Hotels Close To Vatican City and St Peter's Rome

Hotel Accommodation In The Vicinity Of Vatican City

Crowne Plaza St Peter's
Crowne Plaza St Peter's Rome

Hotels close to Vatican City are readily found just outside the Vatican City walls in the Prati district, a middle-class suburb just north and north east of the Vatican itself.

There are numerous small affordable pensions in the area offering relatively cheap and good quality accommodation, these we discuss in a separate dedicated page for budget hotels near to the Vatican.


Although the area has a lot of these small pensions, its also got as many standard three and four star hotels too. There are very few chain hotels with familiar names in the district. Perhaps the notable exceptions are the two NH hotels listed below and a Best Western franchised hotel, the Spring House, also listed below.


There is a Crowne Plaza hotel called the Crown Plaza St Peter's which despite its name is about 3kms (2 miles) from the Vatican itself.

However, just going this short way away from the city does reward you with very good value rates. The grounds of the Crowne Plaza are also more spacious than anything you will get in the city and has room for facilities like a swimming pool.


The Prati area where most of the hotels are is a middle class area abounding in shopping streets less expensive than those found in central Rome, and street crime isn't much of a problem.

Line A of the Rome Metro cuts right through the middle of the district with 3 stations, so you are never far away from quick transport over the river to the ancient city of Rome itself.
