Our stay at this hotel was simply wonderful! The rooms were clean, comfortable, and tastefully decorated, but what truly made our stay special was the owner’s approach. From the moment we arrived, he welcomed us with a smile and kindly gave us recommendations on what to see in the area and where to eat. Throughout our stay, he made sure we had everything we needed and was always happy to chat or provide useful tips. It’s clear that he runs the hotel with passion, and taking care of guests is his top priority. His personal touch created a warm and friendly atmosphere that made us feel right at home. We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for not just quality accommodation, but also an exceptional experience!

We stayed at Maison Candia for 3 days and our experience was absolutely fantastic. The host was incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with a smile. The room was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully decorated, with all the amenities one could need. The hotel’s location was perfect, close to attractions which made getting around very easy. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide variety of fresh and delicious options. Overall, the hotel exceeded our expectations, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable stay.

We stayed here in October of 2023 (my review is late; apologies!). The location was the best. Our main goal was to visit the Vatican and this place is literally within a 10 minute walking distance. We were able to avoid the long line-ups and large crowds at the Vatican church as we were able to make it super early (before 7 am) as the proximity of Maison Candia is really close. There are also great restaurants and shops in the nearby area. Our group is not well suited to large tourist crowds so it was definitely a plus to be able to walk back to our place of stay to relax during the day, have a nap, and go out again at night for evening festivities! It's another plus that Joseph is an amazing host. He informed us a lot of the nearby attractions and places to be cautious of. He has excellent recommendations of great restaurant and gelato stores!

Nothing!

The hotel is close to Vatican and Ottaviano metro station. Close to the hotel are many restaurants. The room was very chic decorated; all was very clean (cleaning every day). The breakfast was good and with multiple possibilities of choice. The host, Joseph, was very kind and hospitable; he cooked for us every day omelette, eggs. We had a late check-in, and he waited for us and gave us informations to reach the hotel. For us was a excellent choice.

Josef is the best, he made our stay in Rome so much more fun! :) He even catered for our special no-sugar diet needs every morning which was a huge plus, not to mention how generous the breakfast always was. He is also the Master of Omlets, you have to try his tomato one. ;) The location is perfect for those who want to stay close to Vatican City but also plan to visit the Historical City Center: Ottaviano (Line A) Metro station is just 5 minutes walk away.

Not really a big deal, but one thing to be maybe prepared for is that hot water in the morning needs couple of minutes to heat up (the shower head has multicolour LEDs that change colour according to water temperature) and water pressure for showering is not exceptionally high - but I guess this is the price you pay to stay this close to Vatican City. :)

This is a very well managed small hotel. It has only 6 rooms and you get the most personal attention and service from the manager. His name is Joseph and he's an asset: very helpful and friendly. Rooms are bright and comfortable, everything is of a good size not in american way, but Rome-wise you can say they are spacious ) The location is excellent surrounded by an endless number of shops and restaurants. 15 minutes to the Vatican by feet. The breakfast at this place is very good. You get traditional Italian cornetto and other pastries with coffee and Joseph also offers ham and cheese and very tasty omelettes.

The only downside of this place is that the window face the busy street. So if you like to sleep with the windows open you might want to consider bringing earplugs with you.

Joseph who was managing the property was very helpful getting everything set up. With three different locks to get inside the room, the room was very secure and felt safe. I left my luggage to wait for check in and Joseph gave me an extensive intro to the city with important things to be careful about. He then gave me a tour of the room and handed over the keys. The room was comfy and clean. The property is 5 minutes from the Ottaviano station and is ten minutes from the Vatican! Super convenient. The shops downstairs have a low cost feel to them but some exploration of the neighborhood revealed some excellent bars open beyond midnight!

The temperature control was hard to figure out so we woke up hot often, there was something being cooked in the living area of the apartment which led to a weird smell when you entered and since the rooms are very close to each other one should prepare to hear the other guests through the walls

Very comfortable bed. Very nice staff. Really supportive. Great location just 2 mins from Vatican

Everything was amazing, a very cosy place, clean room, the heating system works perfectly, the breakfast had the classic Italian sweets and even omelette for those who prefer something more consistent. The staff is very helpful. It is positioned 2 minutes away from Ottaviano metro station and in walking distance of Vatican. A great place.

Convenient location, close to subway, lots of restaurants and waking distance to Vatican. Manager was fantastic, helped us with travel tips, directions, making sure we were comfortable. The room was small, but very clean, lots of storage space and comfortable. Appreciated the flexibility of early check in. Thank you!!
