A hidden gem between the Tiber and Piazza Venezia, centred on lively Via del Portico d’Ottavia. Here is where you'll find this magnificent apartment, right in the beating heart of Rome's Jewish Quarter. Peer out of large windows in the living room at the cobbled streets below, and you'll soon discover a historic neighbourhood of makers studios, petite shops, kosher bakeries and thronging trattorias sitting alongside the unique square dome of Rome's main synagogue. The home's main living and dining room is furnished with dark wood and deep reds, which lend a warm, welcoming feel that will stay with you throughout your time here. The compact kitchen is perfect for rustling up a quick meal, but given that you're staying in a food lover's city, you could be forgiven for eating out most of the time. Handily, two of the area's best restaurants lie directly beneath your feet – Nonna Betta and Il Giardino Romano both serve up sumptuous Italian-Kosher dishes in an authentic atmosphere. The bright bedroom is a delight, and the direct access to a small outdoor courtyard is a massive plus, as is the en-suite bathroom, complete with a Jacuzzi tub. Step out of your apartment, and... you can reach must-see Roman sights such as the Pantheon and Colosseum in ten- and twenty-minute walks, respectively. Wander ten minutes across the Tiber, you'll find yourself in the hip, bohemian area of Trastevere with its innovative trattorias and craft beer pubs.

About The Jewish Quarter
The Ghetto of Rome was witness to some of the worst excesses of anti-semitism of the last 500 years. It was established by Papal decree in 1555, when all Roman Jews were consigned to a three hectare patch of the city, best known for its propensity to flood, and limited to jobs as fishmongers, ragmen and pawnbrokers.
