Wake up in one of Rome's most characteristic neighbourhoods at this charming penthouse apartment. Spread across two floors, this home is filled with light and colour, with plenty of cosy nooks where you can unwind after a day in the city. There are two outdoor terraces where you can soak up views over the streets of Flaminio – you'll hardly believe you're in the centre of the city. Just around the corner, Little London is a curious slice of British style in the Eternal City, and this area is also famed for its authentic trattorias and the contemporary art museum MAXXI – yet, you're just a short walk from the Piazza del Popolo.

About Flaminio
Lying just north of the city center, on the left side of the river Tiber, Flaminio stretches from Piazza del Popolo all the way up to Ponte Milvio —the Roman "Bridge of the Arts".
