Der ganze Aufenthalt war unglaublich herzlich und unkompliziert.
Ich bin das erste Mal alleine unterwegs, da war ich auch ganz schön aufgeregt. Ich hatte eine ganz tolle Zeit bei Chris und ihrer Familie
Sie hat mir tolle Tipps für meinen Urlaub gegeben und ich konnte mit ihr über alles sprechen. Ich bin sehr froh das ich mich für Chris entschieden habe und würde es immer wieder gerne tun!

Being with Alessandra & Gennaro was just one of my best experiences in entire life. They are more than great hosts... They are just perfect and I will carry this in my heart where ever I shall go. The place it self is perfect too and within a jump with the tram you can find yourself at the city centre.
Thank you,

Kie, Giancarlo, and Patrick are the best hosts. They helped us a lot in Rome and gave us several pick-ups from the subway station to their house. Kie made some wonderful meals for us. Patrick was young but mature and shared a lot of useful information. In this clean and safe place, you can easily take the subway to every sight (if there's no strike). You will have a private bedroom and bathroom. The only pity was that we spent nearly all the time visiting tourist sights or resting in our room, so we didn't have enough time to chat with the family. But trust me, they were super nice! I will absolutely recommend this house to everybody. I've already looked forward to visiting them next time in Rome.

We loved staying with Rachel! She couldn’t have been more helpful and welcoming and she gave us lots of really good recommendations and told us a lot about the area we were staying in. Our favourite thing about the home stay was definitely the view from the bathroom window, you could see all the houses below and it was beautiful. There was also a few really good places to eat nearby.

They gave me assistance with my travel, Kie cooked delicious food and spending time talking together in the evenings was a delight. The room and bathroom was also very clean and tidy. Getting to know you all was a pleasure, I would certainly recommend this homestay. Thank you again xxx

Francesco (and his mum) are incredibly welcoming, kind and helpful people. They contributed a big deal to the excellent impression Rome had on me. They even allowed me to spontaneously extend my stay for an additional night as my flight was cancelled. The flat was very clean and the bedroom faces a reasonably quiet street

Fredrico and Serena were so helpful and good to us during our stay, I feel so grateful for their kindness. The accommodation was clean and comfortable and location is also very convenient with Trastevere Train Station a short walk away and many other transit options nearby. Since we enjoy walking, we were able to visit The Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain and other sites nearby all on foot (but it did us take all day). It was a really lovely time we spent in Rome, and we would definitely stay with Serena and Fredrico again. Much gratitude for these lovely hosts!

It was our best stay in Italy! Federico is super friendly and kind. Every day he sent a message to make sure everything was ok. He even helped me with train and subway tips. The apartment is just incredible! Large, well lit, clean, fragrant. There were very clean towels, freshly changed bed linen, and an organized room. There are washing machines and dryers available. Furthermore, the owner provides coffee, kettles and the entire structure as if we were right at home. The location is just a train ride away from the main points and the neighborhood is super nice. Federico even gave us valuable restaurant tips! We really appreciate all the care taken with our stay. We recommend it with our eyes closed.

Une semaine à Rome chez Chris est de loin notre meilleure expérience de chambre d'hôtes. L'appartement est très propre et bien desservi par le métro et les bus. Chris est d'une nature généreuse et également très bonne cuisinière ! Elle vous montre tout ce qui vous intéresse, y compris le fermier chez qui elle achète des fruits et légumes et le boucher où elle déniche du poulet succulent. Si vous voulez dîner au restaurant où vous ne trouverez que des clients locaux, il y a l'embarras du choix en bas de l'immeuble. Un grand merci à Chris et bises affectueuses.

Il soggiorno da Francesco è stato favoloso! Lui è una persona molto tranquilla e accomodante, il coinquilino perfetto sotto questi aspetti. Mi ha anche consigliato una buonissima pizzeria in zona dove ordinare d’asporto.
A proposito della zona, nel cuore di Montesacro, quartiere dinamico e signorile, ottimamente collegato con numerosi autobus per tutte le zone di Roma (la fermata è letteralmente a 2 min da casa!).
Ciliegina sulla torta, sua mamma Raffaella: gentilezza nell’accoglienza, piena disponibilità persino nell’offerta di un passaggio in macchina da stazione Termini. In sintesi, da Francesco non ci si sente ospiti: ci si sente a casa.

Chris was a wonderful host. She was accommodating and incredibly kind during our stay. We arrived on a weekend that had airline and train strikes and the beginning of a long heatwave. She made us feel very welcome and comfortable, allowing us to start exploring Rome from Ostiense! Transport to and from Ostiense is very easy. While tourists tend to visit the well-known city centre areas, Ostiense really was a great area of Rome to explore. Overall Chris is a lovely person and I would consider staying with her should I visit Rome once more. She knows Rome like the back of her hand. She also had two adorable Jack Russells that were uniquely affectionate too!

I spent the most wonderful 2 months at Emma and Ranieri’s lovely home with their adorable son Giulio, as well as having the pleasure to meet Emma’s sister Rosaria on several occasions.

From the moment I arrived, Emma welcomed me into her home with open arms, she took me on a walk and introduced me to the area, Piazza bologna. The location is ideal - it isn’t too central and touristic but there is lots to do for young people and is only 15 minutes to the centro storico on the Metro. There are lots of good bars / restaurants around the Piazza and in the area.

The apartment itself was always kept clean and cozy - I got my own room and private bathroom with a balcony, so always had my own space if I needed a nap or something :) !

Emma is extremely generous and friendly. On several occasions, she invited me to join the family for dinner, which was always a pleasure trying her delicious Italian cooking and spending time chatting with the family. During my stay I also enjoyed meeting some of Emma’s students who came over for their lessons or dinners.

Since I was doing an internship in Rome to practice my Italian, being immersed in an Italian-speaking family was extremely helpful for me - Emma was always willing to clarify any language questions that I had, and was very patient with my bad Italian, even printing off some exercises for me on areas I wasn’t too confident in.

All in all, I really couldn’t recommend Emma’s Homestay enough to anyone that is looking for somewhere to stay in Rome, whether that be for tourism / work / study, or any kind of stay. Emma and her family are so kind, warm and welcoming, and it was always a pleasure to come home to their friendly faces after work, and to the adorable Giulio!

Grazie mille Emma!

Chris was the most brilliant person I could have wished for, I really felt at home, with her son Nico and her lovely dogs: Diana and Julio. I had my private room, with 2 desks with a view over a garden inside the building. I was really close (500 m) to the metro station. One word to describe Chris is GENEROUS she is sweat and warm. I enjoyed the wonderful breakfasts and lovely conversations which made my stay in Rome so nicely different from a stay in anonymous places. Can only recommend to stay with Chris her home is filled with positive energy. For sure 5 hearts are not enough. I would recomend staying with Chris 100%. Thank you so much Chris.
