This hidden gem, located on the banks of the River Tiber and across the way from Castel Sant'Angelo, is the perfect resting point for a fun-filled Roman adventure. With bright, airy spaces, smartly compact settings, and stunning views, all guests need to do is kick off their shoes and relax before heading out in search of culture and history. When it comes to the beautiful charm of the home, we especially like the curated book collection with works by Jane Austen and F. Scott Fitzgerald. The apartment is in walking distance of Piazza di Spagna, with its many restaurants and bars, making sumptuous breakfasts and candlelit dinners easier than ever. Since many of Rome's most iconic sights are right on your doorstep, touring is a breeze, with the Museo del'Ara Pacis and Mausoleo di Augusto being no more than a four-minute stroll, the Pantheon a mere eight-minute walk, and the Trevi Fountain rounding up to thirteen minutes, among many others, we are sure there will always be something to fill your day.

About Prati
Prati sits cheek by jowl with Vatican City - not that you would necessarily know from within. The newest of Rome's districts, built between 1873-1921, its road plan was designed so that none of the streets would have St. Peter’s Dome in the background, a reflection of the tension between the new Italian state and the Vatican during its construction.
