Situated right around the corner from the iconic Colosseum, this three-bedroom apartment is the ideal spot for families and groups seeking the best that Rome has to offer. In the morning, enjoy your coffee out on the balcony, where you can feel the bustly atmosphere of the Eternal City emanate from the streets. While the decor and furniture can feel a bit dated in parts, the true highlight of this home is its stellar location – with the Colosseum and the Roman Forum just down the road, you can’t go far wrong in this home.

What a great location this lovely home has – it's just a six-minute stroll from Emperor Nero's Golden House (Domus Aurea), while the Colosseum is eight minutes on foot and the Roman Forum is ten.

Back at this apartment, housed in a 19th-century building, there's a wonderful terrace with a comfy sofa, which is just what you need after a day exploring the Eternal City. There's a dining table here too, perfect for alfresco suppers of cacio e pepe (a Roman staple of pasta, pepper and cheese). Inside, we love that there's a lot of natural light, which helps the trendy Sansevieria plants to thrive. Mix up a Campari in the modern kitchen and relax on the plush purple sofa – bliss.

No monument captures the spirit of Rome quite as like the Colosseum, and being as close to the amphitheatre as this home is a real privilege. Just six minutes (on foot) to the emblematic attraction, and a traditional local area full of authentic eateries and beautiful tangerine buildings – you're perfectly placed here. Back home, you'll find a sociable open-plan living room, kitchen and dining area benefitting from sleek grey floors, tasteful artwork of the city by night and plenty of natural light pouring in. Wandering through the home, you'll notice a collection of art and literature books, quirky adornments and funky printed wallpapers in the bedrooms. There, those who are working from home during their stay will be able to power through emails at the dedicated desk spaces. The other thing that really makes the flat stick out is Simona and her hosting. She’s an absolute delight and will do everything possible to make your stay as good as it can be.

This bold little place isn’t aimed at fans of neutral tones and understated design. Deep colours are everywhere, and they really help the apartment stand out from the crowd. It's not a huge space but it's extremely well laid-out and the lack of a seating area indoors is more than made up for by having a balcony with seats outside. The kitchenette is pretty well-equipped for its size and there's a little dining spot just for two. The host, Maria, really pushes the boat out when it comes to service – there’s a daily cleaning service, as well as free laundry, great breakfast options, and recommendations of all the places tourists don’t know about. If that wasn’t enough, it’s also only a couple of minutes walk from the Colosseum.

Gladiator Rose

When it comes to location, you could hardly ask for a more convenient spot to be than this bright and modern apartment, situated just moments away from the Forum and the Colosseum. At the same time, you’ll benefit from being slightly removed from the main tourist tracks, able to immerse yourself in the authentic atmosphere of one of Rome’s trendiest areas. 

Arrive to be welcomed by the light-filled open-plan living room and kitchen area, inviting you to kick off your shoes and relax after a long day of exploring the Eternal City. Lounge about on the plush sofa or gather everyone around the dining table for a light supper you’ll be able to rustle up with ease in the well-equipped kitchen. 

For a night of restful sleep head over to the cosy bedrooms, one offering a double bed and the second featuring two singles, with additional sleeping spaces in the living room. Wake up restored and ready for another day of la dolce vita. 

Outside your door, you’ll find yourself just steps away from the vintage stores and charming cafes of Monti and a ten-minute walk from all the splendour of Ancient Rome. 

Fellini's Dreams 

Baby Bath

Private Entrance

Situated on the famous street Via Merulana in the San Giovanni district, this is an excellently located home in a lively bourgeois area with good transport links to the rest of the city. The rooms are large and bright, all recently renovated with minimal modern design. The style of the home is more industrial than cosy thanks to the steel kitchen, prevalence of clean lines and minimal contemporary lighting, but that doesn’t compromise the comfort of the home. We did notice that the WiFi was notably slow, however, which might pose a problem for some guests.

This apartment may be in the heart of Rome, but there’s something distinctly country-chic about the decor. Period pieces – dressers, doors and the kitchen table – are all rough white-washed and feel rustic. The sound system is vintage, and the armchairs in the living room are upholstered in gloriously kitsch floral patterns. The jewel in the crown of the apartment is the sprawling outdoor terrace, which has sofas in sunny spots for a dose of vitamin D, and shaded nooks under parasols for when the heat gets too much. The bamboo pergola covered a couple of outdoor gas hobs, so you can cook and dine alfresco. Flowers and pot plants bloom for every corner and climb trellises for a bit of privacy. If you want to know just how central you are, just head out to the downstairs balcony and spot the Colosseum at the end of your street.

