Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Nestled in popular Prati, this home is a great choice for an authentic stay in Rome. By day, you can enjoy an espresso in one of the local cafes, browse the shops along Via Cola di Rienzo, and stroll to the Vatican. And by night, an array of alfresco wine bars, cocktail lounges and gourmet restaurants await. The home itself is full of character, with period furnishings sitting alongside modern conveniences. It’s worth noting that while the home sleeps eight, the dining table only seats four to six, and there isn’t sofa space for everyone. If that’s not a deal-breaker, we think this home would suit a family or group of friends wanting to be in the heart of the city.

About Prati
Prati sits cheek by jowl with Vatican City - not that you would necessarily know from within. The newest of Rome's districts, built between 1873-1921, its road plan was designed so that none of the streets would have St. Peter’s Dome in the background, a reflection of the tension between the new Italian state and the Vatican during its construction. Once a verdant area of meadows, vegetable gardens and vineyards,...

Host

This home is managed by a business on behalf of its owner. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. We were big fans of Salvatore when we met him. He’s in charge of looking after a few places around Rome, so he really knows what he’s doing, but he doesn’t sacrifice the personal touch.
