The best way to experience Italy's famous lifestyle is to live there, no matter how short (or long) your stay. If you're interested in experiencing la dolce vita first hand, it's easy to find suitable short stay Rome apartments.
Commonly furnished with any number of amenities from satellite television to air conditioning, Rome apartments range in size from small studio flat to spacious five bedroom apartment. Linens are usually included in the rental rates, which can cost anywhere from €90 per night to over €200 per night.
The city's Tourist Information Board aids visitors looking to rent a holiday apartment by listing available rentals online at www.romaturismo.com, the majority of which are privately owned.
Rental Area overview
The most important part of renting a Rome apartment is choosing where in the city you plan to be. Certain areas around the popular tourist sites are expensive, though they afford easy access to all Rome has to offer. Here is a quick overview to the different areas of Rome :
Holiday apartments in the areas of Repubblica and Marsala are located around Stazione Termini; a busy, traffic filled area frequented by tourists and populated by overpriced restaurants. However, those travelling a bit outside the city will find the easy access to public transportation beneficial.
The areas around the Colosso Foro Romano, Navona, Piazza di Spagna, Pantheon, Via Veneto shopping area and Trevi are located in the heart of Rome within a few minutes walk of all the city's major sites and attractions. The great proximity comes at a cost; apartments and area restaurants can be more expensive.
The Vatican lies west of the Tiber River and the surrounding area is popular with tourists looking to visit the seat of Catholicism. Apartments here are typically small and expensive.
San Lorenzo, Esquiliano, San Giovanni and Aventino Testaccio border the city centre along the east and southeast side; these neighbourhoods are calmer than those directly in the city but remain aware that rates increase along with proximity to the Basilica di San Giovanni.
Best of Rome
Villa Borghese and Trieste border Rome to the north; these pleasant neighbourhoods are quieter than those situated directly in the city. Though reaching the city centre requires a 20 to 30 minute walk or a short Metro ride, the added distance from the city's major sites allow better prices for lodging and dining.
Trastevere is a beautiful neighbourhood of winding streets and hanging laundry located southwest of the city centre across the Tiber River. Providing easy access on foot to the Vatican and Piazza Navona, Trastevere is an area well appreciated by locals as it is filled with good restaurants and popular wine bars.
For more information, visit the Board at No 11 Via Parigi off Piazza Esedra near Stazione Termini or call +39 06 488 991. The Board is open from 9 AM to 7 PM Monday to Saturday.
