Description Roman Standard: Roma

Right on the edge of Campo Marzio, Roman Standard is in an enviable position among some of the smartest boutiques in Italy. It’s tucked under the eaves, so it’s worth noting that parts of the ceiling slope down and are therefore quite low. In the end though, this adds to the cosy feel of the whole place – there’s even a fireplace to keep you warm if you’re there during winter (it’s also there in summer, you’re just less likely to need it).

Home truths:

*The bins are at the bottom of the stairs, in the atrium to the building
*Some of the rooms are under the eaves so there are parts of the ceiling that are quite low
