About

Established in 1990, Bar dell'Artista Accommodation has come to be one of the most popular accommodations in Rome and a well-known place to stay for young travelers. Since its opening it has been recommended in all the main guide books.

The structure is located in Rione Monti, a lively neighborhood close to the Colosseum and the Roman Forum. Just down the hill you will find the charming cobble-stone streets, Monti proper, complete with fountain for nighttime gatherings. A trendy area, it boasts artisan and vintage shops, a plethora of dining options and cafes, and bustling crowds comprised of residents, artists, tourists, and other colorful folk.

Bar Dell'Artista Accommodation is a calm, clean, budget-friendly place to crash in the heart of Rome. It is located on a 19th-century townhouse close to the Santa Maria Maggiore Basilica and to Via Cavour, one of Rome’s main roads. Despite being a small property, with no common room and no kitchen, our guests appreciate the cozy, homey atmosphere.

Several transport options, such as metro, buses, trams, taxi stands, and tour buses, are at your fingertips. Bar Dell'Artista Accommodation is easily accessible from Termini central train station, just a few minutes' walk from the structure. Termini hosts bus and train transport to and from Rome's airports.

Thank you and enjoy Rome.

Not the place to go for a social atmosphere but very nice for a private room. At first it seemed slightly sketchy. Franco the guy in charge is great and very helpful

The vibe was really off here! The address given is not the actual address of the rooms, but an abandoned bar full of empty milk crates and junk where Franco is (hopefully) waiting for you… and check in takes a very long time while he shuffles around the bar & to the room. He also came into the room in the morning while I was still in bed :/ No air conditioning, no common area, mostly empty with no one to meet, poor facilities… convenient location & ok beds but I wish I’d stayed somewhere else!

Great location. The man in charge was nice, accommodating, and easy going. The bad thing was the cleanliness. They clean the toilet and empty out the trash daily. However, the shower was never cleaned. I was showering in other people’s hair, filth, with a moldy shower curtain, and dirty floor mat. Also, the bedroom floor was never cleaned. I was walking around a ton of hair and debris. To make matters worse, the mattress I got sank bad on the left side: very old mattresses. I would not go back.
