Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
You can’t visit Rome without visiting the Vatican City – luckily this stylish abode is just a five-minute stroll to St. Peter's Square. It’s also only a ten-minute walk to the Vatican Museums, as well as Castel Sant'Angelo with its large roof terrace offering breathtaking views across the city. Right on this apartment’s street, there’s a range of restaurants, gelaterias and cafés to choose from – we think this is a wonderful location. After all that sightseeing, you’ll need somewhere super comfortable to return to. If you don’t fancy eating out for dinner, cook some pasta and enjoy at the dining table, next to the window with views across the neighbourhood. The bedrooms, with little touches like the distressed metal lights, and warm parquet floors, make for a charming retreat. So, when in Rome, if you want the perfect setting, combined with a comfortable home, look no further.

Host
This home is managed by Misael
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Although Peruvian by birth, Misael has lived in Italy since he was a child. He studied economics, but travelling was always his calling, so eventually he decided to dip his toes in the water of holiday rentals. He’s also big on design, something that comes through in the interior of the flat.
