Tucked behind the ruins of the Mausoleum of Augustus, this sumptuous flat is just five minutes on foot from the Piazza di Spagna and the Villa Medici. Rome is truly your oyster from this central spot – excellent restaurants, must-see landmarks, fashionable boutiques on Via dei Condotti and lively wine bars are practically on your doorstep. But location isn't the only reason we love this apartment. Step through the front door and you'll find a space richly classical in its design, with marble, gold and florals at the fore. Although the style is straight out of the 1800s, we found it very welcoming and contemporary. We enjoyed rustling up dinner in the sleek, compact and fully-equipped kitchen, followed by lounging on the sofa with a glass of wine. The main bedroom suite is also a favourite – not only is the bed comfortable, but the en-suite bathroom has a chromotherapy rainfall shower that feels like heaven after a long day on your feet.

Local guide
About Spagna
Spagna is, perhaps unsurprisingly, focussed around the eponymous Piazza di Spagna. Along with the Trevi fountain, it’s one of the most visited sights in the entire city. Things weren’t always so auspicious – in the 16th century, the area was Rome’s red light district, but today it’s better known for the vine-covered romance of Via Margutta, home to Gregory Peck's impoverished journalist in Roman Holiday. This is not the place...
