Coppedè isn’t the best-known quarter of the city, but it’s something of an undiscovered gem. The buildings, an enthralling mix of art nouveau, Greek classicism, medieval and baroque, were all built around the same time, and designed by the eponymous architect. As a flat, L'Esploratrice lives up to the area’s reputation for upmarket homes. It’s set over two floors, and retains many of the original, early-twentieth-century features – like the granite floors and carved wooden door frames.

About Coppedè
Hidden behind the main streets of Quartiere Trieste (in between Piazza Buenos Aires and Via Tagliamento), Coppedè feels a lot like a well-kept Roman secret. The brainchild of Gino Coppedè, it’s perfect for travellers looking to explore Rome off the usual tourist track.
