I recently completed a five-day stay (May 4-May 8 ) at Bogo Vaticano Guest House, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. The owner couple/operator had offered a perfect level of care and personal attention that you simply don’t get at other places. For some of examples, they helped us to find the best places to visit, how to purchase online tickets and even called taxi several times including airport. When we arrived, the room was absolutely spotless and was maintained beautifully throughout my entire five-day stay. If you are looking for a place, I highly recommend staying here. I will definitely be back!

The property was in easy walking distance of the vatican, other attractions where walkable for us but some people may prefer to use public transport. The room was modern with a great shower room and comfortable bed. I would of preferred proper cups instead of a single use cup, so we could have had a hot drink in the evening and coffee in the morning, but apart from this the property was ideal.

Room was clean, a bit small but expected with the bnbs in this area. Balcony was beautiful and spacious, you could see the Vatican and is about 20 feet away from it. 5 min walk from all the best restaurants and gelato/dessert shops! Staff was extremely helpful and waited for us outside to bring us in and were more than willing to provide information/had pamphlets in the shared space outside our door for exploring Rome. A bit noisy as it is an apartment complex but only during the day time. Overall a very pleasant stay!!

The room was clean & comfortable. Nothing fancy, but great for the price. The location was excellent, literally across the street from the Vatican. Easy to walk to see the sites. The owners were wonderful!! I can't say enough about how welcoming and gracious they were. They even called and arranged a taxi for us on our day of departure. I will definitely stay there on my next trip to Rome

Room was older but clean. Comfortable bed. Our room also had a couch - big enough to sleep on as needed. Bathroom was also very clean. Shower only - the glass doors were hard to close completely however. Overall, it was a nice stay. Nicolletta and her husband (I think they were the owners of the guest house complex) did a great job keeping everything clean and tidy.

The property is owned by some of the nicest people! They were extremely welcoming and greeted us for check in. The property itself is conveniently located which made exploring Rome very easy. However, the unit is average at best. The walls are paper thin and has very basic amenities (they do provide sample packet sizes of soaps but I do recommend bringing your own). If you're looking to start your day early and end it late, this place is perfect.

excellent experience near to vaticano

I am writing to express my gratitude for the excellent experience I had during my recent stay. The location of the property, just steps away from the Vatican Museums, was incredibly convenient and made my visit even more enjoyable. My stay was very pleasant due to the exceptional level of service provided. The accommodations were spacious, clean, and ensured a sense of security throughout my visit. Additionally, the surrounding area offered a variety of restaurants that contributed to a delightful experience. Thank you once again for your hospitality. I look forward to returning in the future.

Exceeded Expectations-Perfect Stay in Rome

Borgo Vaticano was honestly better than we expected. The room size was generous, especially by European standards. Check-in and check-out were both smooth and hassle-free. Nicoletta, the host, was fantastic—very attentive, friendly, and helpful throughout our stay. The place was spotless and well-maintained. The location is excellent—just a short walk to the Vatican Museums, and very close to both the bus and metro stations. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Rome!
