I recently stayed at Hotel Relais Dei Papi and overall, it was a nice experience. The location was super convenient, just a stone's throw from the Vatican and plenty of great restaurants nearby. The rooms were tidy and comfortable, though my shower was a bit on the small side. While there were some miscommunications regarding amenities, especially breakfast logistics, I'd still consider this hotel for another visit.

Breakfast was decent, with a good selection, but the setup was a bit chaotic as you had to walk to another building for it. Some items seemed repetitive, but overall it set me up for the day.

The hotel had basic facilities but nothing too fancy. Wi-Fi was quick, which helped me plan my daily adventures. There were no kitchen amenities in the room, which was a bit inconvenient for snacking.

My stay at Hotel Relais Dei Papi was quite enjoyable, thanks to the charming atmosphere and the attentive staff. The location was fantastic, making it easy to walk to key attractions like the Vatican. However, the breakfast could have offered more variety, and there were minor issues with the room comfort, such as a somewhat uncomfortable mattress. Overall, I would consider returning to this boutique hotel.
