Apartment AP07 - Campo de' Fiori

Description

The District

Campo de’ Fiori is one of the most famous squares of the city, known for its traditional daily market and shops, characteristic boutiques, pizzerias and restaurants offering traditional Roman cuisine.

Five minutes away on foot is Piazza Farnese with its 16th century palace, Via Giulia with its elegant aristocratic residences and antique shops, the famous Piazza Navona, the Pantheon and Campidoglio.

The Trevi Fountain, Saint Peter’s, the Roman Forum and the Colosseum are also within walking distance. This is the heart of the capital, a safe, tranquil, elegant and historic area.

The apartment

It is located only 150 metres (2 minutes on foot) from Piazza Campo dei Fiori, in Via San Salvatore in Campo, a small and characteristic Renaissance back street in the heart of historic Rome.

The apartment is situated on the third floor (no lift) of a 15th Century building, decorated with frescos which are still visible on the façade. In fact, this building is mentioned as an example of art and history in the “Guide to the districts of Rome”, which illustrates the cultural value of the accommodation we offer.

From the luminous living room there is a wonderful view on the roof-top terraces with pots of lemon trees and beyond to the dome of the Church of S. Carlo ai Catinari (see photo on left hand).

The apartment it is 50 sq.m. big, it has two rooms and has recently been restored. Access to the apartment is by a characteristic internal staircase. The living room, bedroom and bathroom all lead off the entrance hall.

The spacious living room is furnished with a dining area for 5 people with an antique cupboard, a well equipped kitchenette (with the usual appliances and microwave oven included), and a sitting area with TV with Satellite and a comfortable double sofa-bed. A fifth bed could be added in the living room.

Two big windows make this a bright and cheerful room. A washing machine is offered for the use of guests. The bathroom with shower is spacious and functional. The white walls and terracotta floors give the apartment a Mediterranean atmosphere.

The good sized bedroom with its double bed (queen size) and spacious wardrobe, is tastefully and discretely decorated.

The apartment has independent heating and air conditioning the summer period, but the characteristically thick walls of the old buildings of Rome prevent excessive heat in summer or cold in winter. Bed linen and bath towels are provided.
