Set on the top floor of a historic building in Trastevere, this apartment offers a birds-eye view of the Eternal City. There isn't a lift, but the climb to the fourth level is worth it for the scenery alone – you'll be able to see Caelian Hill, the Vittoriano, and the Basilica di Santa Francesca Romana bell tower. But there's also a private terrace and cosy living space to enjoy, too. You'll find plenty to see and do in Trastevere, from artisan shops to traditional trattorias. If you want to take a closer look, you can stroll to the Trevi Fountain and Colloseum in thirty minutes.
