Yantra is so close to the Vatican that we recommend you carry your passport with you whenever you go out – you never know when you'll be tempted back to Musei Vaticani for some exquisite art or to the Sistine Chapel for another look around Michelangelo's frescoed masterpiece. A stroll through the immediate neighbourhood of Prati will bring you back to the present day in stylish fashion with its hidden wine bars, upscale boutiques and trendy art nouveau decorated streets. Upon your return, you'll find a cosy interior with antique objects and a sense of yesteryear charm. While the rustic adornments add interest, we love the quirky wallpaper prints in each bedroom as much as we do the Roman simplicity of this cosy home. There are all the usual mod cons needed for a comfortable stay too, so if you're looking for an authentic experience in an enviable location, then this stripped-back pad is a great option.

About Vatican

It's not always clear when places become popular tourist destinations. However, with the Vatican City, we know the exact date – 67AD when the apostle St Peter was martyred at the foot of the Vatican Hill and buried nearby. Over the next 2000 years, his modest tomb would evolve into St Peter's Basilica, the centre of the Catholic Church and one of the most visited spots in Rome. The Vatican...
