Domus Giulia

“Perfect location”

We have just returned from a fantastic visit to Rome where we spent four nights staying at Domus Giuliana. We arrived at 12:00, our room wasn’t ready, but we were able to leave our bags and take the keys for our return later in the day. The room was large with a king sized bed, there is a small wardrobe area and a desk with chair. The bathroom has a shower and bidet, the shower has good water pressure. Toiletries are provided and the room also had a hairdryer. Breakfast was simple, eggs, toast, pastries, yogurt…nice and light to set you up for the day. Location is perfect. Very close to the Vatican and the pantheon. Just across the river from Trastevere. We walked everywhere. Would not hesitate to stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay at Domus Giulia. The location is fantastic. The rooms were clean and were reasonably spacious. The cost was reasonable. The breakfast were very good. The staff was wonderful! They were very friendly and went above and beyond to help with things like getting a taxi (taxis were hard to get and a staff member offered to walk us to a taxi stand. En route they dashed off since they saw a taxi letting someone out, and they asked the driver to take us). We would gladly stay here again.

“Wonderful stay in affordable B&B, with fantastic staff.”

Had a wonderful 4-night stay at Domus Giulia for the May half-term. Three of us (Mum, Dad, teenager), stayed in a family room, with one queen(?)-sized bed and one single.

Had a wonderful 4-night stay at Domus Giulia for the May half-term. Three of us (Mum, Dad, teenager), stayed in a family room, with one queen(?)-sized bed and one single. Room was spacious and clean, with good bathroom and shower facilities. Beds were made up each morning while we were out. Good hanging space for clothes; no drawers though, which didn’t bother us. Facility to make tea and coffee, and hairdryer provided. Breakfast was continental-style (fruit, croissants, cold meats, bread, etc) with option of scrambled or fried eggs. Lovely strong coffee! Only thing about breakfast is that it starts at 7.45am, so if you are going on an early visit somewhere (as we did to the Vatican), you’ll need to make other plans for breakfast that day. The wonderful lady at the desk could not have been more helpful, from leaving very clear instructions for our arrival (as a Bed & Breakfast, the desk does not always have someone there), to pointing us in the right directions as needed, to arranging for a taxi to get us back to the airport. We accepted the offer of their transport service on arrival. At 65 euros, it’s not the cheapest, but it saved the hassle of trying to find the entrance, which is not obvious! But as I say, very clear instructions, including photos, were sent to us beforehand, so there were no problems getting to our room even though it was ‘after hours.’ Check in was completed the following morning, and we paid the Rome tourist tax (6 euros per person per day) when checking out. Domus Giulia is a lovely, affordable place to stay for a few nights. It’s close to the Vatican, and also to stop number 6 for the hop-on-hop-off buses, which also stop near the Colosseum, Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain, etc. It’s by the river, and a main road, but with the window closed, the traffic didn’t bother us that much, although that may be because of being tired every night after full days! We would definitely stay here again if we ever come back to Rome.
