Ideal for a couple or solo traveller seeking to explore the Eternal City away from the tourist crowds, this stylish apartment is an ideal choice for its style, locale and generous outdoor space. Boasting a large private terrace equipped with a table and chairs for alfresco dining, this is the perfect spot for espressos and pastries each morning ahead of a day of sightseeing, or a celebratory glass of Italian wine in the evening before setting out to sample one of the local trattorias. Inside, the apartment has been cleverly designed to maximise its space, with a comfy seating area that beckons chats over board games or lounging with one of the books from the shelves, as well as a mezzanine bedroom inviting a restful night’s sleep. With a petite kitchenette as well as a sleek, modern bathroom, you’ve got everything you need for a carefree city stay. When it comes to exploring, make a beeline for the Vatican where Saint Peter's Basilica takes centre stage, or hop on the Metro at nearby Baldo Degli Ubaldi to discover the countless historic sights in Rome’s buzzing centre.

Local guide
About Valle Aurelia
Valle Aurelia is directly behind the Vatican, but you’d never guess from the number of tourists. Perhaps the nickname, Valle dell’Inferno (Valley of Hell) is enough to put them off. Rest assured though, it’s not a comment on the place, rather a reference to the presence of enormous furnaces in the area, which were in use up until the 1920s. It was the heart of metalworking, clay firing and brickmaking in Rome for centuries, and this instilled a vibrant working-class character to the neighbourhood, which endures today.
