The location of this compact but elegant hotel is unbeatable. Walking distance to the Vatican and a number of other historic sites. This is a family owned hotel and they go out of their way to make sure your stay is enjoyable. As I mentioned this is a small hotel, but it is clean, perfectly located and the staff is amazing. We felt so comfortable, almost like we were family.

We got an exceptional welcome from Sveta (Lucia) in the hotel. We never experienced such a personal and heartwarming reception in any of the hotels in Rome and around the world we stayed in the past. Sveta helped us with every small detail including preparing plentiful packed breakfast for our early departure in the morning and arriving early to help us with the taxi to the airport. The best treatment ever and we felt like we stayed at the welcoming family home. Definitely recommend Domus Terenzio as an ultimate accommodation in Rome and will stay there again next times. Sveta, you are the best! Thank you so much for all your help and attention!

Vatican Museums

The Vatican Museums are undoubtedly a must-visit. You’ll find these hallowed halls housed in the holy Vatican City. Perhaps that’s why the works here are of such a godly nature – expect true masterpieces (Ever heard of the Sistine Chapel?) and a beauty so supreme it can’t even be tainted by the crowds of trampling tourists.

So much, we took the guided tour, yes very informative, but skimmed so much to fit within the time allowed, massive crowds, next time maybe we will just get entry to take the experience slower. but worth the visit whichever way it is done I am sure.

Probably important to preface this with: I'm not an art person. But I thought we couldn't miss the masterpieces contained here. Turns out, we could have. We went during closing hours for "fewer crowds" but still the sistine chapel was an unpleasant experience. They really try to shove as many people as possible into the place and I was having none of it. Once you go through to the other side of the partition it's much more enjoyable as they won't be barking at you to shove in shove in. It was just not worth it for us, even with a guided tour so we knew what we were seeing.

I visited the Vatican Museum here, not the Vatican itself.

I visited the Vatican Museum here, not the Vatican itself. The Museum has much incredible art, and I booked a walking tour. By the end of the tour (two hours later), I was understandably tired. Most of what I can remember consists of dusty, half-lit rooms, which didn't help. I was glad to get some fresh air. Be aware that, being close to the Vatican and the Piazza S. Pietro, this neighbourhood is a magnet for junk sellers and scammers. Be extra careful here. The police will do nothing about them.

I've been several times before, but my husband had not, so we booked a group guided tour with Viator. I can say that the Catholic Church has RUINED the Vatican museum and the Sistine Chapel with their greed by shoving 25,000-45,000 people per DAY through there with very little time to see anything!! It was NEVER like this before and I'm appalled that it's become so disgustingly greedy to do this! Our tour started at 2:45 and it was SO crowded and SO rushed that we literally had 3 minutes in the Sistine Chapel, which is at the end of the tour, before the nasty guards literally turned all of the lights off and shoved us out the door!!! Can't miss your 5 pm espresso apparently!!! We were literally crowded shoulder to shoulder with others throughout a great deal of the museum and the chapel!!!

Book skip the line or a tour of the museums, Sistine Chapel and Basillica as one tour, if you book sistene chapel and basillica as a tour you do not have to wait in the huge security line for the Basillica (although it is free if you choose the latter) .

Very good location, walking distance to St Peter’s Basilica and Vatican Museums. The apartment is spacious (feels more spacious than it looks in the pictures) with all the features needed for a comfortable stay and the garden is just perfect!

We loved the apartment in a historical building less than 500 m from Saint Peter’s Square and just down the road from the Vatican Museums. The location could really not be better. The area is lovely with wide streets and wonderful restaurants and Luiza Vatican House is just three blocks away from the metro station. Communication with the host was good and the self-check in easy. Our en-suite room was clean and comfortable and the kitchen well equiped.

Thanks Enersto and Paolo for making sure our short stay was comfortable and going above and beyond to ensure all our transport and activities were organised. The property was clean, quiet and very close to Vatican Museums which was ideal for us. On check out day we could store our luggage at the property which gave us extra time to explore Rome

I had a wonderful stay at this apartment in Rome! The location was perfect — just a short walk from the Vatican Museums and St. Peter's Basilica, with a metro station conveniently nearby. The host was incredibly welcoming and communicative, making check-in smooth and easy. The apartment itself was spotless clean and very well equipped with all the essentials you could need. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Rome!

You cannot avoid the crowd. The best suggestion to visit Vatican museums and St Peter's is to take a guided tour. To visit the Colosseum, book your tickets in advance over the internet and skip the line. Other attractions are easy to visit.
