- About The Experience
-
Unless you pitch a tent on the Coliseum, this apartment is as centrally located as you can get for exploring all the sights of ancient Rome. The Coliseum, Forum, Capitoline Museums, and a wealth of other must-see sights are just minutes by foot. From your balcony, you can watch the city go by on the street below. Right outside your doorway are cafes, pubs, restaurants, and public transportation, putting the whole city within your reach.
- Location Description
-
This apartment is located in the Colosseo district, right in the heart of Ancient Rome. The Coliseum is just blocks away, and it’s a short walk to Palatine Hill, the Roman Forum, and the Capitoline Museums. There are restaurants, cafes, and shops sight outside the apartment building, and there are streetcar and metro connections within walking distance to help you reach the city’s other sights, such as the Vatican and its museums.
Nearby Attractions: A neighborhood abundant with important historical sites (Roman Forum, Arch of Constantine), the area around the Colosseum is a dream for archaeology buffs. After a full day of sightseeing, head to the Monti neighborhood, a spot growing in favor among locals and visitors. A fashionable bar, La Bottega del Caffe, spills out on to the neighborhood’s main square of Piazza Madonna dei Monti. Ai Tre Scalini is another popular enoteca. Do not miss the vintage market, Mercato Monti, which houses 35 vendors every Sunday (Hotel Palatino Via Leonina 46/48).

Customer Reviews
Overall:
We had a great time. The apartment was well-located, well maintained, and spacious.
Enjoyed Most:
The proximity to all that is going on in Rome. We were just down the street from the Colliseum and the Palatine Hill. Taxis were close by and we could easily go wherever we wanted.
Enjoyed Least:
The property itself was GREAT, but unfortunately, there is a bar directly below the apartment where revelers spill out onto the street, yell and scream and play loud music. Even with the windows closed (not what we would have preferred) the noise level was still disturbing. We had to wear ear plugs to sleep. Also, there is only one small sofa (2 seats) If 2 of us were on the sofa, the other 2 either had to sit on the hard dining table chairs or lay in bed. A second sofa would be a great addition.
Surrounding Area:
At least a dozen restaurants within a few blocks--we enjoyed every one we tried. Just observing everyday life in the city. There is a little fruteria right downstairs and we became well acquainted with the owners. They were our "go-to" stop. One block away was a virtual tour of old Rome which was so-so, but part of "when in Rome..".
Tips or Restaurants:
Luzzi's is a very popular restaurant right down the street, but was always way overcrowded. We stopped at sidewalk cafes, sometimes without any customers and the food was fabulous. Try the less busy places--you'll have a great meal.
Directions:
We took a taxi.
Susan, May
