We've just returned from a short stay at the Antiqua Roma and it met all of our expectations. We could easily walk to all of the city's main attractions in under half an hour (some much nearer), but the building was situated far away enough to escape the crowds and provide a little peace and quiet. Our room was spacious and comfy - complete with four poster bed and free mini bottle of wine on arrival. Bathroom, although outside the room, was nice and clean, and having a sink in the room was really handy. Enrico was also extremely helpful in providing us with travel info and maps. All in all, really good value for money - would highly recommend staying here.

We stayed here for 3 night at the end of may. Enrico was super nice and friendly, provided us with free map and let us borrow several guidebooks. the room and bathroom were clean. the hotel location is good, as its really close to taxi, bus stops and Vatican. the neighborhood was good as well with several food places right next to it. One gotcha though is that it was loud. it is not very sound proof at all and you get a lot of street noise inside the room. We woke up several times a night by different noises, including the noise of the garbage pick up truck which made its round to this neighbor hood at 2AM. Its relatively cheap for being so close to everything and being in the nice part of town however if you are a light sleeper beware.

My boyfriend and I absolutely loved Antiqua Roma! This was our first time in Italy (my first time in Europe period) and I have never stayed in a B&B so I was a little skeptical. But all the hotels I looked at were pretty pricey and this place had great reviews so we decided to just go for it. It was everything we could have asked for. It's like a little apartment. The entire place was spotless and beautifully decorated. And the owner Enrico was the best! He was very hospitable and helpful throughout our whole stay. The room was ample size for both us plus all of our luggage. But the real treat was the balcony! (I think only the rooms with the private bathroom have this) Inside the room there are these huge doors that open up to a beautiful stone balcony overlooking the street. Even though you can't see a ton, I just loved it so much. We drank our wine out there every night we stayed. Not too mention, this place is the perfect location to walk to all the major attractions in Rome. There are also buses, taxis and the shuttle to the airport right around the corner. We couldn't have asked for more. No question, we will definitely return to Antiqua Roma next time we're in Rome!

The only things I can suggest to make this place better is having a refrigerator and coffeemaker for guests.

My partner and I went to Rome for her 30th birthday. We were a little concerned being a same sex couple staying in a double room within the vatican area, but we were made very welcome.
It felt like we were staying in someone's home, with lots of italian artefacts, paintings, books (which you could borrow). It was beautifully simple, yet authentic. The landlord, Enrico, was incredibly friendly, lending us a plug socket which allowed us to use our british gadgets and went out of his way to ensure we had all that we needed.
He made my partner's day when we returned to the B&B on the eve of her birthday to discover a little card and small birthday present along with a bottle of wine and cork screw. We were both really touched by his kindness. He made our stay in rome very special. We shall certainly return again.
Although there was no breakfast at the B&B literally the next building along was a cafe which served international breakfast for 8 euros which included coissant, scrambled eggs/ omlette and two coffees. We felt well set to go after that!!
The location is great..... to the right you make your way to the vatican and to the left to the bridge which takes you to the centre. It felt very safe at night walking home and everywhere you look (up) you see the most beautiful buildings and where ever you are heading to you often accidentally stumble across a beautiful fountain, statue or building.
My partner's birthday was brilliant in rome and was made extra special by Antiqua Roma..... so thank you very much... and we shall see you again