You couldn’t ask for a better location in Rome than this apartment, which looks directly onto the iconic Colosseum. The apartment is modern and stylish, with designer furniture and a luxurious vibe. We love the high ceilings, which reach over 5 metres, and how bright and welcoming this home feels. There’s a convenient kitchen, though you’ll have your pick of Roman restaurants right on your doorstep if you don’t feel like cooking. Convenient, chic, and comfortable – what more could you ask for? 

Roman Elegance

The seven-minute walk to the Colosseum from this bijou apartment is lined with centuries-old churches and family-run pizzerias. Surrounded by ancient buildings and architecture, there’s no doubt you’re in the old centre here. Just beyond the Colosseum, you’ll find the sprawling ruins of the Roman Forum a ten-minute walk away. 

Within the apartment, you’ve got a calming haven of traditional furnishings and gold trim. The front door opens straight into the living room, where there’s a little collection of books for a holiday read. The cute, provincial-tiled kitchen is tucked away in one corner and there’s room to dine in here too. It’s the bedrooms that really grabbed us here though, with their hand-painted pastel murals of the Italian countryside above both beds. The little sit-outery with its bistro set that catches the sun in the morning isn’t a bad spot either.

Single-Level Home

You couldn't be better placed for a sightseeing trip around Rome. This modern apartment – recently renovated in April 2021 – resides just 300 metres away from the Colosseum. You can simply stroll out of your apartment building and immediately see the striking building. It's an inspiring sight that adds instant excitement to your Roman adventure.

Alongside the Colosseum, you're also just 600 metres away from the archaic Roman Forum. Insightful and fascinating, the ancient ruins stand proud against contemporary infrastructure in an impressive feat of traditional architecture. 

Intertwined between the iconic landmarks, you'll find a plethora of cute cafes and fine restaurants. Authentically Italian menus combine with international dishes to suit every palette. 

After a day of sampling the food and admiring the buildings, you can take a well-earned break in the modern comfort of your home. The interior is a stark contrast from Rome's landmarks – it's fitted with high-speed Wi-Fi, self check-in technology and the latest smart home system.

A large TV features all your favourite streaming services, including Netflix and Amazon Prime, so you can catch your favourite shows. Adjacent to the cosy living room, a kitchen stands next to a cute dining table. The whole group can gather here to share pizza and Barolo wine, taking turns to discuss the highlights of their trip.

 Road to the Lion's Den

Wheelchair Access

This enviably located apartment looks out directly over the ancient Colosseum. Better still, the Roman Forum is a short walk away, and restaurants, cafes and bars are on the doorstep. At capacity, one guest will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area, though it may not be the most comfortable option for an extended stay. And while the kitchen and bathroom are a little dated, we think the view more than makes up for it.


Roman Reflection

Oh, the view from this Roman home – we go weak at the knees every time we see it. It makes a good case for the best in the city. Who wouldn't want to wake up to the vistas of the magnificent Colosseum? We can imagine on warm summers evening opening up the windows and drinking a glass of prosecco while admiring this ancient amphitheatre set against a red sky. Let's not forget the interiors here, though – they are lovely and fit in perfectly with the old-world grandeur that emanates from Rome. We especially adore the marble-clad bathrooms and plush velvet fabrics, all chosen by a Count. If you can tear yourself away from the windows, history lovers can walk to the Basilica di San Clemente in under five minutes, while St. Peter's Square can be reached in a quarter of an hour.

Impero

In the heart of Rome, mere minutes away from its most iconic landmark – the Colosseum – this two-bedroom apartment is a welcome haven amidst the exciting bustle of the Eternal City. Recently renovated and featuring chic Italian furniture, it’s full of home comforts and well-equipped for families and groups alike. But its true highlight is of course, the location – ancient relics abound in the immediate area, including the Roman Forum, the Domus Aurea and many more. Explore the history from thousands of years ago – right outside your door.

With prints from Piranesi, Cambellotti and even Karl Lagerfeld, Jigsaw Frame is an art-lovers dream. Staying here, you get the sense of someone's home, rather than an anonymous holiday let. Brimming with character, the home offers a true taste of Italy through its authentic style and design. Think vintage mirrors, antique wooden furnishings and an eclectic array of artwork. Not to mention the retro kitchen that paints the perfect picture of what we imagine a quintessential Italian cooking corner to look like. In terms of location, you cannot get better than this. Just a three minute walk away from the world-renowned Colosseum and ancient Roman ruins, you'll be faced with stunning architectural views from the moment you step foot out of the door. Situated in the heart of Rome's Lazio district, enjoy lapping up the local cuisine at the many bars, restaurants and markets nearby. At the end of a long day on your feet, feel assured in knowing that with such a central address, you won't have far to go when you're ready to return to your home base.  

