One of Rome’s most famous spots, the Trevi Fountain is a spectacular example of Baroque architecture. Legend has it that if you toss a coin into the fountain with your right hand over your left shoulder, the universe will guarantee you a return to Rome one day – remember to bring all your loose change. As well as the fountain, the Trevi neighbourhood has plenty to see and do. You’ll find other landmarks like the Spanish Steps and the Pantheon, as well as loads of bars, restaurants and shops. The travel experts at Plum Guide are here to help you make the most of the city, so if you’re ready to start planning, take a look at our top picks of Airbnb alternatives in Rome, Italy near the Trevi Fountain.
Roma Bella Roma
Roma Bella Roma, Plum Guide home in Rome, Italy
If a Roman emperor lived in an apartment in the 21st century, then this opulent home is probably what it would look like. We love its luxurious furnishings, from the marble kitchen and classic artwork to the plush blue velvet sofas and gold accents. You won’t be able to resist using the fancy kitchen, but if you don’t feel like cooking, you can always let the private chef cater a Roman feast for you. We recommend this pad for two couples or a small group of friends looking for a convenient sightseeing base, with attractions like the Trevi Fountain and Via del Corso's boutiques and restaurants a four-minute walk away.
Eva’s Nest
Eva's Nest, Plum Guide home in Rome, Italy
Just a stone’s throw from the Trevi Fountain, this stylish home is everything we could ever want from a stay in Rome. The rooms are bright and calming, perfect for relaxing after exploring the Eternal City. There are three generously-sized bedrooms to choose from, each with an ensuite bathroom – try and nab the one with the spa-like wet room so that you can pamper yourself after a day on your feet. There's also a charming balcony overlooking the courtyard – this is a great spot for morning espressos or late-night drinks while you chat about your adventures. Just a short walk from Via Condotti and Piazza di Spagna, a stay here means you’re well-placed for shopping and sightseeing.
Triton’s Fire
Triton's Fire, Plum Guide home in Rome, Italy
When it comes to Airbnb alternatives in Rome, Italy near the Trevi Fountain, you won't want to miss out on this one-bedroom apartment. Just a one-minute walk from the Baroque masterpiece (and less than ten to the Spanish Steps), the home is so close you can roll out of bed and get to the fountain before the crowds of tourists do. Although it's on the smaller side, there's still enough room for a couple to cook and sleep, as well as relax on the balcony – this is a lovely spot to enjoy a glass of wine at the end of the day. We also love the addition of the vintage typewriter and retro red telephone. But our favourite feature would have to be the sauna in the bathroom, where you can indulge in a little detox session before bed.
Filo Gold
Filo Gold, Plum Guide home in Rome, Italy
This modern apartment is best suited for those seeking something a little stylish. As you step into the apartment, you’re greeted by the light-filled lounge with its large arched windows and parquet floors. The solid black wall adds a little drama to the room, while the contemporary artwork and chic lighting give it that edge. The plush sofa is a comfy spot for catching up with friends, while the dining table is just the right size for a couple of pizzas and some wine. The kitchen is small, but no bother – there are plenty of eateries on your doorstep. When you’ve freshened up and you’re ready to explore the Eternal City, you’ll find the Trevi Fountain just three minutes away on foot, while the Pantheon is reachable in ten.
Grandezza Romana
Grandezza Romana, Plum Guide home in Rome, Italy
Be honest, how often can you say you’ve stayed in a former 17th-century palace? Although this apartment's decor has been scaled back for a more contemporary feel, there are still hints of its regal past through the marble statues and grand high ceilings. The home has two double bedrooms, but a second lounge can fit two extra guests on the sofa bed. Although a fully-equipped kitchen has home cooking covered, it’ll be hard to resist popping into the pizzeria right next door to you. All fuelled up, take a quick stroll to the Trevi Fountain to make a wish before continuing onto the Piazza di Spagna and the Spanish Steps, just a seven-minute walk away.
Time’s Path
Time's Path, Plum Guide home in Rome, Italy
This pad feels like stepping into your nan's house, in the best possible way. It's bursting with character, from the patterned wallpaper to the vintage furniture and Oriental rugs. We love how at home we felt here, especially in the lounge with its comfy sofas and armchairs to gather and swap stories at the end of the day – sometimes that's exactly what you want from a getaway. While there are two full-sized bedrooms to choose from, the third bedroom upstairs only has a single bed, so it would be better suited for a child or as a second lounge – you'll even get wonderful views of the rooftops from up here. Being so centrally located, there's no rush to leave in the mornings, either. You're just a two-minute walk from the Trevi Fountain.
Mint Humbug

Ready to see the city? The Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps are just a three-minute walk away, and you’ll also find pizzerias and gelaterias nearby.
Sandalwood & Bergamot
Sandalwood & Bergamot, Plum Guide home in Rome, Italy
Rome was made for romancing, and this one-bedroom home is the perfect love nest. We love the whimsical decor, with its arched doorways, floral wallpaper and antique furniture. But the best part would have to be its views – curl up on the window seat in the kitchen and you’ll be treated to a front-row seat (literally) to the Trevi Fountain. It's so close you could probably toss a coin into the water without having to step foot outside. When it comes to date night, there are a huge choice of restaurants on the surrounding streets – we recommend Ristorante Agrodolce Roma for classic Roman dishes. Walk it off with a stroll to the Pantheon, less than ten minutes away on foot, while the Colosseum is reachable in twenty.
Clarabelle

Set on the top floor of a 16th-century palace, this splendid home grants you all the bragging rights. As you step into the lounge, you’re welcomed by bold decor, from the red armchairs to the animal print seating. Whip up a meal in the snazzy kitchen and gather around the marble dining table, or catch up on some work at the little corner desk. Emails answered, it’s time to put the laptop away and head out for some sightseeing – the Trevi Fountain is just four minutes away on foot. When you’re all tired out, head back to enjoy a nightcap on the balcony before settling down in the rustic bedrooms with their stained-glass windows and low, exposed beams.

Sleeping up to nine people, this apartment boasts clean and bright interiors with sunshine streaming in through the windows. Despite its central location (you’ll find the Trevi Fountain within striking distance), the home doesn’t compromise on style.
