Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This home is quite cosy – and by cosy, we do mean small. But, in its defence, the home has been recently renovated and boasts stunning parquet flooring and a beamed ceiling so beautiful, you’ll be immediately reminded of your idyllic Italian setting. Unfortunately, this area is popular amongst tourists, so do expect crowds even in the winter months. But we can’t blame them for concentrating here, you’re in the heart of Rome with Trevi fountain a mere ten-minute walk away.

Local guide
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...
