My husband and I stayed in the largest bedroom at Obelus, due to the other two rooms being full. It was nice to have so much space to spread out! The bedroom was spotless and fairly comfortable (although the bed was firm - something I think you'd find anywhere in Europe at this price point). The bathroom was also sparkling... more

Carola was an excellent hostess, both gracious and helpful. The B&B had three rooms; one was a triple. It was extremely clean and comfortable and was located less than 15 minutes from the Colosseum. I highly recommend this B&B. more

My mom and I stayed at this B&B for three nights and we were very happy with our choice. I can only agree with all the other positive reviews: great location, very friendly and helpfull owners, clean rooms, nice breakfast and not expensive. The perfect place to stay to experience all the wonders that Rome has to offer. M. Damen-The... more

We arrived at the Obelus on April 26 and stayed for 3 nights. We couldn't have been more pleased. The location was perfect, near the Metro and bus stops, yet our room was very quiet. The setting is charming, you feel like you're really experiencing a small slice of local life. The inn is small, very clean and extremely well... more

Obelus Bed and Breakfast is situated in a great location, just a pleasant walk to the Colosseum and with convenient access to the Metro. There is also a charming and friendly pub just across the street with wonderful music and great drinks! The Obelus has quiet rooms that are spotlessly clean and comfortable. The breakfast was just right with a... more

I've just completed my third stay at Obelus in the last two years. Twice on my own (whilst running the Rome Marathon) and the other time with my family. It really is the perfect B&B in the Eternal City. Located on the second floor of an apartment block in a quiet park of Rome, the B&B is situated at the... more

We began our tour of Italy at Obelus b&b and returned to end our stay at the Obelus b&b as well. We did thoroughly enjoyed our time here. From the beautiful clean rooms with high sealings, to the delicious breakfast with pastries and cappuccino to the little touches like the self service cookie jar and coffe at the end of... more

I stayed here with my girlfriend for 3 nights, and we couldn't have received a better service from Therese and Carola. It is spotlessly clean, a great location with easy access to the main sites, metro and buses, and a really helpful concierge service from the legendary Therese & Carola! It's important to note a couple of things. Firstly, a... more

[If booking with Obelus, make sure you are booking through the correct website! This B&B has become so popular that a rival located 2-3 blocks over is listing its website under the Obelus B&B name on Google maps. Make sure the website you hit is as follows: [--] and that either Therese or Carola are corresponding with you] We stayed... more

The Obelus was the perfect place for us. It is close to the San Giovanni metro stop, the Colliseum and Forum, good restaurants, markets, etc. The room was spacious, clean and modern. Terese and Carola were wonderfully welcoming and helpful. Breakfast consisted of a croissant, cereal, yogurt and plenty of coffee and juice. My husband and I stayed there for... more
