Ara di Marte Suites is a guest house in the Centro district of Rome, 500 metres from Piazza di Spagna and 700 metres from the Trevi Fountain. The property occupies a historic building in the heart of the city and is aimed at those who want to explore the main monuments on foot, without giving up the tranquillity of accommodation that is intimate and detail-oriented.
The rooms, from the classic Double Room to the options with balcony or panoramic terrace, are air-conditioned, soundproofed and equipped with a private bathroom with shower, coffee machine and flat-screen satellite TV. The larger suites add a living area, private kitchen and, in the case of the Two-Bedroom Suite, enough space for families or small groups.
Among the available services, the shuttle service, tour desk, organised walking tours and luggage storage stand out, useful for those visiting Rome with limited time. Breakfast, continental or Italian, completes the offering of a property that focuses on family warmth and proximity to the capital’s main attractions, from Piazza Navona to the Pantheon.

The neighbourhood is almost entirely pedestrian and is lively with cafés and traditional restaurants such as Sali e Tabacchi and Santovino, both just steps from the property’s entrance.
The location allows most of the main attractions to be reached on foot: Piazza Navona is 350 metres away, the Pantheon about 400 metres, the Trevi Fountain 500 metres and Piazza di Spagna 450 metres, with the Spanish Steps at the same distance. The Spagna metro station, on line A, is 650 metres away, while Flaminio station is about 1.1 km away. For those arriving by air, Ciampino Airport is 13 km away and Fiumicino Airport about 19 km.
Those staying here can spend their days exploring on foot the landmarks of baroque and imperial Rome: from Piazza Venezia and the Imperial Forums, about 750 metres and 1.3 km away respectively, to Castel Sant’Angelo, just under a kilometre. In the evening the neighbourhood comes alive with bars and small venues for an aperitivo, while on weekends Campo de’ Fiori, 900 metres away, hosts the traditional morning market. The area is well suited both to short stays focused on visiting the monuments and to longer stays thanks to the variety of shops and services in the immediate vicinity.
