Colonna Heights certainly has the wow-factor. Right on the corner of Rome's main drag, Via del Corso, this triplex apartment's crown jewel is the rooftop terrace, which boasts 360º views of the city, as well as a dining table, sofas and a barbecue. Inside, the décor is unique, although it is distinct enough that it might not be to everyone’s taste. You should be prepared for stairs, some of which are quite steep, but if you can reach the top, the reward is worth it. *Both bedrooms and the study are under the eaves, which could be a problem for taller people *The apartment is set out over three floors, so there'll be a lot of stair-climbing *Guests 5, 6, 7 and 8 would all be on sofa beds and futons in the communal areas Air Conditioning Balcony Barbeque Bathrobes Bathtub Black-Out Blinds Buzzer / Wireless Intercom Central Heating Dishwasher Electricity Adaptors Fireplace Freezer Fri...

This unique home is ideal for large groups. It’s a whole building divided into four separate apartments, so up to eighteen guests can stay together while also having their own space – though four guests will be sleeping on sofa beds.

Experience the Eternal City in the lap of luxury in this stunning palazzo, right in the heart of Rome's historic centre. Built in the early 16th century, esteemed Renaissance artist Giorgio Vasari considered this address one of the finest palaces in the city. Every inch of this breathtaking home has been painstakingly maintained, renovated, and in some cases, enhanced to create an opulent setting that celebrates its storied history and updates it for modern living. The vast living room is the jewel in the crown. Here, play billiards beneath museum-grade frescoes painted by many of the Baroque era's most famous artists, with eye-catching contemporary pieces adorning the walls and elegant furnishings sitting seamlessly alongside ornate original features.

A mere five minutes' walk from Campidoglio and Piazza Venezia, the prime position of this Rome home is incredible, but perhaps what's more impressive is that despite the central location, guests here get the run of an expansive palazzo that wouldn't look out of place in the Italian countryside. Spread across three levels, you're actually looking at two independent apartments stacked on top of the other, although it's perfectly easy to share these spaces if you're coming in a large group. The first is on the ground floor, where you'll find high ceilings, a large dining room and a pair of wooden doors that lead out to an equally spacious terrace complete with plenty of shady seating. The next two levels above this comprise the second apartment. The same contemporary approach to design has been embraced, but there are a couple of standout features up here — namely the Jacuzzi and sauna in the master bedroom that you have to h...
Everything about this palatial apartment clicks seamlessly into place. It’s luxurious, opulent even (how else do you describe the marble columns?), but retains a certain grace – a lightness that stops it from feeling over the top. That’s quite an achievement in a place with ceiling frescoes, parquet flooring, and marble arches. While the living space has a real air of elegance, the bedrooms are more modern and stylish, with whitewashed walls, gold accented furnishings and tasteful artwork (plus their own individual coffee machines). Inhabiting the space between a hotel and an apartment, you'll find plenty of other thoughtful amenities during your stay – from a private chef, housekeeping, and 24/7 concierge. Take your breakfast outside, prepared and served by the staff on your rooftop terrace, offering skyline views over the Eternal City. Beckoning you to explore, walk sixteen minutes and find yourself at one of the seven wonders of the ...

In stunning condition, the apartment hasn't aged at all and invites guests into a time capsule filled with spectacular artworks, antique furniture and original features that are usually only reserved these days for royal palaces and museums alike.

We like being in the thick of things on a city break, so this Roman home immediately caught our eye.

Before we even arrived at Soft Shading, we were struck by the location. It’s so close to the Trevi fountain that the only danger is you’ll end up stuck among all the tourists. It’s very new inside, and the modern fittings contrast nicely with some of the original structural features, like the ceilings. The only drawback is the slightly inadequate living room, upstairs, and without space for a full house, but as it’s right in the middle of the city, you won’t be spending much time in. *There's no real living room, certainly not one that can hold nine people *The dining table is only big enough for four people *The shower in the third bedroom is only 190cm high – tall guests might have to duck a little *One guest will have to sleep on a sofa bed *There are a total of 17 steps from the street level to the actual entrance of the property Air Conditioning Black-Out Blinds Breakfast Included Buzzer / Wirele...
Fendi are one of the great design families in the world, so you can imagine how excited we were to test Mirror Sand. It’s inside the new Alda Fendi Foundation, designed by the superstar architect Jean Nouvel, and right next to the Roman Forums. It works similarly to a hotel, the apartment is geared towards the independence that you get with a proper living room and kitchen. We also liked the ridiculously deep bathtub – it’s a wonderful place to relax after a day in the bustle of Rome. You’ll never want to get out. *If you want a style that's classically Roman, the industrial touches might be a bit much *As this is a serviced apartment, if you're after the feeling of a lived-in home, you won't find it here *Your host owns multiple apartments within this building, so the exact view, furnishings and layout might differ from the photos, but the size and standard will be the same *Only the most basic ingredients are provide...
Ideal for couples, this cosy apartment is a comfortable base in the heart of Rome. Its central location affords views of historic landmarks including the Piazza del Teatro di Pompeo and Palazzo Farnese. You’ll be just a short stroll from iconic sights including the Pantheon, and will have plenty of restaurants, boutiques, and museums on your doorstep. This apartment can accommodate three guests, with one sleeping on a Murphy bed in the living space. The interior designer has created a system of sliding doors to keep the single bedroom separate from the rest of the living room without ruining the largeness of the room permanently - however if you’re hoping for more space and complete privacy, we’d stick to a guest count of two. There is an additional mid-stay cleaning fee to pay for longer stays here. Air Conditioning Black-Out Blinds Carbon Monoxide Detector Central Heating Cleaning Products Coffee Maker Cook...
Set right in the heart of Rome’s historic centre and housed in an ancient palazzo of high and mighty proportions, this place feels more like an Italian residence than a city bolthole – and we couldn’t love it more. Spread out over three floors and exquisitely designed throughout, the designers have taken the best of the period architecture (would you look at those gabled ceilings in the main bedroom suite complete with a private terrace) while bringing the rest of the home elegantly into the 21st Century. Sunny mornings call for lazy breakfasts on the rooftop terrace – the home’s hidden gem. Cradled by the crumbling ochre facades, it couldn’t feel more Italian. And if you’re impressed with the view now, wait until dusk when the cupolas of the city’s churches light up. It’s the perfect spot for aperitifs – and the well-stocked honesty bar will come in handy for those. Keep on top of fitness with the indoor spin ...

