In a city bursting with stories like Rome, this apartment is suitably characterful. From the wooden beams on the ceiling to the vintage furnishings and the myriad artwork hanging on the walls, you'll be greeted by lived-in charm as soon as you unlock the door. However, that's not to say it's a throwback. The stark white walls throughout feel more high-end art gallery than dusty museum, and make the interior a bright and inviting place to kick back after sightseeing. And we can guarantee that there'll be a lot of that thanks to the prime location in the Jewish Quarter of the city. In just two minutes' walk, you can see the pretty Fontana Delle Tartarughe, built close to half a millennium ago, as well as the grand Palazzo Mattei. There's a wealth of landmarks to see in a radius of ten minutes' walk, from Campidoglio and Teatro Marcello to the banks of the River Tiber where the remains of Roman bridges still stand to this day.

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. More than 300 years of segregation were only ended in 1870, when many...
