Azteca Apartment

Azteca Apartment can be found between the Spanish Steps and Trevi Fountain, nestled in the heart of central Rome, the capital city of Italy. The apartment is just fourteen kilometres from Rome's international Ciampino Airport, which can be reached either by taxi or a direct train ride. The central Roma Termini train station is five minutes to Spagna, the nearest metro station; hop into a cab, or pre-book a transfer with the concierge team. There is something for everyone to enjoy when you holiday in Rome - whether it's ancient history, architecture, renaissance art, culture, food, shopping, and fashion, or the simple joy of people watching, the Eternal City has got a lot.

Step outside the apartment, and within a short distance, you are sipping cappuccinos in the bustling square of Piazza Barberini; make a wish at the famous sculpted marble Trevi fountain, then take a walk to the impressive Spanish steps. Everywhere you go, there are ornate churches, rich with decorative icons, don't miss a visit to Santissima Trinita dei Monti, a Roman Catholic late Renaissance church perched above the Spanish Steps. Soak up the history of the city at The Pantheon, the Roman Forum, and the ancient Colosseum, all within walking distance.

No visit to Rome is complete without a meander through the Vatican Museum art collection to see Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling, the double helix staircase, and the stunning views from the rooftop terraces before a visit to the Basilica of St Peter. For some fine art, go to the nearby Borghese Gallery, set in a gorgeous garden, housing an incredible collection of Canova marble sculptures. On the stroll back, stop at Harry's Bar for a Bellini, then walk down the Spanish steps and visit the Romantic poet Keat's house before enjoying English muffins at the famous Babington's Tea Rooms, which has been there since 1893.

Saunter down the oh-so-very fabulous Via dei Condotti and window shop for world-famous designer-label fashion and exquisite hand-crafted leather handbags. Go to the outskirts of the city and cross the Old Appian Way to discover the hidden treasures of the catacombs. If you fancy a day trip out of Rome, the pretty town of Tivoli is only thirty kilometres away, where you can visit Hadrian's Villa and the exquisite Villa D'Este.

During the day, dine on freshly made pasta, pizza, and homemade ice cream, eat alfresco in one of the many squares, and sit back and watch as the world and the beautiful people pass by. In the evening, make your way to the foodie heaven of Trastevere, and taste the delights of traditional Italian cooking, just like Nonna used to make, in one of its many taverna-style restaurants.
