Pantheon Inn - Rome

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The Pantheon Inn has a great location in the historic heart of Rome. As the name implies, it is a stone's throw away from the Pantheon and right across from the Santa Maria della Minerva church and square. Although the entrance can be a bit tricky to find, make sure you look for the tiny elevator to go up to the reception with your bags. The desk staff […] was extremely curteous, helpful and available 24/7. The room includes a typical continental breakfast, not a Scandinavian smorgasbord (as some reviewers seemed to expect). It includes excellent coffee, pastries, and various jellies, cheese and cold cuts. Our room was simple and clean, larger than expected (according to European standards). The room overlooked the street and the roof/bells of the church across the street. Overall, this hotel is a great find, affordable and I would absolutely stay here again. Read more

Nice room and great location and good value. Bed was a little hard, not surprising as this is typical for European beds. Only draw back was not being able to check in until 2:00 PM. Exhausted after flight and early check in would have been nice.

Ideal location in the center of Rome. Staff was very friendly and the room very comfortable. Don't stay here if you aren't willing or able to climb stairs or you expect an American style breakfast.

Hotel is a great choice close to the Pantheon, fontana de Trevi, even walking distance from the Vaticano (35 min) and all great places in Rome. All personnel are helpful, breakfast is good, they have maps and all info you need. Being in an old building it's a little tight for 4 guests in the same room but that could be easily handled by us.

The staff was helpful but the bed was so hard that it was difficult to sleep on. The location was a little iffy and hard to find, so definitely read the info on the website about what the front looks like. It is a green door just down the street from a larger hotel. If they were to replace their beds, i would stay again.

This hotel is a very convenient location. "Rivu," at the front desk was very pleasant and they had a comfortable dining room for a continental breakfast. The bedroom was clean, however, the comfort of the bed and apparent age of the pillow left much to be desired.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Very good location- could see top of Pantheon and listen to bells in open window. The building has rich historical character and is silent at night. Management - thoughtful and cheerful. One negative is TV on with breakfast with unnecessary noise and an intrusion on a quite cappuccino and croissant which would make the visit perfect.

Although the hotel on the outside looked sort of questionable; I was delighted with my room, the staff and service. The views from my terrace and the close walking distance without the noise of this location were ideal. Everything is within two large doors, the hotel grows in height and the courtyard within has multi terraces and plants, the noises […] are removed and it seems like a little bit of heaven of Italy. The rooms were very well kept and cleaned and the air conditioner worked well in the summer heat - I asked for a second floor room with terrace. My daughter was staying on the third floor with family. There are family options with multiple bedrooms and front room which I'd love to come back to visit in the future. Di Rienzo Ristorante-Cafe was within the Pantheon square steps from the Inn. Marvelous restaurant and elite waiters with complete meals - ideal for two or like us 12 family members. Read more

Steps away from the Pantheon, this hotel is absolutely amazing for the price. The rooms are air conditioned and very clean. The bathroom is modern, and there is a small closet to store your things and ample table space. Our room was not large, but it wasn't cramped either. All of the major sites are within walking distance, and there are lots of good […] restaurants and gelato places near the Pantheon. The hotel staff was friendly and very helpful when we asked them for recommendations about places to eat or how to get to various sites. Breakfast was great too - espresso machine, juice, cereals, cold cuts, yogurt, fruit, and lots of yummy pastries. The only downside is that we had to climb quite a few steps to get to our room, and the elevator is very tiny. But then again, you have to be ready to climb steps everywhere in order to really enjoy the city. I have already recommended this place to friends who will be in Rome later this year, and I would definitely stay here again. Read more

The hotel was very good overall, and comfortable even with a family of 4. The location was great - fairly easy walking distance to most sights and a comfortable, safe neighborhood. One complaint was the noise in the room - the room under the breakfast area gets very noisy as of about 7:00am with tables/chairs moving around, people walking and voices […] - it was very disturbing if your family prefers to sleep at all past 7:00am.

