Il Cherubino d'Oro

Il Cherubino d'Oro: Lazio

Not all opulent Roman apartments, however grand, are filled with genuine 16th, 17th and 18th-century paintings, furnishings and furniture that will transport you back in time. But at this home, lavishly frescoed Renaissance ceilings and an impressive marbled entrance hall not only feel aristocratic but are authentically historic. While you’ll benefit from modern air conditioning, heating and other top-notch appliances, you’ll feel like pure royalty in this luxuriously designed home in the heart of Rome. The bedrooms feature cherub frescos and intricate hand-painted headboards, perfect for dreamy nights of sleep, while a private terrace really is the icing on the cake – watch the sun go down over the terracotta roofs of Rome drinking your aperitivo in peace. The location also couldn't be more central. Just two minutes from Piazza Navona, you can walk pretty much everywhere from here – the Pantheon is seven minutes away, the Trevi Fountain is just fifteen minutes and Ponte Sisto is ten minutes away. You'll leave, totally pampered by your stay, knowing the streets of Rome like the back of your hand.
