Rent holiday home Penthouse Panoramic terrace, historic center Rome

The penthouse is distributed in 2 bedrooms, one with a double bed and a bathroom, the other is a living room with a kitchenette and a sofa bed. All around there is a panoramic terrace overlooking Rome. It is possible to eat outside with the barbecue. On the terrace there are play equipment for children and adults, such as table football. Outside there is a sink and a shower. Hammocks and sun beds are offered for sunbathing.


Ideal for those who want to spend an unforgettable stay one step away from all the beauties of Rome.

The apartment is distributed over two bedrooms, one with a bathroom and a living room with kitchenette, the sofa bed, is comfortable and spacious. In the center a large entrance allows you to have breakfast. All around, it is surrounded by a revolving terrace and offers a view from the Castelli Romani to Montemario, passing through views of the beauty of Roman roofs.

An impeccable panorama of the eternal city will leave you breathless.

The penthouse is located and just a few minutes walk from the Basilica of San Giovanni and the Scala Santa. Colosseum, Roman Forum, Piazza Venezia, are very close.

The neighborhood is very central, offering a very commercial street like the new Via Appia, and excellent connections to the historic center. There are many restaurants of various ethnic groups, pubs, pharmacies, cinemas and anything else you need. A grocery is just below the ground floor of the building.
San Giovanni is one of the most populated districts of Rome, characterized by the Lateran Palace and the famous Basilica of San Giovanni in Laterano.
Area known throughout Italy because in the main square in front of the basilica, every first May, the famous concert is held, which sees on the stage a large number of Italian and foreign musical groups.
Next to the basilica is the Scala Santa, which according to tradition is composed of the 28 steps that would be those traveled by Jesus to go to Pontius Pilate. On the top of the staircase is the chapel called Sancta Sanctorum which houses some of the most important Christian relics.


Connections with stations and airports are excellent, as well as subways and buses.
Upon your arrival you will be asked for 200 euros security deposit, the municipal tourist tax and final cleaning

A fantastic place to stay
This is a gem of a VRBO! On the top of the building private courtyard and space has 360 degrees view of Rome. With easy access to all the sights and places to visit this makes for an ideal location. Elizabetta makes it easy with recommendations to eat, and there are some amazing restaurants, and is the perfect host. We would have given 10 stars is we could have!

Stunning views of the city!
The location of this home is absolutely breathtaking! It is located on the 10th floor and is the penthouse suite. You have an enormous wrap around patio that gives you full views of every part of Rome. Elisabetta was very thorough in explaining the home, and great with quick communication. The home was exactly as advertised, very functional and clean. We 100% would rent this home again and would recommend to all our friends and family! Thank you!

Nice but, Deceptive and Incomplete Description
The listing stated a hot tub was included on the roof deck when in fact, there was not. The owner looked puzzled when I asked after a long trip and a day of high summer temperatures. She then said, “the picine? and went to a closet and pulled out two 6’0” diameter kiddie pools and decided to fill one with a hose. She left and asked me to shut the hose off when it was full. I really couldn’t believe it. The pool leaked and in 5 hours was empty. It also should be noted that after ascending 9 floors by elevator, you have to travel up another flight of stairs to get to the penthouse on the 10th floor. An additional city room tax of $20.00 was requested by the owner that I paid via PayPal. These issues, in my view, constituted deceptive or incomplete advertising.

Great little Flat in a non-touristy part of town. We stayed here for three day in July, the location was perfect for us, a quick train ride from all the madness of Rome yet close enough to be in the middle of it all. Host is a great communicator.

Had a great experience staying here. The host was so sweet and even got us laundry detergent. The location is outside of the center but still close enough to easily get to various locations. If taking a cab, roughly 20 min from all major tourist stops.

Very nice apartment and view from roof
This apartment is very spacious, well furnished, comfortable, and clean. Our host, Elisabetta, had great communication with us. It is located about a 7 or 8 minute walk to the metro and 4 or 5 minutes from the train station. The view from the rooftop is incredible, but it is not in very nice condition. It wasn't very clean and there was no umbrella. The vegatation from the rooftop planters did not match the pictures (we visited in early June). For us, it didn't create the atmosphere where you wanted to sit and have a drink as we anticipated based upon the photos. We also didn't have water pressure until the afternoon prior to our departure, so we had to take a very cold "camp style shower" for the first three days at the property (the small dribble of water was cold and I assume it was because it didn't accumlate enough water pressure for the water heater to heat the water). It was explained to us this impacted all of the local neighborhood. Elisabetta was in constant communicaition with us trying to resolve the issue and ultimately hired a local plumber to create a temporary solution for us, so we didn't allow this to have a significant impact on our rating. From the beginning, Elisabetta was up front when we checked in and left us 6 large bottles of water and a very lovely bottle of wine. Despite the challenges from the water pressure we enjoyed our stay and the surrounding area.

Rome Getaway
This was a great property away from the busy tourist area. It was close to the train station for traveling into the heart of Rome for sight seeing. The property was clean, and a great place to relax after a long day of walking the city. The neighborhood was safe with excellent restaurants in walking distance and a grocery store around the corner. Thank you for a great stay. Highly recommend!

Wonderful experience
My wife and I spent her 70th birthday in Rome. Our place was everything described. Clean, well equipped for cooking breakfast (or other meals had we chosen). Elizabetta met us and gave an overview of the place (even a bottle of wine awaited us). She had great suggestions as where to eat and explained the metro. Entire place was renovated and nicer than most vrbos weve stayed at. Metro and trains only couple blocks away. Elisabetta was open to us staying a bit longer since our train wasnt until noon. We both recommend her place and should we ever return to Rome we would consider staying there again.

Great location, we thoroughly enjoyed the local restaurants and being out of the crazy tourist area. Host was incredible. Although we really werent there long enough to enjoy the roof top terrace view, that 360 degree view of Rome is amazing. Great place and if we are ever in Rome again, we will stay here.

Rome sightseeing
Site was great, property manager was available and quite pleasant. Had great recommendations on restaurants. It was a little far from Rome sightseeing within the walls. But it was very close to train station and once we figured it out it was very easy getting around. We enjoyed the rooftop for New Years day celebration and fireworks.

Loved the Terrace
The apartment is very clean, quiet, and in a secure location (gated complex and keyed building door). Although we were very happy with the location, it is pretty far from the typical tourist locales, making it necessary to use the often crowded metro system. Importantly, the bed was very comfortable. I will recommend this rental to others who plan to travel to Rome.

A nice clean penthouse apartment with a personal roof and great views of Rome. All appliances including A/C worked fine. The only drawback is location: a bit far from city center but that's not a big deal. Still worth 5 stars, a good value.