We loved the hotel. The location is superb. The service from the staff was outstanding. The rooms are not luxury, but if you want something out of the ordinary, real old Roman, these are great. Finding the hotel was a slight problem. We finally checked the door bells at the address and there it was the first one. We will definitely stay there again […] the next time in Rome. Read more

This hotel has only 13 rooms and it's one of those thats converted from a residence to a hotel. This hotel is located very close to Pantheon, hence the hotel name. Staff is very friendly. Service was very good. Breakfast is very good. We got the room right below the breakfast area and since the place is very old, we heard lot of noise of people walking […] in the morning. So when we told the staff, they asked us if we wanted to move to another room but we decided to stay in the same room but that was very nice. I would highly recommend this place if you want a center location and don't want to pay too much. Just an FYI, we had to pay City tax in cash even though Hotel.com charged us Taxes and fees but I think this is very common in Eurpoe. Read more

We felt like we were locals for the few days we stayed at the Pantheon Hotel. It has the perfect location and the staff was amazing. Don't be fooled by the more expensive hotels that are further away. You're better off staying in the middle of everything and walking everywhere.

This hotel is tucked away with no signage from street, but in a great location to walk anywhere in Rome. We emailed them and made arrangements to have a driver meet us at the airport so finding the hotel was obviously not a problem for us. There were others that didn't read the reviews to figure out how to find the hotel. Service was great. Check in […] is on 3rd floor. There is a small elevator so you don't have to carry luggage up 3 fights, so be sure to look for it to right of stairs. My only suggestion is that they have some sort of signage on building next to the address. Read more

This second floor hotel is not luxurious, but it is clean, spacious and friendly. The entrance is not well-marked, with only a small brass sign and a panel of call buttons - once inside there is a small flight of stairs to a tiny old-fashioned elevator. Located steps from the Pantheon in a quiet neighborhood chock full of decent restaurants/bars and […] equidistant from the Vatican and the colosseum. Trevi Fountain is a comfortable 10 minute walk - we went there every evening to see it lighted at night and always felt safe. If you are visiting Rome to walk the city and see the sights, this affordable gem is worth the effort. Read more

Take a taxi from the train station for about 10 Euros. The metro is too hard with luggage and only gets you 2 stops closer. Located right behind the Pantheon tucked away near Pantheon Internet store there are large green doors and a hotel sign on the wall to ID the location. Hotel is on 2nd floor about 4 flights up but a small elevator from the courtyard […] takes you up. Coomfy bed and sattlelight tv (if you can find any English channels, but when in Rome who needs tv) rooms have a safe too, the bathroom is nothing fancy. There is free wifi at the hotel, get the pw from the desk. Very nice employees and a basic breakfast was included. Overal comfortable hotel in an awesome building. Read more

Overall, a good experience. We couldn't believe it was really a hotel when we pulled up in a cab and there was no sign. But the address was right and when we checked the multiple call buttons there was one for the Pantheon Inn. Once we gained entrance to the courtyard we still weren't sure where to go and a couple of fellows sitting there having a sandwich […] couldn't help us. Finally, we figured out that the place was on the second floor and climbed up with our bags only to learn later that there was a lift. Once we found the desk we were well cared for with a friendly staff and a very adequate room including a balcony over the courtyard. There was an acceptable continental breakfast in the morning which we enjoyed on our balcony. The location was perfect only 2 blocks from the Pantheon and near to everything we wanted to see. We would go back. My only recommendation is that the location and entrance routine be better explained. Read more

A few recommendations for Pantheon: (1) Put a sign for elevator... it's easy to miss -- we did, as well as other guests we saw enter after us (2) if you advertise you have A/C, then *put it on*; it should not be conditional. Otherwise, dont advertise it, or state its conditional on (a) timer, and potentially (b) time of year. (3) oh, get a sign for […] Pantheon Inn on big doors, or wall next to doors. Lack of A/C in room initially was tough, esp. for us when we were 4 people stuffed into the space of a double room, and the window was very small & no cross ventilation. Otherwise, all employees polite, do best to serve you, and friendly. Surprisingly quiet given its proximity to Pantheon & high-end hotel next door that has a fair amt of traffic in front of it.

