9/10 Wonderful! (490 reviews)
So many things are great, and well, so much needs updating and improving.
On a positive note, the suite with two rooms was accommodating to my family. The welcome Prosecco and fruit was appreciated. Location great and staff friendly. Unfortunately, the room was so dark, dreary and depressing. We had issues- toilet not flushing, shower not draining, and the bedding is disappointing.
Brunch was nice, bar also disappointing. Some of the staff smelled like body odor and just over all not inviting. If this place was a three star hotel and the price indicated that, I would be ok, but it surely should not be a Leading Hotel of the World.

The Basilica and St. Peter's Square are well worth the time. Go with a Skip the Line Tour. Book ahead.

Don’t buy tickets from outsiders. You can walk inside and buy tickets at low price.

They have services on Wednesdays so we could not tour there. Saw the outside only and it was crowded with people.
5/5 - Excellent
Laura
If you decide to climb the steps up into the dome, do so early in the day while you are fresh. The views are worth it but the hike is a significant one. Also consider entering the basilica when you see that the line to get through security is noticably shorter than it had been. Hotel staff can often advise when the pontiff will be delivering a blessing.
