Description Eternal Views: Roma

With one of the best views of Rome we’ve seen from a private rooftop terrace, it’s no surprise this central penthouse caught our eye. Housed in a 19th-century property and arranged over two floors, this home has been expertly reimagined into a contemporary, practical space. There’s a made-for-action family kitchen and a second kitchenette opening onto the terrace – handy for rustling up aperitivos. Meanwhile, each bedroom has a separate bathroom for a little extra privacy and a desk space for remote working. Tucked into the historic Jewish quarter, you’re less than a ten-minute stroll from landmarks like Campo de' Fiori and Pantheon, and trattorias for a taste of Romana even closer.

Home truths:
*If you’re travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair. You’ll need to request these in advance.
*Though there is a lift to access the penthouse’s entrance, the apartment is set over two floors and has stairs, which may not be suitable for guests with restricted mobility.
