In the colourful, bohemian Trastevere district, you’ll find this spacious and light-filled apartment up in the eaves of an old building, between the Piazza di Santa Apollonia and the restless Piazza di Santa Maria. The design of the home is functional and serviceable with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The open-plan living-dining arrangement is great for bigger groups while enjoying Prosecco Negronis before heading out to enjoy a famously unhurried dinner at a local trattoria. You’re just one typically winding Roman street away from the south bank of the River Tiber, where a twenty-minute walk via the Ponte Garibaldi takes you to the iconic Pantheon and a ten-minute car ride places you right in the heart of the Vatican City.