The hotel had nice facilities. It was a great location for visiting many of the main sites in Rome. However, the man working the desk at night was quite rude. He told us that he needed us to switch rooms for the last night of our stay, probably because they had double-booked the room. When we told him we'd prefer not to, he became even more unfriendly […] and said he would let us know early in the morning if we needed to. We wound up convincing him that we didn't want to switch, but he was rude to us for the rest of our stay. Other than the night man working the front desk, the hotel was clean, breakfast satisfying and the rooms quite simple, but nice. Read more

Overall the stay here was fair. The continental breakfast was so so but it did the trick until later. It was near both Campo di Fiori which has a wonderful farmer's market and you have to visit the fruit stand run by Manuela and vegetable stand run by Massimo and Piazza Navonna. Very close to the various different bus lines and easy walking to quite […] a few sites. Staff was very friendly and helpful especially the desk clerks. I would recommend this hotel and would stay here again. Read more

Staying at this hotel which occupies 2 floors of an apartment building really gave us a feel for Rome and how people live there. The room was small but clean with an updated bathroom, and the location was perfect. Close to the monuments, to the supermarket, to good kosher restaurants...everything was within 10-15 mins. walking distance. We had a great […] stay in Rome partly because the location was so good. With two children 8 and 12 yrs old, we would take a taxi to the monuments which were further away in the morning such as the Vatican, and then leisurely walk our way back in the afternoon, passing other historical sights on the way. The service was good, they were very polite, efficient and courteous. The breakfast which was included gave us an early start to exploring the city. Great value for the price. My only complain was that the bed was not so comfortable. Read more

The worst thing about this hotel is finding it! However, once you know here it is you will be so grateful for its central location. The room was large, the furniture well-worn, but maintained. Bathroom was new and the personnel lovely and helpful. The small breakfast room made interactions with other travelers friendly and natural. Location near the […] Pantheon, as the name implies, is extremely convenient. Make sure to look up any hotel on Google Earth before you go so you have a strong sense of where you will be staying.

This hotel is ALL about location. Located next door to the Pantheon, the location could not be better! However, if you want a spacious room and a breakfast before 7 am, you might want to choose a different hotel. The hotel and rooms are very small, but clean.

Excellent location; very attentive, knowledgeable staff. Our room was in the newly renovated wing with AC and large bathroom; it was well-appointed and quiet. Although breakfast comes on plastic and with juice and coffee from machines, it is certainly serviceable--and great coffee can be had around the corner at Tazza D'oro. An excellent value at the […] Pantheon Inn. Read more

PERFECTLY situated in the heart of Rome with easy easy access to many major "Must See"s in Rome. Easy Walking distance to Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, Piazza Navonna and Coliseum to mention a few. My two teenagers and I stayed in a room for three prior to going on cruise. We had a LOT of luggage which we did not store but simply kept in room so not sure […] how much room for clothing....but room served our purposes perfectly! Bathroom long and skinny but very modern and clean. But it was the location and price that will make me return! Could not have asked for a better deal in a more perfectly situated spot! Read more

Amazing location in the heart of Rome. The rooms were clean, excellent shower, and very pretty. The windows onto the street were great, to get some fresh air and sunshine.

We walked everywhere. […] No need for transport. Read more

perfect location, lovely staff, decent breakfast, a little hard to find as is is in a private building.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel wasn't prominent from the street, as it shares an entrance with residential apartments and is accessed via an intercom. When we arrived, we found it clean and beautifully presented; the staff were welcoming and couldn't do enough to help. Also as far as we could hear they can between them handle at least four languages. The concierge on our […] first day provided us a summary of local sights and marked all these on a map for us, adding a recommendation for a local restaurant nearby. At one point we had a problem with drainage in our room, and reported this to the staff. Their engineer attended and had the matter dealt with in no time (the problem was no fault of the hotel but due to another guest on the same floor). The engineer even came to find us downstairs to update us and thank us for reporting the problem. Ah, now: stairs. There are quite a lot. We counted 83 to our room from the street: there was a lift, but we weren't sure if it was for the apartment residents, and the walk did us good! We've subtracted one comfort mark solely for street noise, which is only due to the proximity of the Pantheon and a piazza outside where people gather quite late. The windows being traditional Roman wood frames and shutters, there's not a lot of soundproofing, but we got used to this fairly quickly. The location of the hotel is quite central and provides easy walking access to many popular sights of Rome. A great week and we would definitely stay here again. Read more

The room was comfortable, windows to the street, A/C worked well, wifi (free) most of the time. Nice breakfast room. Very small hotel with minimal staff. Excellent location, excellent quality for price.

