Great location near Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, Piazza Navona. Very nice, comfortable room - only four rooms, so service is very personal. Marcela was incredibly helpful with directions, ordering taxis, arranging tour of Vatican, car service from airport, recommending good restaurants (many nearby). Would strongly recommend - location and price were very good. More

This very nice guest house is hidden in a building on a corner of Via del Corso. You have to go in the side entrance and up some stairs to a small elevator. The elevator stops between floors, get off at 2nd floor and then you go up 1/2 story to the door of La Papessa. The people that greet... More

This guesthouse is small, but so centrally located to everything. We didn't use public transport for a stay in Rome. The staff were so friendly and helpful with everything, they couldn't have done anything more. They organised our taxi transfer to and from Fiumicino Airport, and our pick up was from the Avis depot in the car park. We were... More

Several resturants just outside. The hotel has only four rooms making the service very personal. It is three flors up and there is a small lift for one person, but... More

Just returned from the best city – Rome! We stayed there 5 nights at La Papessa Guest House in Feb 2012 and it was excellent! First, this B&B has a brilliant location. Most of the main sights are within reasonable walking distance: Colosseum and Forum about a 15 minute walk, the Trevi Fountain about a 5 minute walk, the Panthenon... More

We spent 6 nights at La Papessa and just returned home yesterday. When we arrived at 11:00 pm, the owner and his wife greeted us, helped us with our bags and showed us to our room. We were VERY pleased and surprised with their kindness at such a late hour. In the morning, we woke up and went to the... More

I recently spent just under a week at La Papessa, which turned out to be a charming and well situated B&B, with equally as charming staff. Overcoming a few minor difficulties with the room- due to my disability, and not the fault of the hotel to be noted - the staff were overly helpful in making my stay an enjoyable... More

The wonderful Pantheon is just 5 minutes walking distance, the Colisseum 15 mins and Trevi Fountain approx 4 mins (go in the evening - the lighting is great).
