Clean, comfortable, and friendly - this quaint hotel has an intimate feel and is a fantastic choice for couples. The staff is especially nice and helpful. Breakfast is brought to your room or the private rooftop terrace. Right off the main piazza in Trastevere and a ten minute walk to Campo di Fiori or the Jewish Ghetto, this will be... More

This is a very small B & B, in Trastevere just behind ,Santa Maria in Trastevere, the wonderful old church. Lovely breakfast at the small but very cosy terrasse.You live very quiet and central, Trastevere is a hidden diamond. Do yourself a favor try this next time in Rome.

My husband and I stayed at Villa Fonte for 4 nights at the beginning of our honeymoon. We had never been to Europe and this was our first stop of our two week trip. We were surprised that the room was sparsely furnished, but now that we've stayed a few other places, it seems to be the norm in Europe.... More

Simply put, I loved this little hotel. The location is perfect, especially for those who prefer this bank of the Tiber with it´s local buzz, off but not far from the noisy, sometimes annoying turisty Rome. No real specials in the Villa appart from a very clean efficent room, hard shades on the windows, wonderful older lady preparing breakfast on... More

The room was not big, but very comfortable, clean and functionable. The breakfast was sufficient. You take it in the room, but when the weather is nice, you can sit outside on a lovely roofgarden. The staff was always helpful. But the best is the position: Just off Piazza Santa Maria in Trastevere and in the neighbourhood of Ponte Sisto.... More

We found we could walk to just about every main attraction in Rome from this small hotel. It is very conveniently situated to lots of good trattoria/cafes/bars and there is a tram reasonably close to catch. The rooms were wonderfully clean. The breakfast was served in the room (winter) and on a very attractive terrace in the warmer weather. I... More

I had a very pleasant stay at Villa della Fonte. The friendly and accommodating staff, nice breakfast on the attractive terrace, great location on a little street just off Piazza Santa Maria in Trastevere, and the comfortable, pleasant room all contributed. I was there for seven nights in October. The first night was a bit noisy with conversations on the... More

Villa della Fonte Guest House was a good find in Rome! We wanted a true neighborhood experience and after having a little trouble with the taxi finding the B&B, we were greeted kindly by the desk reception. It is a small, family run B&B with only 5 rooms, which are well maintained with nice furniture, attention to detail, very nice... More

Although initially alarmed by the graffiti on the walls approaching the entrance this was soon dispelled once inside the hotel. Very comfortable room, pleasant staff and lovely breakfast in the sunshine on the terrace every morning. The square which is a stone's throw from the hotel is a lovely place to sit and have a coffee mid-morning overlooking the fountain... More

This is certainly a gem. Small, family run with only 5 rooms, extremely well maintained, with nice furniture, attention to detail, very nice service, a lovely terrace in the back for breakfast and sitting out in the evening (only until 1045 at night though). The rooms are small but this is really quite normal in this part of the city.... More