Clean and comfortable hotel in a great location. The beds were a bit hard and there was quite a lot of road noise even though we were on the top floor and it is not on a main road. Not much that can be done about this except close the window! Would stay again.

My boyfriend and I visited the pantheon inn from 5-8th march 2012 and so glad we did! It's in the perfect location, safe and near to the main sites (we walked everywhere, no need for buses!) lots of restaurants for the evening too which was perfect. The staff were fantastic and so friendly, they did a map for us on day one to show us the main places […] to visit and were also full of useful advice jumping to help out anyway they could. Breakfast was good and free wifi was useful as the tv wasnt great. Only miner issue was the shower which turned hot and cold! We would definatly come back here, loved it!! Read more

We found this "Inn" through Hotels.com and chose it based on price, location and other guest reviews. Being this was our 5th time in Rome we pretty much knew where we would like to stay and the area around The Pantheon is our personal favourite. Our familiy of 5 (3 children) found the hotel to offer very good value for money. We have lived in other […] much more lux hotels, but wanted to spend more out on town than on sleeping. We decided to make use of the hotels "taxi" service and did not regret this. Polite and pleasent trip to the hotel. The hotel itself can prove difficult to find since you mere find a doorbell together with lots of other on the outside. On the 2nd floor you are met by pleasent and serviceminded staff. The hotel is tiny and an "Inn" as announced. The room was nothing fancy, but clean, free wi-fi, minibar, mini-safe and tv. The room was neatly cleaned every day. The area was peaceful and with the exception from som schreeching staircase which you might hear in the morning. This however was not a problem for us since this only starts at breakfast time. Our room (123) had window facing the street, but with little traffic this was no problem. The breakfast was simple, but good. The hotel clientel when we were there was two other parties with children, and then people in their 40 ties and above. Peacful setting. We loved the location and you are litterarly only 1-2 min away from the Pantheon walls. Based upon our needs for our stay we were positively surprised by the hotel and felt very welcomed by the the friendly staff. If (when) going back to Rome we will definitly evaluate the "Inn" as a place to stay. Read more

Great hotel in a great location. Only 1 minute from the Pantheon and 5 minutes from the Trevi fountain, it really is in the heart of Rome. The staff are excellent and can't do enough to help. Our room was clean and comfy. A little noisy first thing in the morning as it was directly under the breakfast room but that can be forgiven for all the positives. We […] would certainly go back here to visit Rome again. Read more

The Pantheon Inn is in a key location for Roam's attractions just watchout for the restorants as they can be expensive becouse of its location.The staff were very helpfull and there is a small lift if required

Genuine Expedia guest review

As mentioned in other reviews the hotel is well hidden. We looked on Google street map to be sure we knew where it was and still walked past it. However, once found it's very quirky and rather charming. Room was basic but generally worked (apart from the bathroom extractor) and was clean. The staff (we saw 2) were helpful and friendly with excellent […] English. Breakfast is a perfectly edible continental cold buffet. The most important thing, unless you are after luxury, is the location. Slap bang in the middle of everything. Using the Pantheon as your central location works very well and it is 100 meters from the hotel. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

