Nautilus Hotel

I read through some of the reviews and I review this with the caveat that this is a very European/Italian-style hotel. It's not an American hotel. If you're an American expecting a Holiday Inn where you drive up and there's a suite with 70 pillows and a full sized fridge, this ain't it. Did you come to Europe for an American experience? A lot of hotels in Rome are like this one, on the floor of a building. The room I was in was immaculately clean and comfortable. I visited in October, so I had no need of things like AC. I left the bathroom window cracked and closed the bathroom door and the room was a perfect temperature. The breakfast was likewise NOT a full American breakfast. It was an Italian-style, which is might lighter than we're used to: pastries and coffee. Simple, elegant, Italian, like the people. I like it, but I also am as my Italian husband says "half Italian." I think it's about expectations. I loved this place and the owner was very kind despite me butchering his language. He let me leave my luggage while I ran around the city.

Clean, nice, friendly and helpful staff on the morning of check-out there was a blackout of a couple of hours in the area they were very nice to make us stay in the room beyond the scheduled time to be able to finish fixing.... Inconvenient for them too because it moved their work by two or three hours....

Rooms in private mansion. Good welcome and pleasant and helpful staff. Well located near the Vatican and not too far from other sightseeing. To recommend. prrstaff attentive and helpful. A little frugal breakfast but perfect taxi reservation.
