“Just a stone's throw from Vatican City, this hotel occupies a renovated early 1900s building and distinguishes itself with a unique indoor garden. I noted how quiet it is, despite being so central, plus it's family-friendly, with spacious, well-equipped rooms. The complimentary breakfast and personalized service really stood out, too.”
