Photos and Description of this Rome holiday apartment Fabulous private penthouse with terrace overlooking the Historic Center of Rome

Within the historic center, a stone’s throw from the Spanish Steps, this penthouse has one of the most magnificent views of Rome you will ever see. From North to South East, the view spans over 180 degrees from the gardens of Villa Borghese, to Villa Medici (now the French Academy) and its gardens, to the towers of the curch of Trinità dei Monti, the dome of St.Peter’s, the dome of the Pantheon, the Vittoriano monument, the presidential palace, and all the old roofs and domes that make Rome unforgettable. Sited at the edge of the Pincio hill, the building was built in the late 1880s and enjoys the luxury of facing only parks and gardens in the immediate vicinity, and beyond them the entire bowl of the historic center, all the way to the Gianicolo. The vast terrace planted with roses and jasmine, is a quiet oasis of privacy and stunning views. It's the perfect place to sip a cocktail while watching the sun set behind Michelangelo's Dome.

Further details for this holiday apartment rental in Rome, Italy

Building: The building has a beautiful classic entrance with doorman. An old wood-trimmed elevator goes up to the top floor. From there the door to the apartment leads to a small stair that takes you further up to the penthouse level. For convenience, a dumbwaiter was installed to carry suitcases and anything heavy from the top floor to the penthouse.

Apartment: The apartment has one bedroom, two bathrooms, a galley kitchen and a large living room with working fireplace. The living room has unobstructed views of Rome through floor to ceiling windows, and a huge terrace that essentially doubles the living space inside.

You will live on the amazing terrace...

SallyW Vancouver, Canada
Review Submitted: October 16, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
This place is GORGEOUS. The pictures do not even remotely do it justice.

The apartment is filled with everything you need: pretty plateware for your finds at the local market, and extremely helpful guidebook prepared by Alessandra with maps to everything nearby, and of course plenty of wineglasses for the local vino.

Once you step out onto the terrace, you will realize that this is THE best spot to be. The view is stunning, the noise is non-existent, and the pretty humming birds that stop by the sweet smelling flowers are all the entertainment needed.

Highly recommended. You will not be sorry you choose this property.

Luxurious retreat with amazing views…

Steffi & Thomas New York, NY
Review Submitted: October 12, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
My husband and I (and our 9 month old baby girl) had a wonderful time at this luxurious penthouse apartment. Besides the lovely bedroom with en-suite bath, ample storage space, and its own terrace; the gorgeous kitchen with mahogany cabinets and stainless steel appliances and everything and more you might need to prepare a gourmet meal; the stunning living room and the terrace are by far the best features of this apartment. All the windows in the living room give you the impression of being outside and the terrace seems to be an extension of the living area. There is ample comfy seating where one could just sit and relax, read a book or enjoy the view.
The view from the terrace is breathtaking. We enjoyed vistas of all of Rome while having breakfast outside and we absolutely loved to watch the sun set behind the dome of St Peter’s Basilica after a full day of sightseeing. This is clearly the best view of Rome you will ever see.
The neighborhood is very nice with great restaurants in walking distance (we tried some of the ones recommended by the owner and enjoyed traditional Italian cuisine in an authentic setting). The proximity to the grounds of Villa Borghese is a real plus and we enjoyed lovely walks in the beautiful landscaped park.
Overall the apartment offers everything guests might need to enjoy their stay and more. The interior with comfortable and beautiful furniture and the choice of materials and colors used make you feel right at home. We had an unforgettable time and are hoping to return before too long.

Penthouse with a view...

lizanne philadelphia, pa, usa
Review Submitted: June 13, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
My husband and I (& our 11 month old baby girl) recently spent 10 days at this magnificent penthouse apartment. The location is excellent, four blocks away from and about 100 feet above the Spanish Steps (which is a relatively high point for the heart of rome). The apartment is stylish, immaculate, and stocked with everything you might need during your stay. The owners are very detail oriented and have clearly put a lot of though into taking care of their guests' needs.

The apartment's interior was recently renovated (in fact, we were the first guests to stay after the renovation) and includes a modern, top quality kitchen (complete with microwave, dishwasher, clothes washer, french press and small & large stove top espresso makers), two bathrooms with tiled stall showers, and even a dumbwaiter that can assist you with your heavy grocery bags.

The master bedroom is spacious and bright. It has it's own private bath, a comfortable, king size bed (rare in Italy) and a great big closet with plenty of storage space.

As lovely and refined as the interior of this place is, it's finest feature is it's exterioir: the expansive terrace (the size of a large living room) overlooks the southern portion of the Borghese gardens, giving way to glorious views of all of Rome. Exotic birds fly by, including green parrots, merli (talented song birds) and small raptors. The flowering plants convey enchanting fragrances. There are numerous places to lounge with a good book, have a glass of wine, or just take it all in. Totally magical.

The upscale neighborhood is very safe. The streets are filled with Romans going about their daily business and does not feel the least bit touristy. The location offers many conveniences: a grocery store, a pharmacy, two metro stops and a few taxi stands are all within easy walking distance.

Each day we came back to this incredible perch, opened a great bottle of wine (when in Rome), and looked back over the city in which we spent the day walking, eating, and exploring. It was truly a fabulous place to stay.

Fabulous penthouse apt

HowardH Berkeley, Ca USA
Review Submitted: June 12, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
What an experience! We were literally at the top of
Rome with a enormous patio and panoramic view
sweeping from the Villa Borghese, below us, to the
Vatican and onto the Forum. The neighborhood is
high end and very close to the park (Villa Borghese).
The apt was carefully and thoughtfully designed.
It's light and airy. 800 sq/ft seemed much larger
than it actually is. The living room has sliding
windows and double glass doors onto the patio so
one's sense is of being outside. The galley kitchen
had every implement we needed- including heavy
gauge stainless steel pots and pans- and was easy
to work in. The two bathrooms are modern and
convenient, though there's no bath tub. The
cleaning service- twice a week- is an unexpected
luxury. In short, the owner put a lot of effort into
this apt to make it both a comfortable and first
class experience for her guests. It's hard to
imagine that renting a vacation apt in Rome gets
any better.
