Private room by an Italian family – A unique experience close to Colosseum, the Roman Forum and Basilica Saint Mary Major

Private room by an Italian family is a bed and breakfast in the Monti district of Rome, set in a historic building from 1895 just a short walk from the Colosseum and the Roman Forum.

The property offers a single quadruple room with private bathroom, designed for those seeking a stay with a family rather than a traditional hotel. The accommodation is air-conditioned, features a balcony and terrace with views over the city and the inner courtyard, and includes a shared kitchen with dishwasher, hob and coffee machine, convenient for guests who want to prepare something on their own. There is also a technology corner with a flat-screen TV, satellite channels, a Blu-ray player, a games console and a computer available to guests.

The location is one of the property’s main strengths: Cavour Metro Station is just 300 metres away, the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore and Termini Station are a few minutes’ walk, and the Colosseum can be reached with a walk of about 800 metres. The house is also home to a small dog and a cat, both described as very calm, which makes the environment suitable for animal lovers too.

Location & what to see

The property is located in the Monti district, one of the most authentic neighbourhoods in Rome’s historic centre, in a residential area full of bars, restaurants and small shops just steps from the bustling Via Cavour. The building housing the bed and breakfast dates back to 1895 and still retains the charm of old Roman houses, with high ceilings and views over the inner courtyards typical of the area.

Getting around is made easy by Cavour Metro Station, just 300 metres away, while Roma Termini Station, the city’s main railway hub, can be reached with a walk of about 600 metres. Rome Ciampino Airport is 12 km away, while Fiumicino Airport is about 20 km away. The Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore and the National Roman Museum are also just a few minutes’ walk away, at about 500 metres.

The Trevi Fountain, 1.1 km away, and Piazza di Spagna, 1.5 km away, are also within easy walking distance. The area is well suited both to a visit focused on the great archaeological sites of the centre and to a slower exploration of the streets of Monti, among evening venues and small art galleries, in every season of the year.