This hotel is just round the back of the Pantheon, approx 2 mins walk from it- if you manage to get it for a fair rate, the convenience of the location will outweigh the little niggles that the hotel has. The location puts you bang in the middle of Rome and is far far easier than having a hotel out near the Vatican or Termini station-you can really […] walk everywhere on your city break. However, the little niggles do build up, so I would not recommend staying here for two weeks or so! The hotel is located on the 'second' floor (actually, the third if you don't count floors like a Roman)- there is a small lift, but we didn't use it. The exterior of the building is not marked clearly (no big hotel sign), apart from on the buzzer, so make sure that you know the address! The hotel was clearly a large apartment that has been divided into rooms, with a breakfast room upstairs in the roof space. The rooms were small, but normal size for Rome. They had been reasonably recently refurbished, I would guess around 2000-2005. They were furnished in a 'Roman' style-thing orange feature wall, dark brown wood. Not the most modern or expensive renovation, but to the hotel's credit, many Roman hotels have not been updated in a long time. Now the niggles. There was a weird smell that never quite went away-I think it was something to do with the pipes. This was in our bathroom and a toilet in the waiting area and got really annoying. We had to open the window as the air con only made the smell worse. The ventilation for our bathroom (no window) wasn't successful in eliminating it. The hotel was also relatively poorly noise-proofed-you could hear other guests in the corridor, sitting in the lounge area or watching TV. Our room was on the back, so no street noise. The noise from the hotel could be quite considerable at times: the hotel staff did not seem to realise that one person on the phone in the lounge area could be heard so well throughout the hotel, and did not try to reduce the no Read more

Staff were so extremely helpful and friendly in this characterful hotel in a central location perfect for a family visit in February. We could walk everywhere: Pantheon a few yards away of course, but also walked to Roman sites, St Peter's/Vatican, Trevi, Spanish Steps etc, even spotted some politicos outside Parliament! From room we could see bells […] of church opposite chiming. Hotel in a very quiet location - a nice surprise given previous impressions formed of Rome's traffic. We walked from Termini station on a sunny Sunday and found the hotel pretty easily. The location on Google Maps is spot on. Look for wooden double door with panel of buzzers past the Barberi outfitters to left of the Hotel Minerva. It's on upper floors but there is a lift. We stayed in Room 124 and 122 over a 3 night stay. If you want a lazy, relaxed morning then maybe 124 isn't for you as it's right under the breakfast room but was ideal for four of us - a light spacious room with windows in both bedroom and bathroom and we made early starts anyway so not troubled by upstairs noise. 122 a bigger room with beautiful ceiling, not under the breakfast room but an enclosed bathroom (although with a better shower!) as possible downside to some? Both rooms atmospheric with charming period furniture. Standard continental breakfast choice was fine - giant prunes were amazing! Staff were all charming, smiling, friendly, gave good advice on nearby restaurants etc. Many thanks to all at the Pantheon Inn. Read more

The only negative aspect of the hotel was that it is hard to find, so a taxi or airport transfer would be strongly advised. The hotel is tucked away in an apartment building that is very charming and typically Italian. The staff were very helpful providing maps and advice about local restaurants. On our first night the hotel gave us a business card […] for a restaurant where we were then served a free bottle of wine. The staff also advised us (very rightly!) that a taxi to the airport would be both cheaper and easier for our return home, they accurately told us how much it would cost and booked it for us. There were no hidden costs (we were made aware about the small tax on hotels in Rome early on). The best thing about the hotel was the location. About a minute's walk from the Pantheon and very central to the rest of Rome - we walked to Trevi fountain, piazza navona and the archaeological sites with ease. For the vatican and other further afield sites the number 40 bus runs by the 'argentina' stop, which is less than 5 minutes walk away. Included breakfast was very good, the rooms were spacious and the quality of the bathroom particularly was high. We were a group of 5 friends so having two 3 bed rooms suited us perfectly. We were pleasantly surprised to find the third bed in both rooms was a 'proper' bed which was comfy. Read more

Interesting hotel..Not that easy to find (just a door buzzer outside two gigantic black doors!) but nice hotel for the money. Bedroom nicely furnished, bathroom modern but the mattresses could do with being a little thicker on the single beds (asked for a twin via hotels.com and after being paraded round 3 different rooms we eventually got a room with […] a double and a single bed that looked like it was designed for a children's hospital!) Breakfast ok and was as expected. The coffee however - good god it was horrible! If the owners do anything to change their service - please change the coffee machine!! Serving chicory instant coffee should not be allowed in Italy!!!! We would definitely go back (but we might skip the coffee!!!) Read more
