Primo Piano Suites is a guest house housed in a historic building in the heart of Rome, just 50 metres from Piazza Navona and 400 metres from the Pantheon. The property occupies an upper floor accessible only by stairs, a detail that shapes its intimate and secluded atmosphere, typical of the palazzi in Rome’s historic centre.
The rooms, all with private bathroom, air conditioning, flat-screen TV and Nespresso coffee machine, differ in size and view: some overlook the city’s rooftops, others the quieter inner courtyard. A minibar and safe are present in most room types, while the triple room is designed for those travelling in three.
The location is probably the most evident strength, confirmed by a score of 9.9 given by guests: from here, Campo de’ Fiori, Castel Sant’Angelo and the Trevi Fountain are all within walking distance, while St. Peter’s Basilica is less than a kilometre away. It’s a fitting choice for those who want to experience ancient Rome without giving up modern conveniences such as free WiFi and shuttle service on request.
The five room types available at Primo Piano Suites share the same basic features: private bathroom with hairdryer, air conditioning, flat-screen TV, coffee machine and tea and coffee set, plus free WiFi throughout the property. The main differences lie in size, ranging from 15 to 21 square metres, and view, which can open onto the city’s rooftops or the quieter inner courtyard.
The Deluxe Double Room and the version with single beds offer the greatest flexibility in bed configuration, while the Superior adds an electric kettle and cable TV. Those travelling in three can rely on the Triple Room with City View, the largest in the range, while the Economy, while keeping all the essential comforts, stands out for its inner courtyard view and a more affordable price compared to the other options.
Room with city view, safe and a tea and coffee making set. The private bathroom is equipped with a hairdryer, while the decor aims for a bright atmosphere thanks to the urban outlook.
The only room type with a flexible bed configuration, suited to couples or those who prefer two separate beds. City view, safe and tea and coffee set complete the amenities.
Compared to the other doubles, this room adds an electric kettle and cable TV, plus a tea and coffee set and views over the rooftops of Rome from the window.

Primo Piano Suites offers free WiFi throughout the property and an airport shuttle service on request, useful for those arriving in Rome from Ciampino or Fiumicino. The property is entirely non-smoking and features air conditioning, a safe, luggage storage and a concierge service to organise sightseeing and getting around the city.
Nothing is missing in the rooms for day-to-day convenience: private bathroom with shower and hairdryer, coffee machine, electric kettle, refrigerator, wardrobe and dining table. The flat-screen TV with cable channels accompanies moments of relaxation after strolls through the historic centre.
For meals, the on-site coffee shop and the option of breakfast in the room make it easy to start the day comfortably before heading out to discover Piazza Navona and the surrounding alleys.
Primo Piano Suites is located on Via Giuseppe Zanardelli, a stone’s throw from Piazza Navona, in the heart of Rome’s historic centre. This is the area of cobbled alleys, Renaissance palazzi and pedestrian squares that characterise the neighbourhood between the Pantheon and Castel Sant’Angelo: a lively setting from morning to evening, with historic cafés such as Caffè della Pace and restaurants just steps from the entrance.
The property is just 50 metres from Piazza Navona and 400 metres from the Pantheon, while the Pantheon and Piazza della Rotonda can be reached in a few minutes on foot. Castel Sant’Angelo is about 500 metres away, Campo de’ Fiori 550 metres and the Trevi Fountain 850 metres. For those arriving by air, Ciampino Airport is about 13-15 km away and Fiumicino 18-25 km; the Spagna metro station is 1.2 km away. St. Peter’s Basilica is around 900 metres away, also an easy walk along the Tiber.
The location makes it possible to dedicate the stay mainly to cultural visits: museums, historic buildings such as Palazzo Braschi and archaeological sites can be reached without any means of transport. In spring and autumn, evening walks between Piazza Navona and Trastevere are particularly pleasant, while in summer it’s worth taking advantage of the morning hours to avoid the crowds at the main sights of the historic centre.
