The front desk personnel were so friendly and helpful. The housekeeper who showed us our room went out of her way to be nice to us, and she had a wonderful way about her that made us feel welcome.
...
The breakfasts were excellent, the kitchen staff were so courteous and the coffee was the best! The front dest staff were so helpful recommending restaurants, and giving us directions to points of interest.
...
They got us a taxi right away for the train station and always had a smile on their faces for us.
...
The Vatican is only meters away, and we didn't realize it was so close. Also, from Hotel Bramante, we walked everywhere.
...
A quaint little boutique hotel nesstled into a quiet neighborhood only meters fromthe Vatican. We loved walking the narrow, cobblestone streets of Rome that surrounded our hotel. Also loved the newly renovated, very clean rooms and great bathrooms.

The staff were very friendly and professional.
...
The only problem was a lack of parking, otherwise the hotel was excellent.
...
The fact that parking is not available. In other words that one needs to park either on the street or in a very expensive private parking.
...
An excellent hotel that is very well located. I would return happily to the hotel.

The Bramante was an ecellent choice for my stay in Rome. Excellent hotel, excellent location, staff couldn't be more helpful.
I would thoroughly recommend this hotel.
...
Quaint, homely and very friendly staff and atmosphere.
...
Transport from and to the airport was arranged by hotel staff.
Also was presented with a personal gift from the hotel Bramante on departure.
...
The location is ideal for the first time traveller to Rome. A stones throw from the Vatican. The next street was where all the stop and go tour buses were parked. Excellent location.
...
An ideal hotel, ideal staff, ideal location. Staff could not have been more helpful.

The breakfast was a delight with a marvellous selection of food.
The situation is perfect for the Vatican.
All in all we were both very very impressed with everything.

The hotel was unexpectedly quiet and the little courtyard outside was a real bonus, especially in Rome.
...
We did have an issue with the charge for our airport pick up - the price quoted had risen in the period between our booking and our stay. This was dealt with extremely well by the hotel staff and we were delighted with their attentioon to our somewhat tentative enquiry as to the anomaly.
...
We would reccommend it unhesitatingly to anyone wanting to stay in the area near St Peter's. Any requests we made of staff - ideas as to where to eat out etc. or tours were dealt with pleasantly and efficiently.All staff were happy and cheerful, willing to help in any way.

The entire staff greeted us as if we were old friends. Check-in experience was very easy.
...
The property is very clean and quiet. There is a very nice outdoor patio on the second floor. The Breakfast(included in our stay)had an excellent selection of cereal, fresh fruit, fresh pasteries, etc. The serving lady made sure we were happy.
Owners of the hotel are on premise, very gracious and work to make sure all guests are accomodated.
...
The hotel is located only 2 blocks from St Peters Square. Also, there are several nice indoor/outdoor cafes located within two blocks of the hotel.
...
The Bramante is a very friendly place with large clean rooms, great ambiance, and excellent location. The prices are reasonable.

Our welcome was very warm and friendly. The receptionist spoke English well and made the check in very comfortable.
...
The staff was the nicest I've encountered in any of my travels. The breakfasts were delicious and plentiful. The hotel was lovely and very accomodating to our requests.
...
The hotel arranged for a driver to the airport who was there early for the pickup. They made it very clear (in front of the driver) what the cost would be to us. We experienced no problems with our check out morning.
...
A quietly elegant hotel with a superb staff in a great location for touring Rome. There are some great restaurants and cafes close by and the proximity to the Vatican can not be beat. We will definately stay there again.

The hotel had offered us the opportunity of being collected at the airport by car (at our expense), so we had no need of directions. It was worth the added expense to arrive in air-conditioned comfort.
...
The staff could not have been friendlier or more helpful and the facilities could not be faulted.
...
Staff efficient and helpful.
...
Only that its location is further from some of the sites than first time visitors to Rome might expect. It is, of course, perfectly situated for St Peters and the Vatican.
Contrary to some comments that I saw on-line, English is spoken.
...
Friendly, intimate, welcoming, a valid alternative to the usual large chains.

We were extremely pleased with our welcome. The receptionist knew who we were when we walked in the door. Not only did he show us around the charming hotel and get us settled, but also pulled out a map of Roma for us and shared all the places we'd want to visit (...it was the first trip to Italy for both us gals) and gave us the inside scope on shopping and staying safe during our site seeing. Right away it felt as if we were staying at the home of friends and family.
...
We orginally tried to find a hotel closer to the the center of the city, and some friends who knew Roma thought we might be disappointed staying in this section of the city, but we thought it worked out great being only a few blocks from the Vatican. It was lively during the day, but quiet at night and felt very safe. We were able to get in line early for the Vatican sites being a two minute walk away. Also catching an open air touring bus without waiting was another added perk. (As we took the bus around the city, the more popular tourist hotel areas had very long lines to board the buses!) Finally, there were some great little cafes with wonderful food right around the corner.
We look forward to staying at Hotel Bramante the next time we travel to Roma and would recommend it to our own friends and family.
...
The day before we were to leave, the desk offered to make our limo arrangements to the airport for the next morning and everything went smoothly.
...
Hotel Bramante is a elegent charming little hotel where you are treated like family. They take very good care of their guests!

About parking place : I think the indications are not so clear. If you want to park the car safetly, it has to be in a private parking (close to the Hotel ) and pay 25 Euros a day.
...
It is a nice place , well located, very close to Vatican. It is clean and confortable. The personal is very friendly and helpful specially in the reception.

