About this property

Vatican Penthouse with Terrace - St Peter's Dome view

Placed in one of the most central areas of the eternal city, this wonderful 160 m2 apartment is composed of a living room, a dining room, 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and a large terrace overlooking Saint Peter's dome; it comfortably hosts up to 8 guests.

The apartment has been completely renovated in 2013 and refurbished with both modern and original antique furniture. It is on the third and last floor of an historical building and for this reason there is no lift. Free Wi-Fi Internet is available in all parts of the apartment.

As soon as you enter, you will be fascinated by the spacious entrance and the long corridor through which you can access all areas of the property. The apt is provided with a 22sqm, which is an added value as buildings in the area usually don't have external spaces. Both from the terrace and the dining room windows you can see Via Cola di Rienzo, Piazza Risorgimento, the Vatican walls and St. Peter's dome.

The day area consists of a living room, with a double sofa bed, Satellite Tv, and a dining room with a very large table that can sit up to 10 people. A fully equipped kitchen completes the area, provided with oven, dish washer, toaster, kettle, Italian coffee maker and Nespresso coffee machine.

The night area is composed of three bedrooms: one is provided with two single beds, the other two have 2 doubled beds. The apt has 3 bathrooms, two provided with showers and one with a tub. Washing machine and dishwasher are available for our guests as well.

If needed, a single couch bed is in the dining room and can host an additional guest.

Maria was amazing and so accommodating! When our flight was canceled she offered to move our days for us with no additional costs. Maria also allowed us a late check out, since she didn’t have anyone staying the day we left. The place was roomy and not the typical compact layout like most places in Rome, along with plenty of restrooms. The location was perfect and everywhere we wanted to go was in walking distance or available through the metro, which was a few blocks away. We want to go back in the next few years and plan to rent Maria’s beautiful home again. Thank you for everything Maria, you’re the best!

The Vatican Penhouse with Terrace was ideal for walking to visit St. Peter's Basilica,Museum and the Sistene Chapel. The accommodation was perfect for three couples and the terrance was a bonus to have. It did say it's on the third floor, and had 80 stairs to climb. We would highly recommend this location to friends and family.

FANTASTIC apartment in Rome

The apartment was spacious, clean, and well furnished with a fabulous location and host. The description was accurate. There were good restaurants, markets, ATMs, and gelato within blocks and the Vatican was so close. The patio and views were added bonuses. This perfectly met the needs of our family of six adults. All our needs for space and amenities were met.

This apartment and host deserve more than an 10/10! We have stayed in many VRBOs and this has been the best experience we have ever had! The location of the apartment, the exceptional host, the cleanliness of the apartment- made this trip so special! We had a family of 6 staying here and we had plenty of space for all of us. Maria arranged all of our transportation and that was so helpful for our vacation. They always arrived on time and the price was told to us before we ever even left for our vacation. Thank you so much Maria for allowing us to stay and for your amazing hospitality! We would love to come back soon!

Great location

Great apartment and Maria and her daughter were extremely accommodating. Rome was extremely hot in August but the air conditioning in the home was great so it didn't bother us at night. Walking distance to the Vatican with a number of good restaurants near by as well as a large taxi stand close by. Highly recommend and would stay here again.

Beautiful spacious, great location!

We so enjoyed our stay in Rome and it was made all the better with such a beautiful apartment to stay in. The location was wonderful, the apartment was clean and spacious and the view of the Vatican could not be beat! It was very easy working with Maria and the orientation by Camilla was a warm welcome to Rome. We will definitely try to return in the future!

Wonderful Apartment

What a fabulous apartment in a great location! It is in such close proximity to The Vatican (and Museum), restaurants, shops and the taxi line is just across the street. The apartment itself is spacious and lovely with everything you could want - including air conditioning! And Maria and Camilla could not have been any nicer. This is a great place to stay in Rome, indeed.

Why they chose this property
