Holiday Home Il Sogno A San Pietro

We were warmly welcomed by Gianna to the property and instantly made to feel like we were at our own home. Finding a property with 3 double bedrooms for a reasonable price was really fantastic for our friend group. The bedrooms are an extremely generous size and the beds themselves are spacious and our group especially liked that the pillows seemed to be memory foam and provided a lot of support. The location is absolutely unbelievable, on one morning we left the apartment and we were INSIDE the Vatican Museum about 10-15 minutes later. There are also nice cafes, bars and restaurants in the area - you definitely won’t starve or go dehydrated! The proximity to metro stations was also extremely helpful as we would have to head back to the apartment to escape the heatwave (who would have though the English, Scottish and Flemish would struggle with temperatures of 38-41°!) Air conditioning is provided in the biggest bedroom but plenty of fans were provided in the rest of the apartment to attempt to beat the heat and humidity somewhat. Overall, this apartment was absolutely perfect for our trip and we can’t thank Gianna enough for everything she did for us.

The shower head in the bathroom could probably do with being replaced, the jets were going in all directions and it wasn’t the most comfortable, however this would not be enough to put us off returning in the future.

The hostess Gianna was super friendly and helpful, the unit was very comfortable and clean. She had pastries, yogurts and drinks for us and she kept checking to make sure we were comfortable! Very close to the Vatican and metro station. Highly recommended!

There was air conditioning in one of the three bedrooms, the other two had fans.

Perfect location for the Vatican. The Vatican museum was 5 mins walk and the entrance to St Peter’s Square was 15 mins. Metro stop close by to get to the Colosseum, however due to my husband’s mobility issues we choose to get a taxi. Taxis are not cheap but was the better option for us. Gianna our host was fantastic. She met us at the property and answered all our questions. She arranged our taxi from Rome to our next destination. Highly recommended.

Excellent location. Great facilities. Gianna was a fantastic host
