Mario de’ Fiori 37

In a 17th-century townhouse, a block away from the Spanish Steps in the high fashion Tridente district, these seven stylishly cool suites are designed with Italian flair.

Run like an exclusive B&B, they offer a perfect base for shoppers, romantic couples looking for a cushy private bolt-hole, and tourists who don’t want to feel like tourists while staying within walking distance of the main sights.

Staying here is like having your own hip pied à terre in Rome’s most fashionable district.

The location is great for sightseers. It’s walking distance to Piazza Navona, the Vatican, Pantheon, Trevi Fountain and Rome’s other big-ticket attractions.
