Catherine Wheel feels far bigger than it should thanks to the high ceiling, which is beautifully decorated and gives the flat its focal point. There are a few other pretty period details, like the fireplace (unfortunately only for show, these days) and a little balcony overlooking the street. You’re in a very convenient location, although not the most evocative. But the station is nearby and you’re a bit removed from the throngs of tourists that seem to march back and forth between the Trevi fountain and the Spanish Steps.

About Termini
Burst out of Rome's main station and you fall straight into the sights and sounds of Termini. Like many station districts around the world, it's loud, a bit grubby and ethnically diverse, home to some of the best foreign restaurants in the city. This is a convenient location, if not a particularly beautiful one, and your neighbours will be mostly fellow visitors to Italy looking for somewhere with excellent local...
