Wonderful stay!! Only stayed for two night but wished we had been able to stay longer. Receptionist went out of her way to help us get from the cruise port to her hotel. Upon arrival, she gave us some insight as to the area and gave us some recommendations for dinning- which were delicious! Anca - the receptionist- also booked us our airport transportation. Overall, our stay was wonderful! Highly recommend- and definitely order their room service breakfast- best croissants and lattes!!

This is a no-frills hotel, but it offers everything you could want for a smooth, hassle-free vacation. We especially appreciated how clean the property was the quiet atmosphere. Reception operates only from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., but we were provided with a code to access the main entrance at any time. The staff were consistently helpful and courteous, adding to the welcoming vibe. A special shout-out and thank you to the lovely reception team of Anca and Daniele.  We had a light breakfast of coffee and a croissant daily, which is perfect if you want to sleep in yet still want a quick bite before heading out. I also loved that housekeeping cleaned our room whenever we removed the “Do Not Disturb” sign. This is a thoughtful touch often missing from larger hotels where room cleaning is usually once in 3 days or on request, especially in NA. Eccelso is located in a residential neighborhood, which makes it feel even more homely. Just across the street, there's a pharmacy and many excellent, reasonably priced dining options, and a taxi stand. The metro is only a 5-min walk away, a convenience store is just around the corner. Plus, Via Ottaviano offers great shopping. We chose Eccelso because it's a 5-min walk from the Vatican since we were visiting Rome for the Jubilee Year. But we will surely choose this hotel again for our next visit to Rome.

We appreciated the vicinity to vatican city as that was where we wanted to spend our free day before flying home. There were many restaurants close by and a light breakfast was also provided for a small fee. We appreciated the large bathroom and the space in the room to accommodate two large suitcases. AC worked great and the hotel was overall quiet and comfortable.

Pros - near everything. Walk to Vatican and many restaurants. Wonderful staff, very clean room, super comfortable bed. Only minor issues was limited counter space in bathroom and a little challenging to find due to limited street signage in Rome. Would highly recommend for price!

Nice property, close to the Vatican in the Prati area. Safe, convenient and lots of dining options. Room was quaint, but on the smaller side. There are zero toiletries available, so you’ll have to either have your own or purchase some across the street at nearby pharmacy. Staff was friendly and helpful.
