About

Arie Romane Guesthouse - Rome

Arie Romane Guesthouse is a small, pet-friendly guesthouse on Via Degli Scipioni, a quiet street in Rome's Prati district. With just 10 rooms, it offers a more personal stay than a large hotel, and the reviews consistently highlight the welcoming, helpful staff.

The location is the main draw: a short walk from the Vatican Museums and Saint Peter's Square, and just a couple of minutes from the Ottaviano metro station. Rooms are simply furnished with parquet floors, free Wi-Fi, and some have balconies overlooking the city.
