Experiencing Rome on foot is a luxury, and our location offers you just that. We are ideally situated for visiting historic landmarks such as the Colosseum, the Aventine Hill and the Tiber Island, while also allowing you to immerse yourself in the authentic life of neighbourhoods such as Trastevere and Testaccio. Discover the events, traditions and entertainment that only the Porta Portese area can offer.
Staying with us means being just a stone's throw away from Trastevere and Testaccio, two neighbourhoods that embody the most authentic and vibrant soul of Rome.
Trastevere, with its cobbled streets and lively squares, is the perfect place to lose yourself among traditional taverns and artisan shops, transforming into the beating heart of Roman nightlife in the evening.
Just across the bridge, you will find Testaccio: historic, popular and now a reference point for authentic Roman cuisine. Here you can enjoy traditional Roman dishes and experience the city off the beaten track.
Our privileged location offers you immediate access to a ring of millennial history. Starting from Tiber Island, the only urban island on the Tiber, a short walk will take you to the Bocca della Verità (Mouth of Truth), in the portico of the church of Santa Maria in Cosmedin, where legend meets curiosity. The route continues towards the Circus Maximus, the ancient stadium for chariot races, until it embraces the magnificent Colosseum and the majestic Piazza Venezia. For a moment of tranquillity and beauty, we recommend climbing the Aventine Hill: among its splendid churches and hidden gardens, you can enjoy unforgettable views of the Eternal City.
Our area is not only steeped in history, but also buzzing with excitement and entertainment. If you happen to be here on a Sunday, don't miss a visit to the famous Porta Portese Market, Italy's largest and most traditional flea market, a vibrant place where you can find everything. During the summer, the proximity to the Tiber translates into the magic of the Roman Summer: the riverbank and Tiber Island come alive with evening markets, open-air venues and cinemas, creating a unique atmosphere. Finally, the Circus Maximus is transformed into the ideal stage for major concerts and events of international importance, offering music and excitement under the stars of Rome.