Jigsaw Frame

Step out of your building’s front door to be immediately greeted by the Colosseum at the end of the road. It’s an unrivalled location and despite neighbouring a global landmark, the quieter street retains a local charm. Inside, the apartment is wonderfully maintained with thoughtful design. The original character of the property shines – timber beams have been lovingly restored and counterpoint some of the more modern touches. We particularly liked the textured wallpaper above the bed and the matching set of Smeg kitchen appliances. After sipping an espresso and watching the daybreak over the Colosseum from your window, hit the pavements and get a closer look at Rome’s headline acts. The Roman Forum, Arch of Titus and the Via Sacra are all within a ten-minute walk. Plus, museums, piazzas and the iconic Pantheon are a seventeen-minute bus trip or ten-minute taxi ride away. 


Eventail

You can expect excellent service, an immaculate home, and a helping hand (should you need it) during your stay at this bolthole in Rome. The location is outstanding – in the central district, renowned for its bohemian vibe, excellent street food, and alternative shopping. The cobbled streets are lined with bars and alfresco cafes that invite you to spend the day taking in the Roman atmosphere. You can also easily get to all the big sites, like the Colosseum, in less than five minutes. The apartment itself is a haven of neutral tones, and hardwood floors add a touch of class. Art depicting Roman scenes hangs on the wall, so there’s no forgetting you’re in the Italian capital. There’s also a little shared courtyard within the building, where you can take a seat at the benches and admire the medieval facade of the building – all sand-coloured walls and bright green shutters.

Odes & Oratorios

With its quaint cobblestone streets, bearing a delightful tangle of ochre-hued architecture, artisan cafes and vintage boutiques, the residential district of Monti offers a community feel and proximity to the main sights. You'll find this home tucked away in this creative part of town, just behind Oppian Hill. Here, you're within a ten-minute walk from the Colosseum, the Basilica of Saint Mary Major and the Roman Forum. 

Inside, it's a timeless combination of white walls, wooden floors and high ceilings. Newly renovated interiors promise a want-for-nothing stay, especially in the bathrooms – beautifully decorated and equipped with contemporary fixtures. We especially love the open-plan living area, with its cosy lounge and fully-equipped kitchen. Here, floods of sunlight stream through the large windows, creating a peaceful atmosphere primed for relaxation. Spend mornings roosted around the dining table for espressos and pastries before slipping out for a day of exploring.

Aperture

You know what they say – location is everything. Well, if that's true, you can't do much better than Monti. Some of Rome's most famous sights are only ten minutes away on foot – The Colosseum and The Forums – yet this neighbourhood is anything but a tourist trap. There's an authentic atmosphere in this part of town, with plenty of traditional eateries, vintage stores and chic wine bars loved by locals. It's also pretty quiet, all things considered. You'll find this apartment on a pretty street, only a few steps from Parco del Colle Oppio. With a bright living area, stylish bathrooms and comfortable bedrooms, this home is a calm place to escape the hustle and bustle. Pour yourself a glass of Italy's finest wine and relax on the sofa or around the glass dining table. If you're in the mood to rustle up a meal, the compact kitchen has plenty of dishes and culinary gear, though it's on the smaller side. There's even a desk in the second bedroom if you need to check work emails, but if it were up to us, we'd spend every day sipping espresso in one of the cafes, basking in the magic of Rome.

Odes & Symphonies

Run by a team of professionals, you can expect to be well looked after during your stay at Odes & Psalms. While it's not the most characterful home in our books, it’s super comfortable, with a large living and dining area, and two immaculate bedrooms. The main reason to stay here, however, is the location. This residential neighbourhood has a real local feel with a side of bohemian spirit. You're also close to plenty of big attractions, without having to deal with masses of tourists. If it were just up to us, that’s exactly the kind of holiday we’d be after. 

Odes & Psalms

This bright and elegant apartment situated in the heart of Rome is a perfect place for a family or a small group of friends to base themselves while they explore all that the Eternal City has to offer – and there is a lot. From here, you’ll easily access both the iconic landmarks and the more local scene – not to mention great public transport links on your doorstep meaning that you can reach all parts of the city in moments. 

