the staff of this hotel insulted my wife for being non-white and non catholic. It ruined an otherwise lovely trip to Italy. more

We stayed at the Residenza Paolo VI in Rome on Feb. 18-19th, 2008. It was recommended to us by a business partner/friend who lives in Italy who stays there when in Rome on business. Once it was recommended I looked it up on TripAdvisor, and was dismayed at some of the reviews. First, the location; walk out the front entranceway... more

Wonderful location, delightful service. Have zero complaints. more

I would highly recommend this hotel for it's amazing location just yards from St. Peter's square, helpful and polite staff, large beds (which is hard to find in Rome!), and absolutely beautiful view of St. Peter's dome from the hotel's roof deck. The afternoon we arrived in Rome, (after our flight was delayed from NYC 3 hours) would have been... more

Perfect location across the street from the Vatican. The view from the terrace is phenomenal. The breakfast was very elegant. (My family was very excited about the fact that they had eggs and bacon.) The rooms were very clean and quite roomy. Please note: You get what you pay for. I had a party of 6 that we split into... more

I couldn't have chosen a more romantic setting and as you can guess it went well. The hotel couldn't be any closer to the... more

The website suggests a bit more elbow room than actually exists. We stayed in a deluxe suite, with our (older) kids in a triple.... more

I just returned from a stay at the Residenza Paolo VI, and will never stay anywhere else in Rome. I gather from some of the reviews and photos that I was fortunate to have a deluxe room, which was comfortable, beautiful, quiet, and spotless. It had a marble floor, and a couple of lovely oriental rugs; damask drapes; and simple,... more

Do not be taken in by the great marketing for this hotel, pity it doesnt live up to it. Overpriced, rooms tiny, air conditioning poor, lift archaic, terrace tiny, appears on photos much better than it actually is. I suggest you look elsewhere unless you absolutely must be about 500yds from St Peters Square. Breakfast is OK. Staff helpfull more
