Hotel San Anselmo

Lush and seductive hideaway on Rome‘s Aventine Hill

Here’s a Roman hideaway that’s close enough to the action but blissfully away from it all. Hotel San Anselmo sits on the Aventine Hill, in a quiet residential area of parks, graceful villas and trees.

Activities

See & Do
You’d need an eternity to scratch the surface of the Eternal city, so start with the classics (literally) like the ancient Forum, the soaring Coliseum and the Imperial Palace. Then there is awe-inspiring St Peter’s Basilica at the Vatican, the Spanish Steps – just the place to sit and idle away an hour – and the Trevi Fountain. (Better throw that coin in, to ensure you come back). The Pantheon is beautifully preserved, while wonderful squares for morning wanders include Campo de Fiori.