The room was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. It was quiet and extremely comfortable. The staff was exceptional and met every one of our needs as guests at the hotel.

It was easy and efficient. The staff also called a taxi for us and helped us carry our luggage out to the taxi to get us on our way quickly.
...
The breakfasts are fantastic! The assortment of fruits, pastries, cereals, nuts, veggies, etc. are incredible and really stayed with us throughout the day. The women who serve the breakfasts are wonderful, too.
...
I would recommend it with great enthusiasm and the location within the city is perfect.

Our brief stay at the Hotel Bramante was delightful.
...
Our room was more than we had expected.
The only thing I missed was having small packets of coffee along with tea bags.
But the spacious room was well appointed and the bathroom modern and clean.
...
Everything was perfect....our wake up call,
Taxi ordered for us arrived a few minutes early.
Our luggage was put in the car for us.
The Mercedes was clean, the driver polite and drove safely. The check out staff was very friendly and helpful.
Breakfast was made available to us even for our early departure.
...
The Hotel Bramante was highly recommended to us for its friendliness, cleanliness, comfortable and great location for exploring Rome. We were not disappointed and would chose to stay here again on subsequent trips to Rome.
Good value for money.

This is Alice Loveman, Jim Loveman's mother, I made all the reservations. We had a contact in Rome to take us on a tour and recommend sites to visit. Perhaps next time I'll use the vacation planner.
...
No need to.
...
Easy and helpful.
...
Very friendly and professional. We felt welcomed immediately. I loved walking past the furniture restoration shops on the street and seeing the artisans at work, it only added to the charm of Hotel Bramante. I wish I could have purchased a fine old piece of furniture to bring home with me.
...
Hotel Bramante was recommended to us by friends who had stayed there. I was so busy in Rome I wish I had a longer stay at the Bramante so I could have enjoyed the little interior patio or shop in the furniture restoration shops on the same street. It was nice to be in a location so close to the Vatican.
Our rooms were quiet at night and we enjoyed the variety of beautiful foods in the breakfast room: eggs as ordered, pots of hot coffee, fruit, tomatoes, cheeses, eggs, breads, pastry, cereal and on and on.
...
Although I haven't traveled out of the United States often, I must say it was a good value for the money since Hotel Bramante was highly recommended to us by good friends who are world travelers.
Regarding 'checking out' there was confusion regarding my sons earlier departure for the airport. We were charged for his limo service to the airport, but he also paid the driver 90 Euro dollars. I will write Hotel Bramante about that.
...
charming, friendly, clean and quiet and in a good locatin.

The hotel is beautifully kept up and always very clean. Our room was a haven to return to after a full day of sight seeing in Rome.
...
The staff was very helpful in giving us advice about setting up transfers for the next leg of our trip to the Amalfi Coast. Antonio, at the front desk, was so helpful and really went beyond our expectations to help us set up necessary transportation. He is an exceptional 'ambassador' for Rome and the Hotel Bramante.
...
The Hotel Bramante is like finding a slice of authentic Italy in the shadow of a very sacred site, the Vatican. It is tucked away behind the ancient walls that once defined the city borders. The quaint streets surrounding the Bramante are quiet and mostly filled with locals, not tourists, although heavy tourist traffic is only one block away. It is a safe, easy walk into old Rome and a good way to work off all the extra calories you've been consuming while taking in Roman life.

I had one problem at check-out. I had e-mailed about having the cost pre-paid on my company's credit card, but at check-out (which was very early in the morning), the staff person, who was working alone, had no record of that and I had to put the cost on my personal credit card.
...
The small patio-courtyard was a very nice place to spend some quiet moments - I didn't expect that. The hotel was beautiful, and the staff very friendly. I've stayed in a number of hotels in Rome and the Bramante's rooms were very quiet, clean and of a good size for a Rome hotel. The location was perfect, as well.
...
The Bramante is a beautiful small hotel just steps from the Vatican and restaurants. The rooms looked completely renovated, yet they still felt like Rome, and the staff was very accommodating.

Absolutely perfect for short breaks where the Vatican, Sistine Chapel and St. Peters are important for the visitor to get to in a short space of time.

Small, friendly B&B that is functional and well placed for a quick trip to Rome. The rooms are moderately sized with high ceilings. Each room is different and gives a feel of a family home. The terrace is lovely for an evening drink or afternoon cup of tea!

Excellent attitude from manager. Showed me around room and explained everything clearly.

The hotel provided a small departing gift which was a lovely gesture and one I have not got from many other 'premium' hotels I have stayed in.
...
Charming small, but very intimate hotel. While off the beaten track (to find) it is close to metro and st. peters and while from the outside does not look very positive, inside it is totally modern and the original features add to the charm. This hotel is rated highly by Lonely Planet and this is where I spotted it and it lived up to its billing.

Hotel (Veronica) arranged for a driver who arrived in a timely manner and got us to the hotel in a timely way. That is a very important service in Rome.
...
Hotel staff was excellent. The morning breakfast was most enjoyable with gracious ladies attending to our requests. Room was as expected with the only complaint being noises from adjoining rooms and/or aprtments.
...
Driver arranged for trip to port,which,again is a critical service when you have luggage for a 2 week cruise of Italy.
...
Maybe you could emphasize the proximity to St. Peter's a little more. Location is excellent.
...
That the hotel was a quintessential Rome hotel-small,friendly,with good service. Having stayed in Rome on 3 other occasions at much larger hotels I appreciated the comparison.
