About

La Residenza City

La Residenza City is a small guest house set on the third floor of a residential building on Via Emanuele Filiberto. It sits roughly a 6-minute walk from the Basilica di San Giovanni in Laterano and about a 25-minute stroll from the Altar of the Fatherland. The location is a practical base for exploring Rome, with the metro and Roma Termini within easy reach.

The guest house keeps things simple: Wi-Fi throughout, air conditioning and heating in the rooms, and tea and coffee facilities. Breakfast is included, and staff are consistently praised for being welcoming and helpful. With only a handful of rooms and no pets allowed, it suits travellers who want a no-frills, well-placed place to sleep rather than a full-service hotel.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Location is not in the historic center — While close to public transport and the Colosseum, the guest house is a 25-minute walk from the Altar of the Fatherland, and some guests found it a bit far from the center.
  • Rooms can be small and basic — As a guest house rather than a full hotel, rooms are described as cozy, and some guests noted minor issues like hairs in the shower.
  • Check-in window is limited — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 19:00, which may be inconvenient for arrivals outside that window.
