Where to stay

Sonder Trastevere
@biancamdiclaudio
Love the brand/hotel chain, I stay in their properties all the time. The standard is exceptional! Make the most of your stay with a cozy apartment featuring rustic beams and modern comforts. Boasting a prime location with seamless communication with property management, clean and contemporary apartments promise an ideal base for your Roman adventure. While the bustling neighborhood offers an array of major attractions, top-notch restaurants, and lively bars, the vibrant ambiance comes with a touch of liveliness. * I recommend it for couples looking to be near major attractions, and you may need to use a white noise machine (weekends;) Remember, these are Centuries-old buildings, so the walls tend to be thinner. Transport Links: Nearest bus stop 2 mins walk TaxisLocal taxi and rideshare services are available.
