The San Anselmo is a beautiful hotel in very quiet and peaceful area. Having read reviews prior to our visit we were concerned that the location might mean a long walk to the centre however we did not use buses/taxis at all and enjoyed walking to all the attractions we wished to visit. Many thanks for the prosecco and strawberries... More

We spent four nights here, and on arrival staff had kindly provided us with strawberries and prosecco on arrival and my husband had organised A giant rose to surprise me. This was lovely!

The San Anselmo Hotel is truly one of the most beautiful little hotels I have ever stayed in--and I will stay there again (after asking a few more questions about my room--see below). The hotel seems to radiate elegance--yet in a non-pretentious way. Located in one of the most beautiful neighborhoods of Rome, amongst mansions and embassies, you feel pampered... More

We had our first honey moon night at this hotel. And it couldn't be better! The staff was so attentive that sent us strawberries and prosecco - very gentle touch! More than this, it is a true small and sophisticated hotel: tastily decorated bedrooms in the style proposed and the bathroom was big and had a great jacuzzi. The location... More

The Hotel San Anselmo offers what can only be described as the perfect combination: a superb location nearly atop the Aventine Hill, near the Maltese Church with its famous "keyhole" view of St. Peter's; reasonable prices by Roman standards; and top-level service characterized by sprezzatura, humor, refinement, and courtesy. The rooms radiate cheer. Especially laudable is the detailed, hand-rendered wall... More
