We spent 10 days in Alessandro’s fabulous sculpture home. It really is a work of art and feels very special to stay somewhere so unique. We loved sitting on the terrace, surrounded by the trees, watching the green parakeets whilst sipping on Aperol Spritzes! The home is in a great location, surrounded by trees, and feels like a bit of respite from the hustle and bustle of the busy city centre. It is very secure and private. The bus stop is only a couple of minutes walk away with very frequent buses into central Rome. We really enjoyed exploring Rome and the surrounding areas (thoroughly recommend Pompeii and Tivoli) and we did most of this using public transport which is really reasonable and reliable (we did an organised coach day trip to Hadrian’s villa and Tivoli as it’s tricker to access via public transport). If you are using the trains from Roma Termini station make sure you leave plenty of time as it is a HUGE station and some platforms are quite a long walk to get to!
The kitchen in the Home is equipped for basic cooking but it is useful to note it only has a small toaster oven so may be a bit trickier for those wanting to do more adventurous cooking during their stay!
If you are coming to visit Rome you must stay at the sculpture home!
PS Alessandro’s dog who pops over to say hello when you are in the garden is gorgeous!
