Map & Owner's Profile
La Violetta, Exquisite and Chic 1 BR Apt. in Central Location
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Vaticano (St. Peters & Vatican)
When we purchased this flat, we thought it would have been perfect for a vacation, as it is located very close to the Vatican Museums, one of the most exciting world heritage site. It also near the Metro, allowing easily access to other significant sites of Rome. You do not need to use a car, as it is within easy walking distance of all the attractions.
The Unique Benefits at this Apartment
We think this apartment is not banal. We furnished it with furniture bought from antique shops or inherited from our grandparents, in order to make it suitable and comfortable for our guests. Moreover, it is located in a lovely district full of beautiful buildings, with cafés, restaurants, good shopping and a scrumptious indoor market right on your doorstep.
Owner's Map of Vaticano (St. Peters & Vatican)
This newly refurbished apartment has been in our family since 1930. Refurbishment was managed by 2 architects who have brought a rare feeling of clarity, character and style to a really unique space. It is superbly located for visiting the Vatican and the City as a whole, and my husband and I are always available for advice and guidance on the best and most interesting bits of Rome.