Your home will greet you with a large open-plan living room and kitchen area, with a comfy sofa inviting you to kick off your shoes and relax with a glass of Italian wine. Although there are some fantastic restaurants around, particularly in the Monti area, you’ll also have the option to rustle up quick and delicious snacks at home, courtesy of the modern kitchen. Share your meals with your loved ones at the dining table, which also doubles as a laptop-friendly workspace. 

For a night of restful sleep, you’ll have the choice between two plush bedrooms, one featuring a double bed and the second two singles, with additional sleeping spaces available on the sofa bed in the living room. Wake up restored and enjoy a leisurely breakfast while you plan your day’s excursions – start by walking down to the Forum, a ten-minute stroll, or browse through the vintage stores of Monti. 

Liz & Burton 

Situated right in the heart of Rome, moments away from the Colosseum and the Forum, and yet also tucked away from the main tourist tracks, this bright and modern apartment is an ideal place for a family or an intimate group of friends to base themselves while they enjoy all the wonders of the Eternal City. 

This home will greet you with a generous open-plan living room and kitchen area, filled with light and offering plenty of room to relax after a long day of exploring the city. While there is no shortage of incredible restaurants in the area, you’ll also have the option to put together delicious meals at home and you can share them with your loved ones at the dining table – this is also a great spot to catch up on any laptop duties, should a need arise. Enjoy an evening of wine and movies on the comfy sofa, before heading off to the land of sweet dreams which awaits you in the plush bedrooms. 

Choose between two equally lovely rooms, one featuring a double bed and one with two singles, with additional sleeping spaces in the living room. Welcome a new day with breakfast and fresh coffee and plan your Roman adventures. 

Outside, you’ll find yourself a short stroll away from the vintage charm of Monti and the historic glory of Ancient Rome, and the proximity of the Vittorio Emanuele metro station means that you can easily access all parts of the city. 

Anita & Marcello 

While the bold colours in Gladiator Sun won’t appeal to everyone, we really like it, and it has lots going for it beyond the design. It’s right by the Colosseum, and the host, Mary, also pushes the boat out when it comes to service. It’ll be really good for people who are after a slightly more hotel-like experience. There’s a daily cleaning service and someone at reception until 11pm, as well as free laundry, great breakfast options, and recommendations of all the places tourists don’t know about.


Gladiator Sun

With front-row views of the Colosseum, this Rome apartment brings you closer to the city’s ancient heart than most. Set in the quiet, characterful district of Celio, the space offers a peaceful retreat just moments from the action. Tall windows, and soft light create a refined and relaxing atmosphere – a modern take on classic Italian style. After a day of wandering basilicas, cobbled lanes and all the must-see sights, you’ll love coming home to a long soak in the generous bathroom.

Colosseum Views

Brilliantly located in the heart of Monti, one of Rome’s oldest residential neighbourhoods and famed for its bohemian edge and cool bars, this home offers the ideal starting point for a Roman adventure. With fresh, cool, open spaces, comfortable furniture and a wealth of local amenities, all guests need to do is drop their bags off and head on out sightseeing with the help of the public Metro station, which can be found ten minutes away from home. Moreover, guests can easily walk to the Colosseum or the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore from here, and in a scenic twenty-five-minute stroll, a full day of exploring the Trevi Fountain, Roman Forum, Pantheon, etc. can all be achieved, all the while opportunities for the finest dining, wine tasting, and shopping are around every corner, and not to be missed.

Odes & Arias

Doorman

Gladiator Reef is not one that will appeal to people who are after neutral tones and understated design. There’s a mix of bright colours all over the place, and this gives the space a bit of individuality. The host, Mary, also pushes the boat out when it comes to service - there’s a daily cleaning service, as well as free laundry, great breakfast options, and recommendations of all the places tourists don’t know about. If that wasn’t enough, it’s also only a few hundred metres from the Colosseum.


Gladiator Reef

If you’ve ever been torn between staying in a hotel or in a private home, look no further. At Odes & Cantatas, guests will be able to enjoy the best of both worlds. This building is run by a management company, so you can expect an immaculate home and excellent service, while still enjoying the privacy and freedom of a real home. More importantly, however, this home is brilliantly located in the neighbourhood of Monti. Famed for its bohemian edge, the streets are lined with cafes and you can do some of the best vintage and alternative fashion shopping in the entire city. 

