Relais La Fornarina 2 is located on Via Garibaldi, in the heart of Trastevere, one of Rome’s most characteristic neighborhoods, made up of cobbled alleys, colorful facades and a nightlife that comes alive especially in the evening among bars and trattorias. Just a few steps away, about 50 meters, is the Passeggiata del Gianicolo, while Villa Farnesina and Piazza Trilussa can be reached in 2-3 minutes on foot, and Piazza di Santa Maria in Trastevere, the beating heart of the neighborhood, is about 300 meters away.
Heading toward the historic center, Campo de’ Fiori is about 600 meters away and the Fori Imperiali 1.4 km, both comfortably reachable on foot in 15-20 minutes. Roma San Pietro railway station is 1.2 km away, while the Circo Massimo metro stop is about 1.9 km away.

From here it’s easy to organize walks toward the Gianicolo for a view over the city, visits to Villa Farnesina, or days dedicated to the great classics of imperial Rome, from Largo di Torre Argentina to Piazza Navona, both less than a kilometer away.
