This lovely apartment is situated away from the busy centre city but still perfectly located within walking distance of everything. St Peter's Square and Basilica are only a 5 minute walk away. If you prefer not to walk into the centre, the bus takes you directly to Piazza Venezia where you can easily walk to the Colosseum and other main places of interest. We walked everywhere on most days with a 9 and 11 year old as the weather was so lovely. We booked our tours directly on the Vatican and Colosseum official sites in advance and this helped us avoid the tour touts and queues which were long if you hadn't booked online. There are lots of lovely restaurants in the St Pietro area which are 2 minutes from the apartment. Papa Rex, Goose, Mox Cafe and Osteria are all lovely. Francesca and Edoardo arranged our transport to and from the airport which really helped. We've really enjoyed our time in Rome and look forward to coming back one day and wouldn't hesitate to book this apartment again. Thank you!
