A taste of our Rome Guide
Here are a few handpicked places from our complete guide, designed to make your stay in Rome special.
Il Gelato di San Crispino
A renowned artisanal gelateria near the Trevi Fountain, considered one of Rome’s classics. Focuses on pure, high-quality, seasonal flavours with no artificial additives. Famously serves only in cups (no cones) to maintain flavour integrity. Try their namesake honey ‘San Crispino’ flavour.
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.
Biblioteca Casanatense (Casanatense Library)
Another magnificent historic public library located near the Pantheon (adjacent to Santa Maria sopra Minerva church). Founded in the early 18th century, it holds important collections and features beautiful historic reading rooms. As with Biblioteca Angelica, it’s primarily for research; check visitor access policies on their official website.
Cinema Nuovo Sacher
Filmmaker Nanni Moretti’s iconic cinema located in Trastevere. It’s known for its high-quality programming, focusing on auteur cinema, independent films, and often showing movies in their original language (look for ‘V.O.’ – versione originale). Features an outdoor arena (‘arena estiva’) during the summer months.
Parco degli Acquedotti (Aqueduct Park)
Part of the larger Appian Way Regional Park (Parco Regionale dell’Appia Antica), this vast park is characterized by the impressive ruins of ancient Roman aqueducts stretching across the landscape, including the Aqua Felix and Aqua Claudia. Ideal for long walks, cycling, photography, and escaping the city.
Caffè Letterario
Located in the Ostiense district, often within a larger library/cultural center complex, Caffè Letterario serves as both a cafe/bar and a space for events. Hosts book presentations, readings, live music, and discussions in a relaxed atmosphere popular with students and locals. Check their schedule for events.
Gran Caffè la Caffettiera
An elegant, traditional Roman cafe located in the beautiful Piazza di Pietra, directly facing the ancient Temple of Hadrian. A classic spot for a quality coffee, cappuccino, pastry, or an aperitivo while enjoying the stunning view.
Il Seme Bookstore
An independent bookstore located in the Prati district. Often described by locals as having a well-curated selection, perhaps focusing on quality literature, essays, or specific genres. A good place to browse for a non-mainstream read.
Cinema Nuovo Olimpia
Located centrally on Via in Lucina (off Via del Corso), Nuovo Olimpia is well-known for primarily screening films in their original language with Italian subtitles (V.O.S.). A great option for seeing current international releases without dubbing.
Centrale Montemartini
A fascinating museum belonging to the Capitoline Museums system, located in the Ostiense district. It offers a unique juxtaposition of classical Roman sculptures displayed amongst the preserved industrial machinery of a former thermoelectric power plant. A striking blend of archaeology and industrial architecture.
Biblioteca dell’Orologio (Clock Tower Library)
A public library belonging to the Biblioteche di Roma network, located near Piazza della Chiesa Nuova and adjacent to Borromini’s famous Oratorio dei Filippini (which features a clock tower – ‘orologio’). Offers book lending, reading spaces, and potentially cultural events. Check website for opening hours and services.
Teatro Stanze Segrete
An intimate and experimental theatre space located in Trastevere, often housed in a basement or cellar-like venue (‘stanze segrete’ means secret rooms). Known for its ‘off-circuit’ productions, contemporary dramaturgy, and creating a close connection between performers and the audience. Check their schedule for current shows.
