What guests think
Across many reviews, Hotel Nova Domus Aurelia earns strong praise for friendly, helpful staff, generally clean, comfortable rooms, and convenient access to buses and the Vatican within easy walking distance in a safe area.
Common drawbacks include a less central location for other sights and dining, hilly walks to the metro, small or cramped showers, occasional maintenance issues or odors, street noise in some rooms, and very small elevators. Breakfast is generally liked for variety and value, though some guests mention basic items, weak coffee, or limited fruit and special-diet options. Expect a straightforward, value stay near the Vatican with kind service.

Muito boa hospedagem. Elevadores pequenos. Café da manhã apenas com 01 tipo de pão, mas com uma variedade simples as boa de outros nutrientes. Em frente tem a parada de ônibus , 3 paradas do Vaticano. Ticket 1,50 compra no Hotel e pode passear de ônibus ou metro por 100 minutos. Quartos muito confortável e excelente limpeza. Volto com certeza.

The breakfast had decent croissants but the eggs were very dark, the shower did function well and as I spoke to other guest all the shower heads were acting up. The staff are amazing. I only stayed because my son was there for a soccer program. The iron is not in the room. When I asked for one it was so small it looked like a kids toy iron.

The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of storage in the rooms. We would absolutely stay here again next time we are in Rome!

Le personnel était au top, à l'écoute et agréable. Le petit déjeuner correct avec du choix et des horaires assez larges pour les lèves tôt ou lèves tard. La literie confortable.Le gros bémol fût la propreté dans la chambre. Les murs étaient sales et l'odeur dans la douche était très désagréable. Cela sentait les remontées d'égouts en permanence. Dommage car le reste était top.

The hotel staff is very friendly and caring. Good breakfast. In terms of location, it is not a central point with walking distance to major attractions, but it is within less than 10 minutes of walking distance to metro station that allows to reach anywhere in Rome. Considering that the hotel is old, it definitely needs to take care of some maintenance issues and also do some non major plumbing work. For example, water occasionally drops from the air conditioner straight to the floor, toilet seat is old and comes out and so on. Overall, I was very satisfied with my stay there again.

Great hotel. Great service. The front staff helped with getting a taxi. Excellent breakfast. The room was very spacious for a family of two adults and two teenage kids. The only issue I had was the shower had mold. I would just recommend to have the shower cleaned properly. However, I would stay again.

There are pros and cons with this hotel. The pros are it is a clean, modern hotel with spacious rooms and a good full breakfast buffet. The cons are the location. The 7 subway stops (12 min) from Termini was not bad, but the walk from the Valle Aurailia station was terrible. It’s was a treacherous, confusing 10 min uphill hike along a busy high speed road with little or no sidewalks. (Hint: exit the station to the right, go through the tunnel, then take an immediate left u-turn up a flight of stairs. At the top of the stairs go left along the treacherous road). Also except for a small market and a one table wine bar, there is nothing else in the immediate area. An 8 min walk down 2 sets of steep stairs (50+ stairs each) you will find a nice neighborhood center with some restaurants and a supermarket. And if you think it’s close to Vatican City, think again. It’s near one of the outer walls, but it’s a hilly 20+ minute walk to the nearest entry gate.

It has been a pleasant and comfortable stay in this hotel. The staff were all friendly and I highly commented Gaya and Emmanuel who has been helpful answering our queries giving us directions. Rooms were big for 4 people, we can still able to walk without bumping into each other. Everyday after a day out, we came back with clean bedroom and fresh linen. The location is about 15 minutes walk to the Vatican City. Bus is also just across the hotel, bus 46 and 49 to catch if you want to go to the Vatican City. The metro station which is Via Aurelia is about 10 mins away to the hotel. Breakfast were great, plenty of selection from scramble egg, bacon, sausages, salami, cereals, fruits, bread and pastries. Ove all I will definitely coming back to this girl

Once again the guys on the front desk make the difference. Good job there.

I gave 3 star as my shower was clogged for 2 days and I was unable to take shower. It did not help bringing attention repeatedly to the front desk tall guy as he really did not seem to care. However, there was a lady in the front desk on 9th morning who immediately took care of it. She was extremely efficient as she helped to call taxi and took care of my bathroom light. so for her I will give 5 star and for the tall guy, 2 star: otherwise the room was clean and breakfast was great. Only one restaurant close by.

Struttura nuova, camere spartane ma ottima pulizia e personale cordiale e disponibile. La posizione è abbastanza scomoda in quanto non vi sono stazioni metro nelle vicinanze e, pur essendo a breve distanza dai musei vaticani, la sera la zona è poco frequentata. La colazione, pur abbastanza fornita, non mi è sembrata di ottima qualità.

close to the Vatican and area, bus lines bring you everywhere else, right outside the door. Bus tickets 1.5 euros one way, good for an hour. Good breakfast and very clean

The hotel staff is very friendly and caring. Good breakfast. In terms of location, it is not a central point with walking distance to major attractions, but it is within less than 10 minutes of walking distance to metro station that allows to reach anywhere in Rome. Considering that the hotel is old, it definitely needs to take care of some maintenance issues and also do some non major plumbing work. For example, water occasionally drops from the air conditioner straight to the floor, toilet seat is old and comes out and so on. Overall, I was very satisfied with my stay there again.

Our room was very clean!!! Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The location unbeatable- steps from the Vatican, and an easy walk to some great restaurants. The continental breakfast was the best I’ve ever had. Tons of options, great coffee! I’d definitely stay here again. Stayed with children- awesome and affordable for a family travelling!

This is the hotel with the best service I ever had!!! The employees were super helpful and friendly with all of our requests. Five stars!! If I had to ask for anything, I would’ve liked to see more vegan/dairy free options in the breakfast. Other than that, very happy with our visit.

Personal sehr bemüht und freundlich, konnten bereits um 11 Uhr ins Zimmer Bushaltestelle direkt gegenüber vom Hotel mit Verbindung ins Zentrum (ca. 15-20 Minuten) Zimmer sehr hellhörig. Man hört leider in der Nacht Verkehr und alles im Stiegenhaus Frühstück sehr einfach gehalten und nicht sehr viel Auswahl. Für einen Städtetrip zu empfehlen

My family of six stayed here for 4 nights while we explored Rome. It is not a far walk from the metro station. We felt the area was safe. The hotel itself was clean and the employees were friendly and helpful. The included breakfast was VERY good with many options that pleased all tastes. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of storage in the rooms. We would absolutely stay here again next time we are in Rome!

El hotel está justo enfrente de una parada de autobús, muy conveniente. Está cerca de la zona del Vaticano. La localización y los cuartos para 4 personas…aunque pequeños son adecuados. El refrigerador no enfriaba. Algo que podrían mejorar es en el desayuno ya que el café no es bueno, para ser Italia. Y el pan tampoco, podrían ser de tamaño más pequeño, pero de mejor calidad. La variedad de los frutos también es limitada.

The breakfast selection and quality was a pleasant surprise. Really didn't expect them to be that well made. Bus stop right outfront, going directly to the Pantheon and other sights. A pleasant and quiet stay.
