Why we recommend it

Hotel Santa Maria occupies a former 17th-century cloister tucked down Vicolo del Piede, a few steps from Piazza di Santa Maria in Trastevere and its mosaic-fronted basilica. The 19 rooms are spread over the ground and first floors around the old cloister, which gives the property a quiet, low-rise feel unusual in central Rome.

It is a three-star hotel, and the owners are on site every day, which shows in the personal service. Location is the big advantage: Trastevere's trattorias and bars are on the doorstep, and the historic centre is a walk across the river. Evenings in the surrounding lanes can be lively, so light sleepers may want to ask for a room facing the cloister. Free Wi-Fi is included.
