The high ceilings and spacious rooms make it hard to believe this hotel was once a part of the neighboring San Giuseppe Convent. Renovations (or nuns with a penchant for wide, open spaces) have resulted in a lovely, though humble, 25-room establishment, with rooms overlooking both the street below and a sunny back garden. Light pours in from all sides of the backyard, which also houses a segment of the Aurelian walls.
Angels adorn otherwise bare bedroom walls (a reminder from the nearby sisters perhaps?). And sparkling-clean, rosy-tiled bathrooms will satisfy even the pickiest of clean freaks.
The Casa San Giuseppe offers an abundant breakfast buffet. Antique-lovers will drool over the chunky dark-wood carpenter's table, which currently serves as a dry bar. The staff is friendly and accommodating, and the sisters at the convent next door produce their own label of white wine.
