Had a wondeful 3 night stay here. Room (superior double) was comfortable and well furnished, if a bit spare in terms of decor. As many have noted, bathroom is very small, though I found it to be manageable. Breakfast was decent with good fresh fruit options, but otherwise unremarkable. Appreciated the daily complementary beverage restocks. The daily gospel excerpts were also a great touch. Staff was friendly and helpful for info and arranging tickets and tours.

Property is steps away from the Vatican. Rooms are small but well air conditioned. Garden entrance was a nice relaxing area. Front desk was very helpful. They even packed a breakfast for an early flight out. Cab services were arranged and timely.

Micaela was the best host I’ve ever experienced in traveling all over the world. She was great to point out areas to visit, events at the Vatican and great local restaurants. Her customer service was excellent and we hope to come back soon!

Historic location and building - only 50 yards from St Peter’s. Small rooms but nice. Excellent breakfast. Wonderful courtyard - great for a hanging around after a day of sightseeing and shopping.

Hotel was excellent. Perfect location for St. Peter's Square Christmas and Immaculate Conception special events including unveiling of an incredible nativity designed by Maestro Franco Artese; walkable to other neighborhoods; a large variety of restaurants and shopping; so many other special Churches, historic sites and museums easily reached by walking or taxi.

Overall a 2/10. Staff was very reluctant to help us with small requests to try to improve the comfort of the hotel. Extremely small room and bathroom. Almost could not fit in the tiny shower. Basically paying for location only. Bed extremely uncomfortable.

The best upgrade we've ever had! Upgraded from deluxe room to garden suite.
Facilities were spotless and superb by any standards. Our bedroom even had a painted ceiling in a similar style to those in many of the churches.
The management could not have been more pleasant and helpful throughout our stay.
Location on the Via Della Conciliazone right outside Vatican City.
We like walking and were able to walk to all the classic historic sites from our hotel. The longest walk, to the Colosseum, was only 40 minutes, and very pleasant walking in the shade by the river.
We had a brilliant 4 days/nights and were so pleased we had booked the Palazzo Cardinal Cesi.
Don't usually bother writing a review but the hotel deserves it. Thank you.

The Palazzo is stunning. The rooms are immaculate with every necessity. Breakfast was fabulous with a lot of variety. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Plus it’s very close to St. Peter’s and all the Baticsn attractions as well as within walking distance of others (if you like to walk and are able). Would definitely stay there again!

This is the place for the perfect stay in The Eternal City! The rooms are clean, pretty and a nice size. You are steps away from St. Peter's Basilica, marvelous shopping and great restaurants. If there are other areas of this magnificent city you want to visit, there is a taxi stand around the corner. From check in ( friendly smiles and help with luggage - Thank you, Patrick!) to arranging a car service or taxis - Thank you Claudia! to the amazing breakfast - AWESOME cappuccinos!!! The Palazzo Cardonal Cesi is where you want to stay for an amazing stay in Roma!
