Gateway to Rome

When you think of Rome, architecture will likely come to mind, but the city is also known for picturesque gardens, a thriving art scene, and the most incredible food. This home, located on a quiet road in the Monti area, puts you right in the heart of The Eternal City and therefore, on the doorstep of all the things that make it great. Start by exploring Piazza Santa Madonna dei Monti, only a minute away, as you wind your way towards the notable sights. Sit outside of coffee shops, people watching as you sip your cappuccino from under an umbrella, before checking out the local shops. See the Colosseum, Forum, Arch of Constantine, and many more historical landmarks in all their glory just by wandering ten-minutes away from home.

With so much to see, you might be rushing from one landmark to another, so take a time out with a relaxing walk through the scenic Parco del Colle Oppio – if there happens to be a gelato vendor along the way, all the better. After a good dose of ruins, cathedrals and museums, return home to enjoy a glass of wine out on the balcony as you unwind.

The kitchen, although compact, allows you to whip up some basics and if you’re feeling inspired to cook, why not do it together and take your meal up on the rooftop terrace at sunset? You might opt to stay in after dinner, playing board games, or head out and experience nightlife at the bars in Piazza Santa Madonna dei Monti – whatever you choose, this comfortable home will be waiting for you when you return.
