Around the corner from Porta Venezia station, and only a few blocks from Giardini Pubblici Indro Montanelli, Marionette is in a convenient location for getting around the city. It’s not going to set the world on fire in terms of design, but that’s not really the point. Instead, it’s comfortable, very well looked after by Alexey, and in general, it just has a welcoming atmosphere.

To relax, you’ve got Indro Montarelli public gardens, while if you’re after a livelier vibe, the LGBT scene is centred in the district. Whatever you...
