Wake up and wander to the Vatican City from this well-located apartment. Just twenty minutes from the historic enclave, you'll be admiring stunning sights like the Sistine Chapel and St Peter's Basilica in no time. It might be a little sparse inside (and two guests will have to be content with a sofa bed), but as a base for groups to unwind after a busy day in the city, it fits the bill. There's plenty of room to spread out in the living space, and the compact balcony (overlooking a leafy garden) is a bonus – in the evening, it's the ideal spot to reminisce about your Roman holiday over a glass of wine.

Local guide
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.
