Your first morning
Start with Trevi.
Then simply walk.
Go out early, while the fountain is still waking up. From the apartment, the historic centre unfolds around you — Quirinale, Via del Corso, the Spanish Steps and Pantheon are all within walking distance.

Your neighbourhood
Stay in Trevi.
Find your own rhythm.
Trevi is a central starting point for exploring Rome on foot. The streets around the fountain can be busy; the apartment’s windows face the palazzo’s internal courtyard, with a private patio for a quieter pause.
An early start
A morning on foot.
Begin at Trevi Fountain, then follow your curiosity towards Via del Corso and the Spanish Steps. For another walk, make your way to the Pantheon and stop at a traditional forno along the route.
Walking times & directionsBeyond the obvious
Make room for Colonna.
Palazzo Colonna deserves a place in your plans. Check the official visiting arrangements, then combine it with a walk around the Quirinale neighbourhood.
Plan your visitBack at home
A pause between walks.
Return for a coffee on the shaded patio or prepare a meal in your own kitchen. When you want to explore farther, Barberini Metro A is approximately a seven-minute walk away.
Discover the apartmentA gem in the neighbourhood
Don’t overlook
Palazzo Colonna.
It is easy to walk past one of Rome’s extraordinary interiors. A short walk from the apartment, Palazzo Colonna reveals a magnificent Baroque gallery, frescoed rooms and an exceptional art collection. Make room for it in your itinerary.
Public visits take place on Friday and Saturday mornings. Check the official website for reservations, entrance arrangements and current tickets before going.
Saturday visitor entrance: Via della Pilotta 17, Rome. Check your reservation for the entrance used for your visit.
Eat like a local
Follow your Roman appetite.
Part of travelling is discovering flavours rooted in the place you have come to see: warm pizza bianca from a forno, crisp Roman pizza, or a plate of pasta that tells the city’s story in a few ingredients.
A little Roman food vocabulary.
A traditional forno is a bakery and often an everyday lunch stop. Pizza al taglio is pizza sold in slices, usually by weight. Round Roman pizza is thin and crisp — scrocchiarella — while Neapolitan pizza is softer, with a raised airy rim.
