I have stayed in monasteries previously in Italy and in Rome in particular. The location of this one was not my favorite, felt like i was in a bit of abandoned but not dangerous territory. No real finds of restaurants around, except Ottavia, which is expensive but well recommended. The parts I did not like about this professional monestary were:... More

Dear Guest thank you for writing a review. Domus Sessoriana is inside an historical building and stairs cannot be removed. The particular architecture and ruins (roman ruins) inside the building can be admired duiring the walk to the rooms. All rooms are without stairs inside. A part the single Suite where you slept 2 nights. We agree with you that... More

Crisp white linens, heated towel rack, birds diving and singing outside the window, view of the monks' potager, an ever so subtle scent of incense wafting from the Church below on Sunday morning, cypresses and pine trees and the colossal statues of St. John Lateran rising above them. Stately hallways, vitrines with rare books, three meter-tall paintings in the landings,... More

I was studying in Italy last year for 6 months and my boyfriend met me in Rome for a little getaway. We were on a budget so when I came across this on Travel Republic, I was pleased. It looked cute and is a converted 10th century monastery so it does have a very unique interior. I was a little... More

We really liked the Domus! It's different & unique in that you are staying in a converted, but still active, church property. However, think like a monk... it's simple - it's not a 4 star modern hotel. That's the charm. We were in a "standard" room and it was inexpensive by Roma standards so that's what you get. We loved...

Booked a trip through Gate 1 travel for our hotels in Rome and Venice. The hotel was absolutely awesome!! The hotel looks like a church from the outside, but when you get inside it was so quaint and cute! The location was great because it was 25 minute walk to the colosseum, but also only a 20 minute walk to... More

Simple accommodation in an amazing historical building. We found staff friendly and helpful. Don't expect luxury but it was clean and the beds comfortable. 25 minutes walk to the Colosseum. Buses and trams stop across the square outside the hotel giving good access to the city and all it's sights. We found good pizzarias outside the Aurelian wall which is... More

I'm excited to share with Trip Advisor's readers the wonderful experience our Art History Tour group had at this Hotel. It is located within the ruins of the ancient palace (Sessorium) of Emperor Constantine's mother, Saint Helena, and her Palatine Chapel here has become one of Rome's Seven Greater Churches, a site of pilgrimage for Christian and non-Christian culture-vultures alike!...

This hotel is horrible! There is a strange odor in the entire place. The rooms are okay with uncomfortable beds and an ancient small tv. The bathrooms are just disgusting. They stink so bad that it gets unbearable to be in it for more than a few seconds. The toilet in our room was visibly dirty with brown stains. The... More

This hotel is nice and with good price. Is near the Colosseum and Santa Croce in Gerusalemme. On the top of the hotel there is a wonderfull terrace with amazing view, especially during the night. The service is ok, and the breakfast also.
