The 49 most romantic places in Rome

We really enjoyed our time at Villa Borghese. We didn't go to the gallery or the lake, and we still had a great time just walking around. The best part was the park itself. It's full of amazing trees that are tall, old, and really beautiful. They give lots of nice shade, which makes it perfect for a relaxing walk, even on a warm day. The paths are wide and easy to follow, leading you through green lawns and pretty gardens. It's a quiet and calm place to take a break from the busy city. We just found a bench, sat down, and enjoyed the peaceful feeling. If you want a simple, nice escape in Rome, we definitely recommend coming here for a stroll.

We traveled to here twice from outside Rome. From Termini you can take bus bit can be crowded and also you can walk if you have time and ability. We explores the playground area both times. Playground is not large but has fun equipment and you can picnic on the grounds. Chairs for adults all around and large climbing structures with a slide. Playground outdoors is free to use. It is accessible with a stroller and next to the playground there is a cafe with accessible toilets which covers snacks and bathroom needs for little kids. Next to the playground you can do pony rides which cost seven euros cash. Then game machines and car course, you need to buy special coins with cash or card to play the machines. We also tried the mini movie theater with both kids. It was a long show but kids loves it. They had a snack booth for packages popcorn , candy and drinks. There is a fun train that rides around the park and also to the zoo. Then if you walk around the park you can find icecream or snack stands sparsely put. They rent out carriage bikes so you have to be careful when walking because people can go fast or avoid driving paths. Nature is lovely. If you need cash bring beforehand because ai had to walk out for 20 min or more outside to finally find an ATM available on a Sunday. A lot more to explore and nearby there is the Explora museum for kids.

Unexpected hidden gem on my Rome trip! Needed to kill a few hours and certainly did! You could spend hours exploring here. It's beautiful and vast and there's fun activities all around that you can choose to do!

Brief Summary and Disappointment from a Visit to Villa Borghese, Rome ​Villa Borghese is the largest and most famous public park in Rome, known as the city's "green lung" and the gateway to a beautiful garden (which contains the Borghese Gallery). ​Main Sources of Enjoyment: ​An Escape from the Hustle: The park is an excellent place to relax and escape the crowds and noise of the city center. ​Key Landmarks: The park contains the Terrazza del Pincio with its perfect view, the picturesque Temple of Aesculapius on the lake, various fountains, and opportunities to rent bikes or rowboats. ​The Common Disappointment (and Explanation): Disappointment often stems from the fact that: ​The Park Itself is Simple: Unlike many highly formal Italian gardens, most of Villa Borghese is designed as a large English-style park and does not feature manicured or "secret" elaborate landscaping around every corner. It is perceived by some visitors as "just a large park," which can feel too "prosaic." ​The Gallery is the Main Event: The true and monumental attraction in the area is the Borghese Gallery (Galleria Borghese), which requires booking tickets far in advance (sometimes months ahead!) and limits the visit to two hours. Visitors who failed to book a ticket in advance find themselves excluded from the main attraction and are left only with wandering the exterior park. ​In Conclusion: Villa Borghese offers a welcome break from the city. To avoid disappointment, you must book tickets for the Borghese Gallery well in advance. Without the Gallery, the park remains pleasant, tranquil, and photogenic, but it is not an extraordinary "must-see" destination on its own.

We happened on this and missed it. Looks like a beautiful gallery. Tickets were booking at least 2 weeks out. The gardens and park in front of it were lovely to walk through. On weekends there seemed to be lots of activities for families in the park. Can rent bikes etc there also.

Amazing park!! Entered through the popola piazza. We rented a motor-bicycle, since they had a drivers experience minimum to rent a golf kart. Went through the park with ease. Not very crowded when I visited (August, mid-morning). You can't access all areas with the Kart, and some areas were closed off but not shown in maps.

Very beautiful and big park for walking, relaxing, and many other options! Free entrance but we rent car with pedals to move and small boat to go around the lake! Nice experience,I suggest it!

Absolutely Magical — A Roman Must-See The Trevi Fountain is every bit as stunning as people say—maybe even more. The moment you turn the corner and see it, the whole scene feels like a movie. The sound of the water, the incredible sculptures, the glow of the marble… it’s pure Roman magic. Yes, it gets crowded, but the atmosphere is part of the charm. Everyone is excited, tossing coins and making little wishes. I threw my coin in too—because who doesn’t want to come back to Rome? If you want the best experience, visit early in the morning or late at night. In the evening, the fountain lights make it look even more beautiful, and the crowds are calmer. Perfect for photos and just taking in the moment. Whether you’re in Rome for a day or a week, the Trevi Fountain is a must. It’s one of those places that reminds you why people fall in love with this city.

