In the heart of the Monti district
A short walk from Termini, in the heart of Monti — not just a hostel: a sustainable urban hub for people who want to live Rome, not only visit it.
Our rooms
Simple, well kept and made for travelling light. Every room has fast Wi-Fi, good thermal and acoustic insulation and PerDormire® mattresses for a proper rest. Singles, doubles and quads — many with a private bathroom — for every way of experiencing Rome: on your own, as a couple, with friends or as a family. Each room is decorated with prints and artwork by local artists.
A sustainable social hostel
About us
Tomato Urban Retreat is a sustainable urban retreat in the heart of Rome, run by Social Supply, a third-sector social cooperative. With 45 rooms and generous shared spaces opening onto an inner garden, it offers a genuine alternative to conventional hospitality. A short walk from Termini station, it is the ideal base for living Rome — not only visiting it.
Our commitment to sustainability
And outside the door
Social projects
Through open, multi-purpose spaces, Social Supply welcomes to Tomato Urban Retreat local residents, neighbourhood associations, tourists and responsible travellers. With help desks, workshops, co-working, events and festivals, the aim is to build a social hostel with a community vocation, bringing together sustainability, hospitality and social inclusion, with particular attention to young people and to those in greatest difficulty.
Casa Esquilino
Since August 2026 Social Supply has taken part in the “Casa Esquilino” project, hosting at Tomato Urban Retreat Roma families who used to live at Spin Time. Created in response to the eviction of Spin Time in order to welcome the families living in that building on Via Santa Croce di Gerusalemme, the project was proposed and developed by Polo Civico Esquilino — a network of 56 associations — and is supported by the City of Rome.
Radioimmaginaria Roma
Since September 2026 Tomato Urban Retreat Roma has hosted the weekly broadcasts of Radioimmaginaria’s Rome newsroom. Radioimmaginaria is the teenagers’ radio station and the European network run by girls and boys aged 10 to 17: an aerial always ready to pick up and broadcast the signals of the world to come.
Free legal help desk
From October 2026 Tomato Urban Retreat Roma will host a free legal help desk covering employment, social security and immigration, as well as trade-union, civil, criminal and administrative advice. The desk will open once a week and can be accessed by appointment.
What our guests say
“As a solo traveller, I booked a single room with shared bathroom. This was a very affordable option and I was pleasantly surprised by the value for money. The shared bathrooms are super modern and extremely clean. There are multiple bathrooms on each level. I never had to wait for the toilet or the shower during my 6 day long stay.”
“Very good area. I felt safe walking around at night, and there are lots of good restaurants and shops nearby. The staff were helpful, friendly and accommodating. The room was clean and everything was new and updated. I would absolutely stay here again.”
“Great staff, great location, great room and spotlessly clean. What more can you ask for? This was by far my best stay on my trip in Spain and Italy.”
