Monti’s streets are brimming with history, but few buildings have a more concrete attachment to the past than the one that homes Barocco Charm. Painter Domenichino, one of the most famous baroque classicists, stayed here back in the first half of the seventeenth century. And the structure has been kept substantially the same ever since – as original features including the wooden ceiling and exposed brickwork have been left untouched. Cute and compact the home boasts bags of charm, while modern finishings ensure both comfort and practicality. Explore the historic area of Monti where you'll find cafe's and restaurants within walking distance, before heading through Parco del Colle Oppio, a majestic park that will lead you to the iconic Colosseum in just a fifteen-minute walk. With the best pizza, pasta, coffee and gelato in the world all at your fingertips, be sure to taste the local delicacies amidst your adventures in Rome.

About Monti
It's a truth universally acknowledged that in every city, there is a district just waiting to be described as expressing the spirit of the old Soho. In Rome, Monti is that place, and the connection is a fair one - although what Monti lacks in advertising agencies and mustachioed tech bros, it makes up for in creative enclaves, smoky bars and delicious places to eat. Nestled right in the heart...
