About

Soggiorno Emanuela

Soggiorno Emanuela is a compact hostel with nine rooms on the second floor of a building on Via Calatafimi. Its position is the main draw: a six-minute walk from La Pietà and a short hop from Termini tube station, which puts much of Rome within easy reach. The hostel is described as a 3-star property, though it operates more like a guesthouse, with a shared kitchen and a mix of private and dormitory-style rooms.

The atmosphere is practical and no-fuss. Rooms come with heating, and some include tea and coffee facilities. There is a shared kitchen with an electric kettle, and the property provides housekeeping and key-access security. Wi-Fi is available throughout, and a lift serves the building. The hostel does not allow pets and has non-smoking rooms only.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Unbeatable location for transport — A six-minute walk from La Pietà and right by Termini tube station, this is one of the most practical bases in Rome for getting around.
  • Strong value for money — With rooms from £11 and consistently positive comments about affordability, it's a budget-friendly option in a pricey city.
  • Clean and comfortable basics — Guests repeatedly note clean rooms, comfortable beds, and private bathrooms in many room types – no frills, but dependable.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Modest overall rating — The hostel scores 6.6 out of 10, with value rated lowest at 6.4 – some guests may find the basic setup underwhelming relative to expectations.
  • Limited room variety — With only nine rooms and two room types listed (Classic Triple and Deluxe Twin), availability is limited and options are few.
  • Shared facilities in some rooms — While some reviews mention private bathrooms, others reference shared bathroom and kitchen – a mixed setup that may not suit everyone.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this isn't the place – the policy is strictly no pets.
