The thing that we really want to focus on here is Claudia’s hosting. We’ll come to the Origins & Principles itself in a minute, but it’s worth highlighting the attention to detail that she’s put in here – everything from bathrobes to kitchen supplies has been provided. And that’s not to say that she hasn’t done a good job on the interiors, which are fairly calm, but with pops of bright colour in the right places to keep it lively. The fact that the flat is positioned between Termini station and Monti is just an added bonus.

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...
