A taste of our Rome Guide
Here are a few handpicked places from our complete guide, designed to make your stay in Rome special.
Sant’Eustachio Il Caffè
A historic coffee shop near the Pantheon, established in 1938. Famous for its patented ‘Gran Caffè Speciale’ – a unique espresso blend prepared with sugar added during the brewing process, resulting in a naturally sweet and frothy coffee. Enjoy it standing at the bar like a local for the authentic experience.
Via del Governo Vecchio
A charming, bustling street running parallel to Corso Vittorio Emanuele II near Piazza Navona. It’s famous for its many vintage clothing stores, quirky independent boutiques, used bookshops, artisan shops, and inviting bars and restaurants. Perfect for Browse, shopping, and soaking up the atmosphere.
Nuovo Cinema Aquila
Located in the heart of the vibrant Pigneto neighborhood, Nuovo Cinema Aquila focuses on independent, art-house, and quality mainstream films. Frequently screens movies in their original language (V.O. – Versione Originale). Check their schedule for current screenings.
Antico Forno Roscioli
Located in the Flaminio district, MAXXI is Italy’s national museum dedicated to contemporary creativity. Designed by renowned architect Zaha Hadid, the building itself is a stunning piece of modern architecture worth seeing. It hosts exhibitions of 21st-century art, architecture, design, and photography.
Casadante
A cafe/bistrot located in Piazza Dante (Esquilino district). Likely offers a cozy, perhaps home-like (‘casa’) atmosphere for coffee, pastries, lunch, or aperitivo. Situated on a large piazza.
Cinema Azzurro Scipioni
A historic art-house cinema (‘Cinema d’Essai’) in the Prati district, managed by filmmaker Silvano Agosti. Known for its unique and often retrospective programming, featuring classic films, auteur cinema, and Agosti’s own works in an intimate setting.
Via Giulia
An elegant and remarkably straight street in the historic center, running parallel to the Tiber river. Commissioned by Pope Julius II and designed by Bramante in the early 16th century, it’s lined with Renaissance palaces, antique shops, art galleries, and quiet courtyards. Look for the Farnese Arch, part of Michelangelo’s unfinished bridge project. Ideal for an atmospheric walk.
Necci dal 1924
A historic spot in the heart of the trendy Pigneto neighborhood, famous for being a haunt of filmmaker Pier Paolo Pasolini. Opened in 1924, it retains a retro charm combined with modern touches. Features a lovely outdoor garden/patio. Serves food all day, from breakfast and coffee to lunch, aperitivo, and dinner, often featuring revisited traditional dishes.
Gregory’s Jazz Club
An intimate and renowned jazz club located near the Spanish Steps, often considered one of the best in Rome. It regularly hosts talented Italian and international jazz musicians. There’s also a whisky bar and restaurant upstairs. Check their official schedule and book tickets in advance.
CSOA Forte Prenestino
Located in the Centocelle district, this is a large historic fort transformed into a CSOA (Self-managed Occupied Social Center). It’s a major hub for Rome’s underground and alternative culture, hosting concerts (punk, reggae, electronic, etc.), festivals (like Crack! Fumetti Dirompenti), markets, workshops, and political events. Check their website/social media for the specific event calendar.
Villa Mazzanti (Monte Mario Access)
This public park on Monte Mario serves as a primary access point to reach the top of Rome’s highest hill. While the villa itself may not be visitable, the park provides pathways leading to the ‘Zodiaco’ viewpoint, offering stunning panoramic vistas across Rome, including St. Peter’s Basilica.
Tuba Bookstore & Bar
Located in the lively Pigneto neighborhood, Tuba is more than just a bookshop. It’s a feminist and LGBTQ+ friendly space, focusing on gender studies, narrative, comics, and children’s literature. They also host events, readings, and have a bar area for coffee or aperitivo.
Great apartment and great location! All major sights are in 15-20 min walking distance. You have cafes, restaurants and shops (and a city spa 😉 within 100mtrs. The place is very central yet quiet, great for families . Gianluca is a great host and was very friendly, flexible and always reacted immediately. I hope to be back to this place and Rome in the future!

Gianluca’s place is a great location and a great space too! We enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back again.
Danielle
The apartment is beautiful. Martina was very easy to reach when there were questions.
The interior design is as described, very chic with a mix of modern and antique.
The location is key, it’s just between Pantheon and Piazza Navona and has a little cafe next door where you can have a coffee and pastry at the bar. A little convenient store is also next door and a bigger shop is just a block away.
It was a lovely stay in the apartment.
