Campo de Fiori apartment rentals Vacation rentals in Rome

Beautifully remodeled while maintaing its rich history, Balestra is one of our most unique apartments, echoing as much romance as Rome itself. A furnished studio located on historic Via Giulia in the heart of Rome, it combines the right amount of intimacy and comfort with peace and quiet seldom found elsewhere in the city.

Recent restructuring has revealed the original wood beamed ceiling and a lovely ancient brick arch. A wonderful characteristic of Balestra is the private museum in the floor. While remodeling, the remains of at least 3 ancient dwellings were found beneath the apartment along with a collection of fascinating artifacts. Rather than destroy these findings in the name of progress, the owner instead built a glass tile into the floor with a little light, so that all guests can enjoy Roman history inside the apartment itself. On the ground floor facing a cozy characteristic courtyard with a stone wash-tub, the silence and history surrounding via Giulia seem surreal as you walk to colorfully hectic Campo De Fiori, or cross over to lively Trastevere.
