We had such a pleasant stay here. The very friendly and helpful staff, warm atmosphere, good, clean and comfortable rooms, excellent breakfast and convenient location for walking or using public transport to reach so many of the interesting places to see in the city make the San Francesco an excellent place to stay in Rome. Far better than some hotels... More

I spent a week here at the Hotel San Francesco before taking the train across Italia from Roma to Venezia for another week. I cannot say enough good things about this hotel, I think it was one of the nicest AFFORDABLE hotels I have ever stayed at. As an Italian-American who had never before visited "the Old Country" I was... More

We stayed in this hotel for our first 3 nights in Italy and I didn't want to leave! Friendly and helpful staff, clean and glistening bathroom, clean, comfortable and fully equipped bedroom, a delightful continental breakfast and a picturesque rooftop bar where we recuperated after a hard day's sightseeing before heading out to the local restaurants and bars. Even the... More

Nice small hotel in Trastavere area of Rome. Close to lots of cool bars and nice restaurants. Easy to travel to the main sights by bus or taxis as we found they weren’t too expensive. We weren’t too far from the Coliseum. The reception area is very nice and staff friendly enough. Our room was very small and very dark,... More

We were a family of 8 adults travelling around Italy for 2 weeks, and we spent our last 5 nights at this wonderful boutique hotel. We wanted to stay in Trastevere, across the Tiber River, so that we could be out of the "Rome madness". We're so very glad we did. The hotel is a 10 Euro cab ride (about... More

The hotel was a good price in a good location. We ended up with an extra night in Rome, but our other hotel was booked, so we booked Hotel San Francesco on short notice because it was nearby. The staff was friendly, breakfast was good, the room was clean and sufficient. The two standouts were the bathroom, which was huge... More

We actually stayed in this hotel in February 2010, but the review date options did not go back that far. Sorry for the lateness of the review. Six of us went to Rome for the Scotland /Italy rugby match and we chose this hotel based on the reviews and the price. It is a little out of the centre of... More

This hotel is terrible. It ruined our last night in Rome. The woman on reception was very unhelpful after we complained that the air conditioning didn't work although she assured us it did and we ended up having to sleep with wet towels on our head. We couldn't open the window as it was very noisy outside and our view... More

Dear Guest, I am very sorry for your bad experience at Hotel San Francesco. I can not understand what happened since the guest who previously stayed in the same room you had did not complain about the air conditioning. And no complains from the guest who stayed there on following day. The receptionist told me your faces were incredibly red... More

Really enjoyed this hotel, despite the small size of the room... It was very clean, with a modern, generous bathroom, nice decor and a very appealing breakfast room overlooking a private garden. The service was friendly but unobtrusive, and the location was convenient for trams into central Rome or a 5-minute stroll to the cobbled streets of Trastevere, where restaurants... More

This hotel is in an excellent location in the middle of the more bohemian side of Rome. The staff are very friendly and readily changed my mothers room to a higher floor as the first was a bit small with no window in the bathroom. The rooms in general are fine, the fittings are slightly worn but the bathrooms are... More
