WHAT WE LOVE...

The Mama Shelter group don't do things by halves; decor in their 17 - and counting - hotels worldwide is playful and over-the-top. the food is always top notch (and almost more of a focus than the rooms), while the staff are encouraged to let their personalities shine through. Mama Shelter Rome is no different; walking through the door past a sign saying 'Ciao, belli!' you're immediately confronted with an overload of Italian-inspired design, from walls decorated with Moka coffee-makers, to curtains screen-printed with Panini stickers and a carpet woven with pictures of pizza, pasta, and the occasional Roman emperor. The lobby contains several vintage arcade games, and there are 217 rooms, three restaurants (including one on the roof), and a pool and gym in the basement.

THE DETAILS

Location

Not far from the Vatican you'll find one of Rome's loveliest bridges, the Ponte Sant'angelo, lined with statues of angels.

Just outside of the Vatican City, Mama Shelter is located by Cipro metro station and next to the Parco di Monte Ciocci. The observatory, from which you get fabulous views of the Vatican, is a six-minute cab ride away.
By plane: there are direct flights to Rome's Leonardo da Vinci International Airport from London (2 hours 25 minutes), Manchester (3 hours 5 minutes) and Bristol (4 hours 45 minutes). The hotel is a 40-minute drive from the airport. skyscanner.net
