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

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. 

The Silver Dove

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

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.  

Two Wheels

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. 

Walk Like a Tiger

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.

Hot Off The Press

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 

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

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

Flavius is a beautiful flat in its own right, but it’s upstaged by the view. Separated from the Colosseum by just a few ruins, the vast windows surround the amphitheatre like a picture frame. And there’s the balcony, if you want to enjoy the fresh air at the same time as the view. The apartment is very new, and it feels impeccably kept. The kitchen, in particular, is very modern, and the rainfall shower was one of our favourite parts. 


Flavius

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

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.
