The Colosseum garden

This charming and cosy apartment is located in the most exclusive Rome historical centre, in a perfect location to visit Rome major touristic sites: the Coliseum, Nerone's Domus Aurea, the Basilica of S. Clemente, the Foro romano.

It is a comfortable 1 floor flat for 4 to 6 people, there is a lovely living room with a double sofa bed, two charming double bedrooms,with 2 single beds each (both can become double)one in the basement, the other one near the livingroom, a very modern bathroom with a comfortable shower and bathtub, a fully equipped kitchen with a table good for 6-8 persons, from there you can go in a fresh and sunny terrace-garden where you can relax in the evening after having walked all day long, or sun bath at lunch time if you decide to go back home for a siesta.....
Air conditioned but frankly speaking there is not much need of it since the rooms of the old roman palaces are fresh in summer and worm in winter, the ceiling is made of original terracotta 'voltine' recently restored and the floor is also in terracotta. It was completely renovated in Feb. 2012. wifi internet 24h free

Restaurants: Luzi and le Naumachie in Via Celimontana, Quattro e quattr'otto and the pizzeria I rioni in Via dei Santi quattro, La taverna dei Quaranta in Via Claudia. All walking distance!
Please remember that on the day of your arrival you will have to pay the city tax: 3.50 euro per day per person with more than 10 years old.

Great Apartment Near the Colosseum

Alessandra was a wonderful host who provided us with lots of recommendations and was always available when needed. The stay is very close to the Colosseum but is a few streets from the main road so it wasn't too noisy from all the tourists. We would stay here again!

We really enjoyed our stay at this apartment in Rome. Location was outstanding! Walking distance to the Colosseum and other sites. Easy access to metro and bus stops to get to other attractions. Plenty of delicious restaurants just meters away. Apartment was comfortable, clean and provided all basic amenities. We enjoyed the patio in the morning while drinking coffee. Alessandra was a great host, answered questions and communicated well.Only note I would make is that the second bedroom with twin beds is down a steep set of stairs, which was fine for us, but may be an issue for people with mobility issues. There is a pull out couch in the den.Thank you Alessandra!

Great spot

Excellent location, charming flat, superb communication with host. Not sure if I misunderstood the listing but I had thought based on pics that there were three bedrooms in addition to a living room, but the living room is the third bedroom with just a pull out couch.

Good location.

Good location for getting about - maybe a bit noisy in the early morning. Beds and furniture are a bit tired and floor needs a good steam cleaning and sealing. We enjoyed the outdoor space and the cafe on the corner is excellent.

The property was lovely and the location is excellent. Alex was really helpful, greeted us when we arrived and gave us some recommendations of places to visit and eat. She also helped with arranging a taxi back to the airport which was really kind. There were plenty of nice restaurants nearby and a shop just a few minutes walk away. The apartment has everything you need to enjoy your stay. It could be quite noisy at night sometimes as you could hear the noise from the other apartments around you as the walls were very thin, but this was a minor issue.

Super location, great host!

We really enjoyed our stay at the colosseum garden! The location is impeccable - walk out the front door, look left and there's the coliseum! Walk to the right and at the end of the block is San Clemente. Across the street are great restaurants, as well. I lived in Italy for 2 years and speak Italian, and this place was a great place to stay! The hostess, Alessandra, was also great. She was communicative prior to our arrival and even one night while there when I thought I was locked out. She was a pleasure to work with!

Perfect Place to Begin

We are so grateful and happy with our stay at the Colosseum Garden. It was the perfect place to start our family's Italy adventure. Our host arranged airport transport and greeted us at the apartment upon arrival, even making us a cup of coffee and making wonderful suggestions for places to eat and things to see. The apartment turned out to be in what I look back as my favorite part of Rome, fa little off the beaten path so quieter, and filled with delicious cafes and a nearby grocery, as well as the most incredible Basilica of St Clement. The beds were comfortable, wifi worked great and the apartment was filled with such old incredible character. If I ever am so lucky as to go back to Rome, I would definitely stay here again!! Grazie!!!
