About

Santamaggiore

Santamaggiore sits in a quiet pocket of Rome, about 2 km from the Trevi Fountain and within easy reach of the Colosseum and other landmarks. The guest house is smoke-free and centres on a courtyard with a shared lounge, so it feels more like a well-run residence than a conventional hotel.

Rooms overlook the city and come with air conditioning, heating, a mini-bar, and tea-and-coffee facilities. Some add a kitchenette, and a shared kitchen with cookware and an electric kettle is available for guests. Staff can help with tours and tickets, and a paid airport shuttle can be arranged.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No on-site parking — The property offers only an off-site car park, which may be less convenient for guests driving into Rome. Public transport is the easier option.
  • Check-in window ends at 23:00 — If you arrive late, you may need to arrange alternative plans; the reception is not available around the clock.
  • Breakfast is not a full buffet — While pastries are delivered, there's no sit-down breakfast room; the shared kitchen and nearby bakeries fill the gap, but it's not a traditional hotel breakfast.
  • Potential noise from the city — Rooms overlook the city, and while double-glazed windows are mentioned in reviews, some light sleepers might still notice street sounds—though many reviews praise the quiet.
