This sunny Italian apartment is all about space, home comforts, and a lush private garden that wraps around the home. Set in a residential area near St. Peter’s Basilica, it's a homely retreat with Rome at your fingertips. Inside, the interiors are bright and inviting, with a decorative piano, traditional furniture, and a fully equipped kitchen for practising your best Roman cuisine. The real highlight though? The garden. Whether you're dining al fresco or soaking up the sun, it's the perfect Roman backdrop for unforgettable moments. There are only two bathrooms, so sharing will be necessary for groups – but it's well worth it for the charm and unbeatable location.

Local guide
About Aurelio
Despite its proximity to the Vatican, Aurelio is still often overlooked by Romans and tourists alike, only mentioned as the butt of the joke. However, it has more to offer than most would believe. A bustling residential district, it has plenty of local haunts with the clientele spilling out onto the street, as well as several green squares and a Russian Orthodox church, Santa Caterina Martire. It’s worth noting that some parts can be hard to reach, even with public transport, and it becomes less prepossessing as you head further north or west.
