About
Principe Guesthouse
Principe Guesthouse sits on Via Principe Amedeo, a 10-minute walk from Termini, Rome’s main railway and Metro hub. The location makes it easy to reach the airport and the city’s key sights, while the surrounding streets hold a mix of local eateries and shops.
The guesthouse is run by Victoria, whose hands-on approach draws consistent praise. Rooms are cleaned daily, towels are changed, and the common kitchen comes with tea and coffee facilities. It's a small, family-like setup rather than an anonymous hotel — suited to travellers who want straightforward comfort without the big-chain experience.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
5 reasons to book- Host who goes the extra mile — Victoria is mentioned in nearly every review for her helpfulness — from late check-in waits to maps and sightseeing advice. She's described as welcoming, good company, and attentive.
- Unbeatable location for transport — A 10-minute walk from Termini station and even closer to a Metro stop, so you can reach the airport and city sights without a transfer. Many reviewers note the ease of getting around.
- Daily housekeeping — Rooms are cleaned every day, towels are changed, and the private bathrooms — though small — are consistently described as spotless.
- Honest value for the class — Several guests highlight the reasonable prices for the location, especially with breakfast inclusions like a proper espresso. The facilities score (9.0) backs up the sense of good value.
- Practical in-room extras — Each room has a kettle, tea and coffee facilities, and a flat-screen TV. The common kitchen adds flexibility for those who want to prepare simple meals.

Worth weighing
5 to weigh- Pricing can feel steep for some — One reviewer said the guesthouse shares the 'overprice' problem of the city. At £135 per night, you're paying for the location as much as the room itself.
- Small private bathrooms — The bathrooms are clean but on the smaller side — fine for a short stay, less ideal if you want space.
- No pets allowed — If you travel with a pet, this isn't the place — the policy is strictly no animals on site.
- Limited room types — The only listed option is a quadruple room, so if you're a solo traveller or a couple, you may have to book more space than you need — or look elsewhere.
- Check-in window ends at 22:00 — If you're arriving on a late flight or long train, note that check-in is only from 14:00 to 22:00. Late arrivals need to coordinate with the host.
