This apartment is in an ideal location for culture vultures. It’s a fifteen-minute walk to the myriad museums and galleries of the Vatican and five minutes to the ancient Castel Sant’Angelo. The streets around buzz with local trattoria and pizzerias and, after sunset, the wine bars chatter to life. With all that activity on your doorstep, you’ll want a soothing haven to return to, and this pristine white apartment is exactly that. Pot plants, tapestry art and a raw wood dining table are natural accents against the otherwise pure white motif and built-in bookshelves show off a precise collection of global trinkets. Long, typically Roman windows flood the place with sunlight making it a joy to wake up and enjoy another day in the Italian capital.

About Prati
Prati sits cheek by jowl with Vatican City - not that you would necessarily know from within. The newest of Rome's districts, built between 1873-1921, its road plan was designed so that none of the streets would have St. Peter’s Dome in the background, a reflection of the tension between the new Italian state and the Vatican during its construction.

Host
This home is managed by Riccardo
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Riccardo and his team go a good job when it comes to bridging the gap between the professional and the personal. Their operation is super smooth, and they’re on call 24/7, but at the same time, they made us feel like part of the family, chatting, offering tips on where to go and what to see, and even keeping contact after we’d left.
