Viale del Colosseo

Location & what to see

Viale del Colosseo is located in the Monti district, one of the most authentic neighbourhoods in Rome’s historic centre, a stone’s throw from the great monuments of antiquity yet with the atmosphere of an urban village made up of small streets, artisan workshops and small venues. The area is particularly lively with restaurants and cafés: Ristorcaffe Vecchia Roma is just 20 metres away, while the Sa.Ni. Dolciaria pastry shop is 50 metres away, convenient for a quick breakfast before heading out to sightsee.

The property is about 700 metres from the Colosseum and 600 metres from the Domus Aurea, both easily reachable on foot in around ten minutes. San Giovanni metro station is about 700 metres away, while the Manzoni stop is 500 metres away: two useful connections for getting around the rest of the city without using a car. Those arriving by plane can rely on Ciampino Airport, 11 km away, or Fiumicino, further away at 20 km.

Nearby, the Arch of Constantine, about 900 metres away, and the Imperial Fora, 1.5 km away, are also within walking distance, ideal for a stroll among the imperial ruins during the cooler hours of the day, especially in summer. Piazza San Giovanni in Laterano, just 200 metres away, and the Palatine Hill, just over a kilometre away, complete a walking itinerary that lets you experience archaeological Rome without long trips, while in winter the same areas are suited to quieter, less crowded visits.

Colosseum — the amphitheatre symbol of Rome, reachable on foot in a few minutes 700 m

Domus Aurea — Nero's imperial residence with well-preserved ancient frescoes 600 m

Arch of Constantine — Roman triumphal monument near the Colosseum, a classic photo stop 900 m