Odes & Cantatas

Located in only a short walk away from Nero's Golden House and Opium Hill, Odes & Chorals is situated in a sweet spot that's central enough to walk to the sights but tucked away on a quiet street. You'll certainly appreciate how calming this home is after a long day of urban exploration, and the natural light in the communal area will create a lovely breakfast atmosphere as well. The design of this home might not be to everyone's taste, but it's cosy, big, and well kept by a dedicated team of professionals. 

Odes & Chorals

With neutral colours and bright living space, this home is a relaxed place to rest your head on a visit to the Italian capital. After a long day of sightseeing, the roomy communal area is the perfect place to rest tired feet – plop down on the cosy white sofa (which doubles as a sofa bed) with a glass of local wine and take a load off. Both bedrooms are super comfortable and the bathrooms are stylish, with rainfall showers and built-in hair dryers. You'll also feel right at home in the compact kitchen, but with so many authentic eateries and restaurants in this neighbourhood, we're sure you'd rather dine out. Speaking of location, you're in a great spot for exploring. Whether it's your first trip to Rome or you're a seasoned visitor, Monti has plenty for everyone – vintage stores, trendy cafes and chic wine bars. Best of all, this apartment is practically next door to the Parco del Colle Oppio, only a ten-minute stroll from the Domus Aurea and The Colosseum.

Odes & Chants

Fireplace

Decked out in intense colours and on the fourth floor with no lift, Gladiator Stripes isn’t one for the faint-hearted. We’re big fans of the look though, and it’s clear that the place is very well-kept. The host, Mary, also pushes the boat out when it comes to service - there’s a daily cleaning service and someone at reception until 11pm, as well as free laundry, great breakfast options, and recommendations of all the places tourists don’t know about.


Gladiator Stripes

For a spacious one-bedroom apartment close to the action, look no further than this convenient address. A stone's throw from Parco del Colle Oppio – which overlooks Rome's iconic Colosseum – and a short journey from the baroque beauty of Piazza Navona and Trastevere's trendy trattorias, nearby bus stops and metro stations ensure this home offers easy access to the city sights from a peaceful residential base.

The apartment itself offers ample space for up to four people, with large windows illuminating the main open-plan living space, while the bedroom is slightly set back from the road for an undisturbed night of beauty sleep. A well-equipped kitchen includes everything you could need for a quiet night in. Still, with Testaccio's traditional culinary scene a twenty-minute metro journey away, we don't imagine it'll get all that much use. One of Rome's last remaining residential neighbourhoods in the historic city centre, authentic Roman experiences don't come much more real than Testaccio.



Murmillo

This modern and well-presented home is situated in the superb neighbourhood of Monti. Not only is this recently gentrified area a hub for outstanding street food, alternative fashion, and traditional alfresco café culture, it’s also within easy walking distance of top attractions, like the Colosseum or the Forum. Reach the world's most beloved amphitheatre in just eight minutes and explore the ancient Roman ruins, only a quick ten-minute stroll from your swanky pad. On top of all of that, truly, the best part about this trendy district is that, even with its proximity to the big sites, it’s not overrun with clamouring tourists and intense crowds, meaning you can raise the curtain on the locale and get a real sneak peek of life in Rome. Back home, there's a real sense of elegance, with the minimalist and sociable open-plan layout, sparkling with glass-topped surfaces, sleek wooden floors and tasteful artwork of the surrounding area. We love the statement pieces too, especially the animal print chair. The serene coffee tones and ample space to chill out makes this the perfect spot to unwind after a long day spent sightseeing or wandering the lively streets outside.

Odes & Anthems

Bicycles

Where do you start with this graceful yet modern apartment? Maybe the view of the Colosseum? Perhaps the unusual but brilliant combination of classic, vintage, and glam? Or we could talk about how well-equipped the place is, from the smart electrics system to the luxurious rainfall showers? Serve breakfast around the charming dining table and pour yourself a coffee from the complimentary pod machine. Stroll around the palazzo, taking in the rustic beauty of the place. Sink into the sofa in the master bedroom, admiring the floral design and beauty of the boiserie with a quiet cuppa. We’ll just say that it’s a fantastic home, in a beautiful building, in one of the best areas in the city. Just a fifteen-minute walk to the Colosseum, under thirty minutes (on foot) to Trevi Fountain, as well as being surrounded by authentic bistros, fine-dining restaurants and classy cafés – the limoncello is never far from hand here.

