm appalled that it's become so disgustingly greedy to do this! Our tour started at 2:45 and it was SO crowded and SO rushed that we literally had 3 minutes in the Sistine Chapel, which is at the end of the tour, before the nasty guards literally turned all of the lights off and shoved us out the door!!! Can't miss your 5 pm espresso apparently!!! We were literally crowded shoulder to shoulder with others throughout a great deal of the museum and the chapel!!!

Book skip the line or a tour of the museums, Sistine Chapel and Basillica as one tour, if you book sistene chapel and basillica as a tour you do not have to wait in the huge security line for the Basillica (although it is free if you choose the latter) .

Vicolo Navona was right in the center of the sites we most wanted to see. It was close to more than three bus stops and an easy walk to Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, the Vatican and Vatican museums, and to Travesevere. It was very clean, spacious and well supplied. Eleonora was a delight to deal with.

Lovely comfortable guesthouse in a great location- 5 minutes to the Vatican Museums entrance, 10 minutes to St Peters, and with a metro about 150 metres away. Spotless, very comfortable and cosy, the room was spacious and had everything we needed, including a little fridge and a kettle. The area is full of cafes, restaurants, supermarkets and bakeries. Would highly recommend and would stay here again if we return to Rome.

“The location is excellent, within walking distance to both the Vatican Museums and St. Peter’s Basilica. Instead of walking all the way to the center of Rome, take an Uber, and on the way back, walk through the city and visit each tourist spot one by one — it was a fantastic experience for us. The accommodation is clean; the building is a bit old and historic, but it’s not really an issue.”

We were very satisfied with the accommodation. Excellent location - right next to the metro stop, close to the Vatican Museums, St. Peter's Square within 10 minutes. Despite this, a very quiet location. Excellent restaurants and small supermarkets nearby. Larger accommodation, suitable for larger groups, or even 2 families, 2 separate bathrooms, well-equipped kitchen. Minimalistic, but very functionally furnished, clean. Nice and helpful hostess. I believe this was not the last time we were here.

You cannot avoid the crowd. The best suggestion to visit Vatican museums and St Peter's is to take a guided tour. To visit the Colosseum, book your tickets in advance over the internet and skip the line. Other attractions are easy to visit.
