Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Sitting right on Piazza San Giovanni in Laterano, this apartment places you at the heart of one of Rome's most historically layered neighbourhoods – the Scala Santa is a two-minute walk, and the Colosseum is sixteen minutes on foot. What makes the position feel even more immediate is that the Basilica of San Giovanni in Laterano and the Scala Santa are visible from the apartment itself, so the ancient city is present before you've even stepped outside. A small balcony offers a quiet perch to take it all in, and the interior is comfortable and calm after a day of exploring.
