Monochromotherapy's position between the Piazza di Spagna and the banks of the River Tiber makes this home perfectly placed within the heart of the world's oldest city. Just a twelve-minute walk will have you at Rome's most beloved water feature, Trevi Fountain – from here, descend the Spanish Steps back to the famous square, only a five-minute stroll from your cosy home. Back inside, from the moment you enter you'll notice the black and white photographic wallpaper prints adorning the walls, that we really loved – there's a charming retro feel around the apartment. Plus, a pair of fancy bathrooms – complete with chromo-therapeutic rainfall showers to soak your aching tootsies after a day spent wandering this ancient part of the world. Enjoy mapping out your afternoon's tourist itinerary around the stylish dark wood dining table with a tipple of limoncello in hand. With so much to see and do around here, this pad offers just about everything needed for a sweet stay in the Italian capital.

Local guide
About Spagna
Spagna is, perhaps unsurprisingly, focussed around the eponymous Piazza di Spagna. Along with the Trevi fountain, it’s one of the most visited sights in the entire city. Things weren’t always so auspicious – in the 16th century, the area was Rome’s red light district, but today it’s better known for the vine-covered romance of Via Margutta, home to Gregory Peck's impoverished journalist in Roman Holiday. This is not the place...
