JENNIFER
The location is perfect, 10 min from train station, Ottaviano, 6-8 min from St Peters Basilica and St Angelo’s and lots of food choices to eat.Bus stop 81 is also 3-5 min walk. The reception are friendly, the room is roomy( family of 4) and the aircon is fab. The breakfast buffet is ok but the same daily and theres no hot breakfast which is normal in Europe I think. We stayed for 5 nights and the only downside is you pay additional for the tax when you arrive which costs us another 115 euro. We found Jollibee which is good for chickenjoy only 6-8 min walk from the hotel. We booked a return journey through SIT bus to and from Fuimicino airport which is around £6 and is about 15 min walk from the hotel. The area was safe and we even stayed during Young Adults Jubillee week.

We had a great stay, thanks to the wonderful customer service and warm hospitality, especially from Monica, our host, she was truly welcoming and attentive throughout our visit. The hotel itself is a bit dated, but we chose it for the excellent location, and it definitely delivered. It’s in one of the best areas for tourists, with easy access to major sites and public transportation. The breakfast, included in the stay, was simple but satisfying, and available from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM, which was very convenient for our schedule. Overall, a pleasant stay, if the hotel updates some of the interiors, it would be even better!

Certainly! Here’s an English (Ireland) translation of your text, with subtle adjustments to reflect Irish English vocabulary, tone, and phrasing: --- Welcome to Vatican City, the world’s smallest independent state and a spiritual heartland for millions of Catholics across the globe. Tucked away within the lively city of Rome, Vatican City is a treasure trove of art, history, and religious importance. As you pass through its gates, you’re stepping into a place where ancient traditions and stunning artistry come together, offering a travel experience that’s truly unique and deeply rewarding. Start your visit at St. Peter’s Basilica, one of the largest and most magnificent churches in the world. Designed by renowned architects such as Michelangelo, Bernini, and Bramante, this breathtaking building is a masterpiece of Renaissance architecture. Take in Michelangelo’s Pietà, a moving sculpture showing Mary cradling the body of Jesus. If you’re up for it, climb to the top of the dome for a spectacular panoramic view over Vatican City and Rome—a sight that’s sure to stay with you. Afterwards, make your way to the Vatican Museums, a maze-like complex home to an incredible collection of art and historical treasures. Here, you’ll find the Sistine Chapel, famous for Michelangelo’s ceiling frescoes, including the iconic Creation of Adam. The museums also feature works by Raphael, Caravaggio, and Da Vinci, among others. Take your time wandering through the vast galleries, each one filled with remarkable pieces spanning centuries of human creativity and devotion. Finally, take a stroll through the peaceful Vatican Gardens, a lush oasis offering a welcome break from the crowds. Covering more than half of Vatican City, these gardens are dotted with fountains, sculptures, and beautifully kept plants. A guided tour will give you fascinating insights into the history and meaning of this tranquil spot. Whether you’re a pilgrim or a lover of history, Vatican City promises an unforgettable experience, steeped in the rich legacy of faith, art, and culture. ---
