Just a ten-minute walk from the Vatican Museums, this viable apartment works particularly well for larger groups of friends or family who value a bit more privacy than a standard flat might offer. The bedrooms are set up to be largely self-contained, with plenty of storage, and en-suite bathrooms all round. Each has its own look, although all three follow an industrial-style theme with artistic lighting and vibrant wallpaper prints – and for those keeping one eye on work during their stay, you'll find a well-designed desk space in each bedroom. There's a charming, mint-green kitchenette to whip up simple meals in and a quirky breakfast bar to map out the day's adventure. Speaking of, visit St. Peter's Basilica and the Vatican City, less than a half-hour walk from your front door. Surrounded by cheery cafés, alfresco bars and authentic restaurants, this is a glorious spot from which to experience Rome.
