About this property

Tucked into the Aurelio district on Rome's western edge, Tempio del Sole carries the quiet confidence of a property that knows exactly what it is: a refined four-star retreat within comfortable reach of the Vatican and St. Peter's Basilica. This part of the city moves at a gentler pace than the historic centre, offering guests a residential authenticity that the more tourist-heavy neighbourhoods simply cannot match. With a guest rating of 9.2 out of 10, it is clearly doing something right, and those who stay here tend to leave with the feeling that they found a corner of Rome that most visitors overlook entirely. The accommodation at Tempio del Sole centres on a generously sized apartment with a private terrace, making it far more liveable than a standard hotel room for anyone spending more than a night or two in the city. A kitchenette means you can pick up supplies from the local market and eat at your own pace, while the terrace provides a genuinely personal space to unwind with a view of the city around you. The on-site restaurant means you are never without a proper meal, and the outdoor swimming pool elevates the whole experience considerably for warmer months. Parking is available on site, which is a real convenience in a city where driving can be daunting, and free WiFi keeps things practical throughout the stay. Tempio del Sole suits independent travellers and couples particularly well, especially those who prefer the feel of a well-appointed apartment over conventional hotel stays. Families spending an extended time in Rome will also appreciate the added space and self-catering options. With Fiumicino Airport reachable in roughly half an hour by car, arrivals and departures are refreshingly uncomplicated.

Very good location, a five-minute walk from the Battistini metro station. The apartment is spacious and has a very large terrace.

Janet welcomed us warmly to her beautiful apartment. The terrace is very large and pleasant. The beds are comfortable, and Janet was very attentive and gave us helpful tips for our first time in Rome.

"Holiday apartment with good access to the city center"

Translated from German

Liked

The landlady, Janet, and her husband are very kind and helpful (the Wi-Fi wasn't working upon arrival, and they both did everything they could to fix it). The rooftop terrace is huge, there's a washing machine, free air conditioning, and mosquito nets on the windows and balcony doors. You can reach the metro in 10 minutes at most, and from there it's a quick trip to the city center.

Disliked

Nothing, just a few minor things: our daughter didn't find the sofa bed comfortable. I missed having storage space for our groceries in the kitchen. And the Wi-Fi only started working on the day before last, as mentioned above. But that's all sorted now.
