Absolutely wonderful. Excellent location and the price is not too bad either. Their suite is cozy and has a nice setting. I would certainly book here upon my next trip. Highly recommend the place. More

The best choice we made in our Italian holiday. Staff were fantastic, especially Massimo , booking process with Michelle was excellent as we had to book an extra room for an additional family member. Nothing was too much trouble. Metro practically at the door, Vatican around the corner and St Peter's a block away. Clean Quite at night, and free... More

I stayed at this B&B for 3 nights in August with my 2 year old daughter, mother-in-law and husband. I have never stayed in a B&B before so I was somewhat unsure of what to expect. The location really could not be more convenient. It's located a block away from the Vatican and walking distance to all the major tourist... More

Once we got checked in at our pre-determined time the B&B was lovely. The concierge could not have been more helpful and friendly. He even carried our bags from one location to another for us and directed us to all the sites and recommended some excellent restraunts. The room was exceptionally clean and well proportioned. The kitchen facilities were great... More

We ended up having 2 rooms as the quad was booked. Comfortable rooms although an extra pillow and blanket would have been nice.Rooms were very clean, showers are small!! Breakfast ok, we brought along peanut butter, which helped with our toast in the mornings, the fresh fruit was not exactly fresh, cereal and some kind of tart and bundt cake... More

Alitalia lost our luggage soon as we arrived in Rome, the guys at the counter called on our behalf every day, sometimes waiting for half an hour on the phone as the airline customer service was terrible. The food recommendations, the out of the way courtesy, the great looking clean and spacious rooms and the absolutely amazing location (5 minutes... More

Our family stayed at Ancient Romance B&B for 4 nights in May. I don't know whether the positive reviews set the bar too high, but we were underwhelmed by this B&B. We had two rooms on 5th and 6th floors both facing Via Ottaviano. The location is pretty good. It's very near Vatican and only a couple of blocks to... More

We are always very proud to receive reviews with compliments and annotations with amendable aspects, because our hosting service can be improved just thanks to our guest thoughts. We are sorry to read this wonderful and friendly family did not find what they expected, but reading what they have written we are anyway glad to take the good things, trying... More

Coming off a cruise ship in Rome, my wife and I along with another family member decided to stay at a B&B instead of a hotel. It was a great decision. Ancient Romance B&B is located within a five minute walk of the Vatican and a one minute walk to the Metro station. Georgio, the B&B manager, and the Ancient... More

We had absolutely no complaints about our stay in Ancient romance B&B. We were met by an arranged driver by the staff at the B&B who for a very reasonable fee drive us directly to our hotel. I can't say enough about the staff at the B&B. So kind and helpful!!! Our room was very very clean and maid service... More
