Sogni di Spazio

Holiday Rental Description

Located on historic Via del Babuino and just a three-minute walk from the Spanish Steps, this bright, colourful home in Rome’s Spagna neighbourhood is the perfect base for those looking to be in the heart of the city’s action. Decked out in vibrant pieces of art and an eclectic blend of furnishings, this apartment is full of character and creative flair. We love the Chesterfield-style sofa in the living room, the see-through dining room chairs and the large windows that proffer views over Rome’s tiled rooftops towards the Vatican. However, our favourite spot is the master bedroom’s private balcony, ready to welcome mornings over coffee while taking in the buzz of the street below. After a refreshing soak under the rainfall shower, or an at-home massage organised by your host, set out to see the sights. Aside from the Spanish Steps that are a stone’s throw away, you’re just a five-minute walk from Villa Medici, while just under a fifteen-minute stroll will bring you to the Trevi Fountain and the Piazza Navona. After a day of sightseeing, sample one of the countless trattorias along your street (the host is happy to make a booking for you) or sit down to an intimate meal at home. End the night with a spritz on the balcony, before retreating to the comfortable bedrooms for a dreamy night’s sleep.


Home truths:
*The home is on the fifth floor of the building but the lift only goes up to the fourth floor – be prepared to climb about twenty steps to reach the apartment
*A cot is available – just ask the host when booking
*Smoking is allowed on the balcony
*The artwork might not be to everyone's taste
*The kitchen, while sleek, is not very big
*Paid parking is available on-site, though we recommend skipping the car and exploring Rome on foot or by taxi
