Editorial
Hotel overview
Residence Balduina offers straightforward, practical accommodation in a peaceful Roman neighborhood. The hotel features simple studios and one-bedroom apartments, each equipped with its own kitchen, providing flexibility for travelers who prefer self-catering. The property centers around a modest courtyard, adding a calm atmosphere to the stay.
Located in Rome’s hilly Balduina quarter, guests are close to markets, urban parks, and a main street with convenient public transit options. This area blends a quiet residential vibe with accessibility to major Vatican landmarks, including Saint Peter’s Basilica and the Sistine Chapel, popular for art lovers and history enthusiasts.
While basic, the hotel offers amenities like air conditioning and paid Wi-Fi, but lacks services such as breakfast or airport shuttles. The communal coin laundry on the ground floor adds convenience for longer visits. Some travelers note a small lift and no fitness facilities, aligning the stay with guests prioritizing location and practicality over luxury.

Guest reviews
What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“The room is nice. Their amenities are quite stocked and well prepared. Free weekly change of linens and towels. There is a communal coin laundry room and dryer in the ground floor too. Relatively close to groceries, minimarts, and other shops. Near 990 bus stop because located in a main street. The building manager, Signora Adriana, speaks english fluently and super helpful and friendly. The only downside is the lift is quite small.”
“Good place to stay if longer than a weekend. Suites have kitchenetts and free wi fi. Washing machines available”
