About

Nicolas Inn - Rome

Nicolas Inn - Rome is a compact inn of just six rooms on Via Cavour, one of Rome's classic central streets. It sits within a five-minute walk of Palatine Hill, placing you amid the city's ancient heart. The property keeps things simple: Wi-Fi in every room, a safe for valuables, and tea and coffee facilities.

Rooms are equipped for comfort rather than extravagance. Expect air conditioning and heating, flat-screen TVs, and mini-bars. Superior options add landscape or city views, and the triple room works well for small groups. With a small guest count, the atmosphere is quiet and personal, and reviews consistently single out the attentive staff for arranging taxis and offering local advice.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Central location near ancient sights — Within a five-minute walk of Palatine Hill and a short stroll to the Colosseum, with a metro station close by for exploring further afield.
  • Helpful, attentive staff — Guests frequently mention staff going out of their way—providing maps, recommendations, and even arranging taxis for luggage.
  • Spacious, comfortable rooms — Rooms are described as spacious with large beds, some offering city or landscape views, and all include air conditioning and heating.
  • Quiet courtyard retreat — A courtyard view provides a peaceful escape from the city bustle, even in the heart of Rome.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small property, limited facilities — With only six rooms and no on-site restaurant or bar, the inn is basic—there's no lift, and common areas are minimal.
  • Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 21:00, so late arrivals need to plan ahead or coordinate with the property.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this isn't the place—the property doesn't permit them.
  • Price point for the class — At around £103 per night for a 3-star inn, some guests may find the rate steep given the compact size, though the location helps justify it.
