See & Do
See & Do
With its old winding streets and ancient markets, Trastevere has retained much of its pre 19th century character. Talk a walk through this historic part of town to know exactly what old Rome is about. The Vatican is about 20 minutes away and you certainly shouldn’t miss it. Take a boat ride along the Tiber to reach the Sistine chapel, with its wondrous Renaissance ceilings. Join a guided tour of the Coliseum and hear what it meant to be a gladiator, or simply sit at the top of the Spanish Steps with an icecream. The hotel provides free bicycles for those happy to brave the streets with a slight wobble.
Spa
You can book a Shiatsu massage in your room – perfect for soothing away any bruises inflicted by bustling tourists.
