Domus Napoleone  

In Esquilino, central Rome — a compact guesthouse/bed and breakfast a short walk from Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore and Piazza Vittorio. Via Nazionale and Teatro dell'Opera are nearby, and the Colosseum and Roman Forum sit within about a mile. Centrally located and perfect for on-foot sightseeing.

Only five air-conditioned rooms means a quiet, small-scale stay. Rooms feature refrigerators or mini-bars, flat-screen TVs, desks and laptop-compatible safes. Private bathrooms have showers, complimentary toiletries and some offer bidets and hair dryers. Daily housekeeping and staff who speak English and Italian keep things simple and friendly.

Complimentary wireless internet and tour/ticket assistance help you plan the day. An area shuttle and transfer services are available for a surcharge, and baggage storage and street parking are offered for arrivals by car. Ideal base to wake up and step straight into Rome’s churches and piazzas.

Limo/town car service, express check-out and luggage storage are on offer. A 24-hour roundtrip airport shuttle and a cruise ship terminal shuttle can be arranged for a surcharge.
