The host, Mary, also pushes the boat out when it comes to service - there’s a daily cleaning service and someone at reception until 11pm, as well as free laundry, great breakfast options, and recommendations of all the places tourists don’t know about.

About Colosseum & Roman Forums

As home to the most famous landmark in Rome, today Celio is better known as Colosseum. It's not surprising – the amphitheatre casts a wide shadow across almost all of the district, not least for the heaving masses of tourists that collect at its heels all year round.

Host


This home is managed by Maria Alberta

This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Maria has several flats in the same building, and runs them almost as a hotel. The level of service she offers is brilliant, but you still get the freedom of a holiday rental, and all in the shade of the Colosseum.
