About

The Cicer One

The Cicer One is a compact guest house on Via Cicerone, set on the fifth floor of a residential building. With just six rooms, it offers a more personal stay than a large hotel, and guests consistently praise the attentive, friendly service.

Its position in the upscale Prati district is the main draw: the Vatican is within easy walking distance, as are the Trevi Fountain (an 18-minute stroll) and a wealth of restaurants and public transport links. The rooms are modern, spotless, and equipped with comforts like air conditioning, tea and coffee facilities, and flat-screen TVs.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Exceptional staff and service — Guests consistently single out the friendly, accommodating staff, with particular praise for Ricardo and Chiara.
  • Central yet calm location — In the upscale Prati district, within walking distance of the Vatican, Trevi Fountain, and plenty of restaurants, but away from the tourist crowds.
  • Spotless, comfortable rooms — Rooms are clean, modern, and well-equipped, with comfortable beds and spacious showers.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Small scale, limited facilities — With only six rooms and no on-site dining, the hotel offers a more intimate stay but lacks the amenities of a larger property.
  • Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only available between 13:30 and 19:00, which may be inconvenient for late arrivals.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accommodate pets, which may be a drawback for travelers with animals.
