Despite its position in an old, atmospheric square near Campo de’ Fiori, Falconry has been renovated recently, and most of the furniture has been made to measure, making the whole place feel very well crafted.

High up among the rooftops, it feels like a little refuge from the hectic city below.

*The lift only goes up to the sixth floor, so you'll have to climb the stairs for the last stretch
*Two people can sleep on a sofa bed in the living room
*The bedroom is on the small side
