About

Mater Rooms & Suites

Mater Rooms & Suites is an intimate guest house with just six rooms, set in a historic building on Via Della Maddalena. It sits in the very centre of Rome, roughly a five-minute walk from the Trevi Fountain, and within easy reach of Barberini metro station. The Pantheon, Piazza Navona, and a tangle of restaurants, bars, and gelato shops are all on the doorstep.

The rooms are contemporary in style, each with air conditioning, heating, and a shower. A buffet-style breakfast is served in the on-site restaurant, where guests can start the day with coffee, pancakes, and eggs. With a 9.1 guest rating for both rooms and service, this is a practical base for exploring the city on foot.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small-scale property — With only six rooms, the guest house may lack the amenities of a larger hotel, such as a gym or full-service lobby.
  • Comfort rating lags — Comfort scores just 6.9, lower than other categories, suggesting some guests may find the beds or noise levels less than ideal.
  • No pets allowed — The property has a strict no-pets policy, which may be a drawback for travellers with animals.
  • Check-in ends late — Check-in is from 14:00 until 23:59, so very late arrivals may need to coordinate with the staff.

“The hotel overlooked the city and the room felt modern. The location was ideal for me as it was next to all the major sights, including the Pantheon and Piazza Navona, with plenty of restaurants, bars, and shops around. Staying in the Pantheon district was worth it. I spent six nights here and really enjoyed it.”
