Stay inside history at this six-story hotel set in a pope’s former palace. The Telegraph says the hotel “occupies what is arguably one of the most desirable settings in Rome. The restaurants, shops, and buskers that crowd this lively square are just around the corner, as are its cultural treasures, like the underground ruins of the ancient Roman Stadio di Domiziano.” One Trip Advisor reviewer likes the unique decor: “Each of the rooms seem to be different because it is in an old palazzo, but they are all super comfortable with excellent beds. The breakfast is sensational, as it is on the terrace overlooking the piazza and just under the dome of the adjoining church.” >> Book this hotel for less
