1 Step From Saint PeterGuesthouse

Via Giovanni Bettolo, 52 (Near the Vatican)

Distance to city center: 2.76 km (1.72 miles)

The Basics: 1 Step From Saint Peter
1 Step From Saint Peter is a bed and breakfast with a rather optimistic name, as it’s actually about a 15-minute walk to St. Peter’s Basilica. It does, however, enjoy some sweet and simple rooms on the second floor of a 1920s-era apartment building.
