This beautiful apartment is situated on the first floor (piano nobile) of a very prestigious palazzo at the end of Via dei Coronari, a pedestrianized street in the heart of old Rome, famous for its antique shops and galleries. The location is ideal for exploring Rome on foot, being close to the Piazza Navona, the lively Campo dei Fiori, with its fruit and vegetable market, and the Castel Sant Angelo. It is also within an easy walk of the Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain and Piazza del Popolo. The swimming pool erected for the summer months along the Tiber River is just a four minute walk from the apartment – perfect for an early morning swim and a spectacular view of St Peter’s Dome.
The 17th century palazzo was originally built by an aristocratic banking family associated with the Medici Pope and has now been carefully restored to its original Renaissance splendour. The apartment can be accessed via three flights of stairs, or a lift, to the first floor. The spacious rooms are elegantly furnished with art and antiques. Impressive features include the original panelled ceilings, beautifully painted and preserved, and the original, polished terracotta floors. The master bedroom has a king-sized bed, fine fabrics, luxury linens and full bathroom with shower. The second bedroom has two levels, one with queen-size bed on the main level and two charming twin beds with draped coronas on the second level. There is a second full bathroom with bathtub. The living areas consist of a sitting room, dining room and study, and there is a small, but well equipped, kitchen. There is also a TV, DVD player and wi-fi internet access.
For those looking for a more creative holiday, the owner has workshops throughout the year, teaching collage and decoupage on glass. She can also arrange for one day cooking courses for interested parties. Please contact us for more details.
