Family friendly spacious apartment very central: art history shopping dining out | Apartment in Rome

Either you got a couple of days, a week or more with your family or friends this is an excellent choice, because its central location, the romantic atmosphere of an ancient building (1640), the high standards of provided services and the owner's 24/7 availability just in case.
There are few places in Rome that offer the zest, charm and charisma of Sant'Eustachio neighborhood. Via Monterone is a quite narrow street which is located in the lively epicentre of the capital, with packed-out cafes and restaurants never too far away, noteworthy for their diversity as well as their quality. Of course much of the typical atmosphere is down to the remarkably strong presence of boutiques, local shops together with well know International brands, making it a truly distinctive part of Rome, quite in the middle of the ancient Rome, at a walking distance from Pantheon, Coliseum, Piazza Navona, Spanish Steps, Campo dei Fiori, Vatican Museum and many more sites.
Palazzo Nari is a 17th century historical and prestigious building, your easy way to get acquainted with Rome, living as an Italian. This is a fully renovated, 172 square meters (1,850 ft²), self catered, spacious and luxurious apartment, elegantly furnished, on the 3rd floor with lift, parquet floors, coffered ceilings, and everything you need to enjoy your stay. Ideal for families and groups.
Beds configuration is pretty flexible as the apartment offers 4 bedrooms: 1 quadruple, 1 triple, 1 double and 1 small single one bedroom for sleeping 10 people maximum. An extra 11th folding bed can be added upon request for a kid only, upon request 1 week before your check in since its transportation needs to be arranged.
In detail the apartment bedrooms include:
- master bedroom with its ensuite bathroom: one California size double bed (180x215cm) plus one or two single beds (80x200cm); as an alternative one California size double bed (180x215cm) plus a standard double bed (160x200cm).
- 2nd double bedroom: one double (180x200cm) or two single beds (90x200cm);
- 3rd tiny single bedroom with its ensuite bathroom: one single bed (90x200cm);
- 4th triple bedroom: one double bed (180x200cm) with or without a third single bed (80x200cm); as an alternative three single beds. Exceptionally we can add a forth bed here but it is recommended for kids only, because the walking space would result limited.
At your convenience, a few days before arrival, you will be welcome to communicate your beds' setting preference.
The four bedrooms are served by 3 bathrooms, which include 3 showers and 1 tub bath. Hot water is available in quantity and strong pressure, since a double system fed by a gas heater and 3 independent electric boilers is in place, to make sure that you never run out of hot water. A state of the art softening and filtering system reduces the high concentration of calcium carbonate in the water avoiding the risk of dandruff of your hair and skin irritation after a shower and sparkling clean dishes and spot-free glasses from the dishwasher and better washing of your clothes from the washing machines.
The living room offers a flat screen smart TV with Int'l cable channels and bluetooth music loud speaker and radio. The dining room may seat up to 10 people. The live in kitchen has high end appliances, such as an induction plate with four zones for your safe cooking, ice maker, Nespresso machine, coffee maker toaster, electric kettle, blender, etc.. The laundry includes a dishwasher, 2 washing machines and a dryer.

The baby kit is available for kids upon request.
The owner is available for check in and out, while well trained housekeepers clean and sanitize the apartment before your arrival and maintenance specialists make sure that everything is perfectly running.

The apartment is situated very close to Piazza Navona and the Pantheon (at only 2 minutes walking distance), Campo dei Fiori (5 minutes walking distance), with Colosseum, Fori Imperiali and the Vatican at 10 min only. In the area there are many shops and boutiques, and it is very well connected by public transports such as bus (hope on hope off bus), tram, small electric bus, metro and taxi stops.
A supermarket opens daily and it's only 2 minutes away on the same street of the apartment, where a post office is also available next door. Around the corner is a luggage depot and airport delivery. The best coffee found in town is just 2 minutes away at Sant' Eustachio, while within 10 minutes walking there is choice of trattorias, restaurants, bistros and ice cream parlors (gelateria). A few minutes away is a lounge bar and club and many pubs.

The owner is available 24/7 in case of need. The area is extremely safe because it's 500 meters from the Parliament and patrolled 24/7 by police and carabinieri.
Regarding visits and touristic tours, the owner suggests planning them in advance to the most popular sites, such as S.Peter’ Church, Vatican Museum, Galleria Borghese, Coliseum, Foro Romano and Pantheon. You may either buy online tickets or even book an English speaking guide. In any case it is recommended online purchasing of what it's called “jump the line” tickets, in order to avoid long lines at the entrance, even 3-4 hours. In particular if you wish please plan in advance any visit to the Vatican Museum, Coliseum and Galleria Borghese, since these are extremely popular sites.
In addition you may also be interested looking at the website of the Roman National Museum which is the largest archaelogical museum complex in Rome and consists of four different museum locations: Palazzo Massimo, Palazzo Altemps, Diocleziano’s Baths, Crypta Balbi.

Day trips can also be arranged all year around to Florence (by train), to Pompei (train or car), to the sea side or to the lakes (by car).
Shopping rides by van sitting up to 8 people can be organized upon request. This may also include a personal shopping specialist upon request focusing on your wish list to be communicated in advance. The owner lived in this apartment as his parents and grand parents did many years ago. He knows very well the area and can assist any need you may have if it's communicated in advance.
