About

Tiburtina House

Tiburtina House sits on a private, guarded street in a quiet residential pocket of Rome, about a 25-minute walk from the Borghese Gallery and Museum. With just a handful of rooms, it feels more like a guesthouse than a hotel – the kind of place where the owner remembers your arrival time and sorts out a parking spot personally.

Rooms are modern and spotless, with air conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and tea and coffee facilities. The double room can be configured with a king, a double, or two single beds, which makes it flexible for couples or friends. Breakfast is served at a nearby café, and the Bologna metro station is a short stroll away for easy access to the centre.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Excellent staff and service — Guests repeatedly praise the owner's friendliness, English ability, and quick problem-solving – from fixing a shower to arranging parking spots.
  • Great transport links — Bologna metro is a five-minute walk, with major bus lines nearby, making it easy to reach all of Rome's main sights.
  • Modern, clean rooms — Rooms are described as new, spotless, and comfortable, with air conditioning and flat-screen TVs.
  • Quiet and safe location — The hotel sits on a private, guarded street in a residential area, which guests found calm and secure even at night.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small scale, limited services — With only five rooms, this is more a guesthouse than a full hotel – breakfast is served at a nearby café, and services are minimal.
  • Breakfast location can change — Breakfast is usually at a local coffee shop, but if it's closed, you may be directed to an alternative (the Roma Rooms). This adds a small variable to your morning.
  • Arrival coordination required — You need to text your arrival time about 20 minutes ahead, as the same person manages both properties. This is a minor extra step for guests.
  • Parking is limited and surcharged — Public parking is available but costs €10 per day, and securing a spot may require emailing ahead – reservations are not guaranteed instantly.
