My wife and I spend a lot of time on Tripadvisor before we book anything, so we are rarely disappointed, This place is compact and a little hard to find (which is why we took a shuttle from the airport, knowing they would know where to take us). This place is 10 minutes' walk in one direction to the Colliseum and ten minutes' walk in the other direction to the Trevi Fountain. I honestly don't believe there is a better option if you are looking at visiting Rome's attractions. Hopefully you will enjoy your time here as much as we did!
Response from Property: Dear Roddle, thank you so much for your wonderful review and for choosing to stay with us! We’re delighted to hear that you and your wife enjoyed your time at our guesthouse and that the location was exactly what you were looking for. Being just a short walk from both the Colosseum and the Trevi Fountain is indeed something that makes our place quite special. We always hope our guests can experience the magic of Rome’s historic heart while still feeling comfortable and at home with us. Your kind words mean a lot to our team and encourage us to keep welcoming our guests with warmth, familiarity, and a smile. We truly hope to see you again on your next trip to Rome! Warm regards, The Five Rooms Rome Guesthouse Team

While the location of this apartment (the Veneto Prestige Apartment) was perfect for anyone visiting Rome, it unfortunately fell far below our expectations in every other respect. There was a pervasive ingrained odour of smoke/pets throughout the apartment. The bedding and decor was generally of a poor standard and it reminded me of a basic student apartment, minus any personality, charm or comfort. It will potentially suit people who are travelling in a large group and who are looking for a relative bargain on a per head basis. We booked it as while it was roughly the same price as a hotel room, we were happy to find somewhere that offered a little more space. However, it was so unpleasant to be in that we spent as little time there as possible. Everything we packed in our luggage has had to be laundered on our arrival home to get rid of the unpleasant smell. Definitely not a 4-star option and if we had our time again, I would choose a hotel every time.

Very nice place to stay in Monti. Close to very good restaurants/bars. Very welcoming, it was a lovely room with jacuzzi 💕 Such lovely staff who prepares breakfast for you each morning. I would highly recommend here. The room was very quiet at night also which is a plus 🙌 Thank you so much!!

We had one day in Rome at the end of our cruise. We were kindly allowed luggage storage and an early checkin so we hit the ground running. The location was perfect, so close to Colosseum, Fontana di Trevi, Spanish steps etc. The room was spotlessly clean, with gorgeous high ceilings, comfy bed and great bathroom. Plenty of space for luggage and fast WiFi. Perfect stay! I notice some complaints about finding the guesthouse, but the instructions were thorough before we arrived and we found it with ease, as did our taxi and Uber. Bonus lift for luggage too. A hidden gem in the heart of Rome. Would stay again without hesitation!
Response from Property: Dear Georgie, thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your experience! We’re truly happy that you enjoyed your short stay with us at the end of your cruise. It’s wonderful to know that our central location allowed you to make the most of your day in Rome, and that you appreciated the early check-in, the comfort of the room, and those little details like the lift and the high ceilings that make our guesthouse unique. We’re also glad you found our directions clear and had no trouble reaching us — being a “hidden gem” in the heart of Rome means we love helping our guests feel at home right from the start. Your feedback motivates us to keep offering an authentic, warm, and convenient stay. We would be delighted to welcome you back anytime! Warm regards, The Five Rooms Rome Guesthouse Team

The most important thing to know when booking here is that they have more than one location, and that is NOT clear! We arrived at the central Rome location after a long flight from the US, only to be informed that our booking was for their other location, a twenty minute cab ride outside Rome! Ugh. I booked this hotel from the airport in the US just minutes before flying out, and on their initial email confirmation, there was no mention of an address and no indication that we'd booked a different location. So, just a heads up! They fortunately had a room for us in the location we'd arrived at, but at a significant price increase. Honestly, had they just allowed us to stay in the open room at the price we paid for the other room or had it been more clearly my fault, I would have given them more stars. But, given the fact that it was nearly impossible to know I was booking a different location, I imagine this happens all the time. The hotel is located on the 4th floor of what feels like an office building--it is not your typical hotel setting. The elevator is TINY and old, just fyi! The lobby of the hotel feels like a cave with no windows. The room itself was fine; fairly clean except for the prior tenant's old band-aid left on the bathroom floor and a bit of mold at the base of the shower. The beds are VERY hard and the odor of their cleaning supplies used in the bathroom lingered all night. The best part about this hotel is the location, for sure. It is very close to the Monti area and a ten-minute walk to Trevi. The room we had (#1) was very quiet. It wasn't the worst experience, but for the $, I would not stay there again.
Response from Property: Dear Merr, we are always very grateful to our guests when they are available to give their opinion on their recent stay. This allows us to understand which aspects of our work are satisfactory and which need to be improved. First of all, we thank you for having particularly appreciated the unique position in which our Guesthouse is located: a position exactly in the center of ancient Rome, which allows you to reach on foot, simply by walking, unique places in the world, such as the Colosseum, the Imperial Forums, Piazza Venezia, the Trevi Fountain, the Pantheon, giving you the feeling of being at home, but in the midst of beauties from thousands of years ago. Regarding some aspects of your review, we had some difficulty understanding them. In particular, we find it difficult to understand your cry of alarm for those who intend to book at Five Rooms Rome: on online booking sites the address of our facility is very well highlighted; on our website it is equally clear which Five Rooms Rome Guesthouse is and where it is located, as well as which Veneto Prestige Apartment is and where it is located, and also Rome La Sapienza Apartment, and where it is located. As anyone who wishes to do so can easily check, on our site each structure is described very precisely (it is impossible to confuse a Guesthouse with an apartment) and each location is very well highlighted. We understand that in the rush to make a reservation at the same time as you are taking a multi-hour flight you can also get confused, but - we repeat - it is really very difficult. We can assure you that contrary to what you say, in the 10 years of operation of our facility, this is the first time ever that a guest claims to have been confused about the location and type of facility booked. We must then correct an inaccurate statement too: when a reservation is made, we send all our guests a confirmation email in which we provide the exact address of the booked structure (Guesthouse or Apartment) and provide a series of extremely detailed indications on the route to be taken by bus, taxi or even on foot, if someone prefer. In your case, you booked Rome La Sapienza Apartment and not Five Rooms Rome Guesthouse, two very different structures in terms of type, as well as name: we must then point out that Rome La Sapienza Apartment is not located 20 minutes outside of Rome, but is located in the San Lorenzo district, the university area of ​​Rome, 20 minutes from Five Rooms Rome Guesthouse (which is located in the exact center of ancient Rome), but always in the heart of the city, to the point that it can be reached in just a little more 10 minutes - on foot - from Rome Termini Station. When you arrived with your family at the reception of Five Rooms Rome Guesthouse, we tried to help you and having a room available in the Guesthouse we wanted to avoid you having to move to the Rome La Sapienza Apartment, even if this would have meant for us leaving the apartment empty without being able to rent

We had a rather average room. The bathroom bin wasn't empty when we arrived. The walls were a bit dirty, especially on the headboard. The bedspread had a hole in it. The bedside lamp was wobbly. But the receptionists were fantastic. Towels were changed every day.

A place that makes you feel at home. Comfortable beds. Clean. No detail overlooked. The staff is super friendly, helpful, and attentive. Very centrally located, close to all the main monuments within a 15-minute walk. They offer various services such as taxi and airport pickup. It's fantastic; we'd love to stay there forever. Thanks, guys!
