Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
The Elders is between Piazza di Spagna and Piazza del Popolo, giving it the sort of advantage most flats can only dream of. For seeing the sights, there is no better location, but other people have noticed that, so be prepared for a lot of tourists streaming past your front door. Inside, the place is very pretty – most of the design is quite modern, but it’s juxtaposed with the original structural features, such as the fireplace or the ceiling beams. Then there’s the view from the balcony, which speaks for itself.

About Spagna
Spagna is, perhaps unsurprisingly, focussed around the eponymous Piazza di Spagna. Along with the Trevi fountain, it’s one of the most visited sights in the entire city. Things weren’t always so auspicious – in the 16th century, the area was Rome’s red light district, but today it’s better known for the vine-covered romance of Via Margutta, home to Gregory Peck's impoverished journalist in Roman Holiday. This is not the place...
