Simple traditional
The Hotel Santa Maria is located just off the Piazza Santa Maria, in the charming district of Trastevere. The old winding streets are famous for their many authentic Italian restaurants and bars and guests are within easy walking distance of the centre of Rome.
The Hotel Santa Maria proves that hotels do not have to be ostentatious to earn the rubric ‘luxury hotel’. Formerly a 16th century cloister, this historic building was fully renovated in 2000 to create a boutique hotel with a wealth of character. All of the 20 guest rooms are at ground floor level and are set around a charming courtyard of orange trees where a hearty breakfast is served each morning.
Space is not at a premium here, and many suites can easily accommodate a family of 6. Tiled floors, wooden furniture and wrought iron bedheads add a traditional Tuscan feel to the 20 guestrooms. Bicycles and a computer in the lobby are provided for guests, although there is no WiFi. A unique treat for guests of the Hotel Santa Maria is the sunset tour around the medieval streets, accompanied by the telling of local stories and legends.
The Hotel Santa Maria is one of the most individual and charming boutique hotels in Rome. Offering reasonable prices and authentic historic accommodation, this is a highly recommended base to stay for visitors wishing to explore central Rome.