Take Me Away

If you're here to visit all of Rome's most recognisable spots, locations don't much more convenient than this. Just steps away from the beautiful Colosseo Gardens and less than ten minutes walk from the incredible Colosseum itself, you'll be a short walk from the nearest Metro stop, with easy access to the rest of the city's treasures. Set in a typical period building, it's a smart, modern home designed for simplicity and comfort.

It's not the most spacious home in our collection but it's ideal for a couple or a solo traveller, and can easily stretch to sleeping four thanks to a sofa bed in the open-layout living space. And while the kitchen area is on the small side, it's perfectly practical for cooking light meals at home. For everything else, you're just a stroll away from some of the neighbourhood's numerous restaurants. 

Wine & Travertine

Inside, Bellflower is large and comfortable, and while the design isn’t particularly avant-garde, the neutral colour scheme makes for a calming overall effect. The two balconies are also a nice touch, without being overwhelming. What does stand out, however, is the location. The Colosseum is at the end of the street (maybe 200m, at a stretch), yet because it’s on the less-frequented side, the streets are surprising free of tourists. 


Bellflower

Just 100 metres from the Colosseum, this apartment is situated in one of Rome’s oldest districts. The surrounding narrow streets are lined with bars and restaurants – this is a lively part of the city. Eclectic and full of charm, the apartment has been lovingly decorated by its well-travelled owners, blending bohemian touches and keepsakes with antiques. It’s practical too, with a well-equipped kitchen – not that you’ll need to cook, with so many eateries on your doorstep. With a guest count of four, two will sleep on a sofa bed in the living space, which might be more comfortable for children. 

Charms of the Colosseo

Record Player

If location is what you're after, you can't get much better than this one-bed in the heart of Rome. Each day, you'll be greeted by living history, with views of the Colosseum and the Altare della Patria from the private balcony. Or if you venture out, you'll be right in the action, making this a solid shout for sightseers and business travellers alike. And, if you plan on venturing further afield, no worries – you'll be well-connected on public transport lines, too. 

 Colosseum Dream

Paid Parking

The ideal Roman retreat, this apartment is mere moments from the Colosseum. You couldn't ask for a better vantage point if sightseeing is on your to-do list. Outside, you'll find the famous landmark at the end of the street, plus nearby public transportation makes it easy to explore further afield. The apartment itself is on the first floor of a 17th-century building. There's a compact kitchenette suitable for snacks, a bright living area with a glimpse of the Colosseum, and a sofa bed for flexible sleeping arrangements. The local area can be a little noisy, and there isn't a lift, but we think it's a solid option for short stays.

The Roman Sun

Situated just 200 metres from the Colosseum, this first-floor apartment puts you in a prime position for sightseeing. You'll find plenty of restaurants and shops in the local area, not to mention tram stops and a metro station for adventures further afield. Back home, we love the views of the nearby Basilica of San Clemente. The living space is bright and comfortable, and though the kitchen lacks an oven, it has everything you need to rustle up lighter fare. There isn't a lift here, and two guests will sleep on the sofa bed – but, to be moments from Rome's most famous landmark, it more than fits the bill.

Courtyard

This stylish apartment is right around the corner from Termini, Rome's biggest train station, so there's no doubt that the transport links are excellent. But many of the must-see sights can also be reached on foot, including the magnificent Basilica Papale di Santa Maria Maggiore five minutes away and The Colosseum just a little further, about a twenty-minute stroll. After fueling up on pasta and gelato at Mercato Centrale Roma across the street, set off for the Trevi Fountain, The Pantheon and The Spanish Steps, all reachable in under half an hour. When you're not off exploring, shopping or sipping Italian wine at one of the bars in this area, rest your tired feet back at home. We love the bold green colours and funky design – picture cowhide rugs, vibrant pop art and leafy wallpaper in the bedroom. The bathroom is also one of our favourites – it has a huge walk-in rain shower that's the perfect way to relax after a busy day. And this pad has more than enough room for two, so there's plenty of space to make yourself at home. In the evenings, pour yourself an aperitif and rustle up a feast in the contemporary kitchen, then end the night with Netflix in bed, nodding off while to the sound of your favourite shows.

Verdant Verde

With its contemporary style full of sleek furnishings and decor, this is slice of modern living in an especially ancient part of Rome. Find yourselves right in the thick of the action as soon as you leave your door, with the Piazza Navona and Campo de Fiori close by, and the iconic Pantheon just down the street. When you’ve had your fill of sightseeing, kick off your shoes and climb into the cosy bed, or have a coffee outside in the courtyard.
