Hotel Villa Duse

Amazing experience! We were made to feel right at home . Hotel Villa Duse is a beautiful, elegant, family run, boutique hotel. The building and furnishings are exquisite. The breakfasts were some of the best meals we had on our trip: wonderful creamy scrambled egg, the most delicious quiche as well as fresh sour dough bread, croissants, cheese, sliced meat, apple cake and coffee!! The hosts were wonderfully helpful and welcoming, nothing was too much trouble. I’d highly recommend Hotel Villa Duse to all my family and friends.

Everytime we go to Rome we love to stay there, small, beautiful and private, the breakfast made by the owners is wonderful but the best is the special way they welcome and treat you. Leonora and her mother the owners are like angels making you feel special. I love this place!!!

Villa Duse was everything we hoped for and more. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and genuine hospitality by the two wonderful women who own and run this charming boutique hotel—a lovely mother and daughter. Their kindness and care made us feel not just like guests, but like family. The villa itself is cozy, beautiful, and incredibly peaceful—a true sanctuary tucked away from the city’s bustle, yet still close enough to explore all the magic of Rome. Our room was the Penthhouse one, elegant and comfortable, with thoughtful touches that made our anniversary stay feel extra special. Every morning we were treated to a delicious, homemade breakfast that was clearly prepared with love. The fresh pastries, coffee, quiche, and Italian delights were the perfect start to each day. We were able to walk to so many iconic sites—the Borghese Gallery and Gardens, the Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain, and more. Each day felt like a dream, and it was such a joy to return to the calm and charm of Villa Duse after our city adventures. This was more than just a stay—it was an experience we’ll never forget. If you’re looking for a warm, welcoming, and tranquil place to stay in Rome, we wholeheartedly recommend Villa Duse.

The property is a mansion that is later converted into a small hotel. It is managed by a mother and daughters with a very diligent and thoughtful manner. The ambiance throughout is so much in line with the period details, accompanied by the comfort of the our time. It was not just a holiday in Rome, but was like a family visit. So, if you would like to feel at home, that is the place for you.

The staff was very friendly, rooms were a bit small, and they could use a luggage bench/holder to make luggage access easier. Breakfast was very good and convenient in the morning.

The best service and ambiance. Superb management and staff. I would recommend this villa to all my friends and family!
