While it’s not the most stunning place in the city, Fern Fronds is a really good practical option for a comfortable stay in Rome.

About Pincio & Villa Borghese
Just to the north-east of the tourists of Spagna, Pincio and Villa Borghese offer welcome respite from the masses. The affluent neighbourhood revolves around the enormous Borghese Gardens, with elegant landscaping influenced by the English countryside, and more and more Romans are choosing the spacious streets (with plenty of onstreet parking) over the cobbled alleys of the city centre.
