I had a pretty good time at Hotel Relais Dei Papi. The location is fantastic since it's close to the Vatican and other major sights, making it super easy to walk around. The staff, especially Giuseppe, were incredibly friendly and helpful, which really made my stay pleasant. My only gripes were that the room was a tad small and the breakfast area felt a bit cramped, but overall, it was a solid experience.

The hotel had a unique retro lift that added charm to the experience. However, some facilities like the gym felt too small, and the spa was not worth the cost. Wi-Fi was reliable, which I appreciated for planning my day.

I had a decent stay at Hotel Relais Dei Papi with its fantastic location near the Vatican and charming, eclectic decor. However, I faced a few downsides like the breakfast quality and a few minor issues with my room. The staff were helpful, but I did find some aspects of the room less than ideal, like the shower situation.

My room was quirky but had some odd features like the shower being in the room rather than the bathroom. I also faced issues with the door not closing properly and a lack of spare sockets for charging devices.

The location was excellent, very close to the Vatican and surrounded by nice local restaurants and cafes. I could easily walk to many attractions without feeling overwhelmed by tourist crowds.

The breakfast could have been much better; I only found croissants and toast edible after opting out of the other options that included stale milk and unappetizing hot items.

Facilities

The hotel had a charming rooftop area with great views, but it didn't serve food or drinks up there. The tiny antique elevator added character, although it might not suit everyone's taste.