The contrast between the old structure, with its plaster and ceiling beams, and the Koons-esque furniture in Mirror Sky is striking, even more so in the flesh than on a screen. It’s a bold move, but no less than you’d expect from a flat in the Alda Fendi Foundation. Rather than a traditionally autonomous apartment, here you get the benefits you’d normally associate with a five-star hotel, without losing any independence. There’s a 24/7 reception, a roof terrace, daily cleaning, even the option to choose the pillow best suited to you from a ‘menu’. *As this is a serviced apartment, if you're after the feeling of a lived-in home, you won't find it here *Your host owns multiple apartments within this building, so the exact view, furnishings and layout might differ from the photos, but the size and standard will be the same *Be prepared to stock the kitchen yourself, there aren't many ingredients provided *The design is ve...

Just a few steps away from the hive of activity that is the Campo de’ Fiori square and its market lies Starry Eyes, a spread-out apartment with ample space for large groups of friends and friends. Brightly lit, the tall windows overlooking Corso Vittorio Emanuele and Piazza San Pantaleo let in plenty of light throughout the day and fill the space with fresh air. Step out onto the corner balcony as you sip your morning coffee and watch the world go by. We particularly love the antique dining table – be sure to share an Italian feast of dreams when it comes to mealtimes. Despite the home's central location, you'll find peace and quiet here, making it the perfect escape to return to after a day of pizza-fuelled sightseeing. Having said that, you won't have to venture far to discover the treasures of Rome – as you'll be stationed just 500 metres away from Piazza Navona and 600 metres away from the Pantheon. *You may experi...

Yes, foreigners can rent longer-stay accommodations in Rome. Italy does not typically impose strict restrictions on foreigners renting properties for longer periods, such as months or years. Whether you're a student, a professional, or a tourist planning an extended stay, there are various options available for renting apartments or houses in Rome.
Here are a few things to keep in mind when renting a longer-stay accommodation in Rome as a foreigner:
Documentation: Landlords may require certain documents from you, such as a valid passport or ID, proof of income or financial stability, and possibly a visa or residence permit if you're staying for an extended period.
Lease Agreements: Make sure to read and understand the terms of the lease agreement before signing. Rental contracts in Italy can vary in length and terms, so it's essential to clarify all details, including rent, utilities, and any additional charges or fees.
Deposit: Landlords often require a security deposit, typically equivalent to one or two months' rent. This deposit is refundable at the end of the lease, provided there are no damages to the property beyond normal wear and tear.
Rental Market: Rome has a competitive rental market, especially in popular neighborhoods and during peak seasons. It's advisable to start your search early and consider enlisting the help of local real estate agents or online rental platforms to find suitable accommodation.
Communication: While Italian is the primary language spoken in Rome, many landlords and property managers may speak English, especially in areas with a high concentration of expats and tourists. However, having some knowledge of Italian can be helpful during your search and when communicating with landlords.
Overall, renting longer-stay accommodations in Rome as a foreigner is generally feasible and straightforward, as long as you follow the necessary procedures and requirements.
Rome is home to several options for student housing, ranging from university dormitories to private rentals and shared apartments. Here are some of the best student housing options in Rome:
University Housing: Many universities in Rome offer on-campus or affiliated housing options for students. These accommodations are often convenient and affordable, with facilities such as shared kitchens, common areas, and study spaces. Check with your university's housing office for availability and application procedures.
Private Student Residences: There are private student residences in Rome that cater specifically to students' needs, offering furnished rooms or apartments with amenities such as internet access, laundry facilities, and communal areas. While these options may be more expensive than university housing, they often provide a more comfortable and independent living environment.
Shared Apartments: Renting a room in a shared apartment is a popular choice among students in Rome. Websites and platforms like Uniplaces, Spotahome, and Idealista can help you find listings for shared apartments with other students or young professionals. Sharing an apartment allows you to split the rent and living expenses, making it a more budget-friendly option.
Homestays: Living with a host family can provide a unique cultural experience and help improve your language skills if you're studying Italian. There are agencies and websites that facilitate homestay arrangements in Rome, where you can live with a local family and participate in their daily life.
Temporary Accommodation: If you're still in the process of finding more permanent housing, you can consider staying in temporary accommodation options such as hostels, guesthouses, or short-term rentals. This can give you some time to settle in and explore different neighborhoods before committing to a long-term lease.
When choosing student housing in Rome, consider factors such as location, budget, amenities, and proximity to your university or college. It's also a good idea to start your search early, especially during peak seasons when housing options may be in high demand.
