Honest Review - Do not bother with this property
This should have been a nice relaxing mini honeymoon for my wife and I however the trip got off to a very bad start when we arrived at the property. Upon arrival there was no one to meet us, after calling several contact numbers we were eventually told that the property is closed and you will have to find another property! We spent ages on the phone to hotels.com to which we ended up having to pay for another hotel down the road for the night! (which was much nicer). In the morning we returned to this property expecting to go straight into our room... it turns out that they had double booked our room and someone has stayed in it the night before so it was not ready! I immediately demanded a refund for the previous night to which the guy said he needed to confirm with his boss. Finally we got into our room which was nothing like the photos on the website. the shower was pathetic with mould all around the bath seals, the room was not clean and the so called breakfast was a couple of packet croissants and a kettle! Since the trip I have tried several times to contact the hotel and receive my refund (hotels.com also not being very helpful) however have I have been completely ignored. PLEASE do not waste your money on this terrible accommodation. I will also be writing reviews on any site this hotel uses to advertise to try and forewarn fellow travellers.

Fake hotel
There is no hotel. I got there and all there is is an apartment building and one of the units has the name of the presumed hotel . Pressed on the bell and no response . Pressed on another bell that says building manager and an Italian guy starts screaming at me obviously every one has been looking for this hotel .3 hours of my one day in time was waisted on trying to find a fake hotel . Hotel.com you need to vet your hotels before adding them to your list

Non-existent reception. Had to call Hotels.com to contact owner to check-us-in, one hour later. No warm water for 4 days, took cold showers, never cleaned room or provided breakfast. Could not use coffee machine, us or other guests, dirty and mildew. DO Not stay here. Only positive, great food around, shops and Vatican City about 5 minute walk.

First of all, the picture from the entrance of Blue Suite Vatican you find online is not real. When you walk in all you see is this long and ugly corrridor with a coffee machine. I had to add water and empty the used pods myself to get coffee in the morning. Manuel (I believe that was his name) is a nice guy, but we had to wait for him to arrive outside of the building when we got there and inside on the corredor we had to wait again for him to finish cleaning our room... not a good first impression... I just felt like they do the minimum... comparing with the other places I stayed during this trip this one was a disappointment...

Check in for me and my group was awful. I had emailed them letting them know what time id check in. I had no data service so i waited almost an hour and luckily i got to use a strangers phone to ring them bc the front door bell rang to someone who had no idea what i was talking about. During my trip, i ran into another guest who was in the same predicament. They really need to work on their scheduling with guests to check in. The stay itself was good the snacks in the room and room was nice. But the check introuble really ruined the whole experience.

Worst experience. We arrived at 2pm even thought i got a confirmation from Orbitz that the room was going to be ready at 12. We emailed the b&b a month ago letting them know what time we were gonna arrive. When we arrived, they were not expenting us. Had pay us cash and told us to come back in one hour to clean a room and give us. We lost out ticket to the vatican because of this.

The room we booked was unavailable due to plumbing issues. The Blue Suite Vatican had us booked into another nearby hotel. Although we weren't able to stay in our booked room, the location of BSV was ideal.

Very small room, much smaller than it looks on photoes. There was not enough space to just walk around the bed. No warm water... unbelievable!!!. We paid 3-4 times more than it deserves. On the other hand, Rome is wonderfull
