Description Above Navona: Roma

Vivid floral walls make the main bedroom something you won't forget in a hurry, and the vaulted living space – with its dramatic spiral staircase – gives the whole apartment a sense of occasion that most city-centre rentals simply don't have. A rare private fitness room adds a practical touch in a location where space is precious. Step outside and you're four minutes from Piazza Navona, six from Campo de' Fiori, and nine from the Pantheon – with Ponte Sant'Angelo and Castel Sant'Angelo all close enough to weave into a morning stroll.

Home truths:
* The apartment spans three floors connected only by a spiral staircase, so you'll be using the stairs a lot during your stay. It isn't recommended for anyone with mobility issues.
* If you're travelling with a baby or toddler, a cot is already set up in one of the bedrooms – no need to request it separately.
* Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