Crowded as usual! Best time to visit is early morning. Free entry queue to walk up till the fountain and throwing the coin. The streets are cobbled and might be tough to take strollers but many can manage if you can push nicely. A lot of cafes and gelatos near by to enjoy and spend some time.

The Trevi Fountain absolutely exceeded my expectations. Its sheer size and detail are breathtaking, especially with the sound of rushing water echoing around the square. I joined everyone in tossing a coin for luck, it’s impossible not to. Even with the crowds, the atmosphere feels magical and unmistakably Roman.

Yes, it's beautiful, but unfortunately the chaos surrounding this place makes it much less attractive. There's so many people (like almost everywhere), it's impossible to relax and enjoy this beauty. The experience is more like: quick, let's try to make a picture and leave. While in Rome I went there several times and during several periods of the day and it was always packed. I even check the webcams once at 2am and there were still people there!

Absolutely beautiful, and obviously VERY busy hot-spot for tourists! The only thing that ruins it is rude, entitled influencer/ tourists that block the visit/ view for everyone else, selfishly taking photos and selfies for over 20 minutes. However, this doesn't detract from the stunning monument and it's attraction for Rome! You can queue (average 1-1.5 hours) to get closer to the fountain if you have time.

Of course it’s beautiful, the fountain is iconic and the details are incredible. But honestly, it’s almost impossible to enjoy properly because it’s always overcrowded, no matter the time or season. So many tourists push and block the view 😩 Still, worth a quick visit if you’re in Rome, just don’t expect a peaceful moment there.

Lot's of visitors around the place but still guards are keeping it in order and safe. It's another centrally located attraction, as many more around Rome city centre. You can use public transport of course but unless in a hurry you may better walk to the place for best experience of Rome spirit. Lovely architecture with lots of decorative details.

I visited the Spanish Steps and really enjoyed exploring the area around them. The atmosphere was lively and full of energy, with people sitting on the steps, taking photos, and enjoying the beautiful surroundings. The view from the top is amazing, and the nearby streets are filled with elegant shops, cafés, and historical buildings. It’s one of those iconic spots in Rome where you can just sit, relax, and take in the charm of the city. Definitely worth a visit.

We visited the Spanish Steps and Piazza di Spagna, and it's every bit as iconic as you'd imagine. The atmosphere is vibrant and full of life, though it was a little crowded when we were there, which is to be expected at such a famous spot. The view from the top of the steps, looking down over the piazza and the rooftops of Rome, is absolutely stunning. At the bottom, the Fontana della Barcaccia is a beautiful and unique centerpiece. It was lovely to see people gathered around the "sinking boat" sculpture to take photos. Despite the crowds, it's one of those essential Roman experiences. Finding a spot on the steps to sit and take in the scene is a moment you won't forget. Just be prepared to share it with plenty of other admirers.

We visited the Spanish Steps at night, and it was very nice. The area was calm and not very crowded, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The steps were beautifully lit, creating a peaceful and romantic atmosphere far from the busy daytime scenes. It was the perfect time to take a quiet stroll, sit for a while, and admire the stunning architecture of the Trinità dei Monti church above and the charming Piazza di Spagna below. The view of the city lights in the distance added to the charm. I quickly realized how out of shape I was however. This is quite the climb. Everything was amazing however I ranked at a four because realistically its steps, there are a lot of amazing attractions and incredible architecture throughout the city. If you're in Rome, I do highly recommend visiting the Spanish Steps after dark—you get to enjoy one of the city's most iconic spots in a much more relaxed and intimate setting.

Magnificent piece of architecture. It has a great view from behind the pond. Try to go early in the day (before 7am) and you will find perfect views for pictures and to appreciate the beauty. Tourists necessarily sitting on the stairs just spoil the view. Dear tourists, once you have seen the view, please step aside and let others view and enjoy as well. On any time it is crowded but still manageable.

Popular location full of tourists. Lovely buildings surrounding the piazza, monument and the fountain at the bottom of the stairs. We were there during the day but I guess it would be even more spectacular at night. Especially the fountain. For best photos I think you should try shooting from bottom, behind the fountain ⛲️ From the top you can catch a good photo of that narrow street with lovely buildings on both sides.

Spanish Steps in Rome: Beautiful landmark and definitely worth visiting. The atmosphere is vibrant, especially around sunset. Great place to sit, relax, and enjoy the view of the city. The surrounding area is full of good cafés, shops, and gelato spots. A must-see when in Rome.

Very nice area of Rome, but even in November thousands and thousands of tourist minute by minute . Architecture of area is incredible nice , unforgettable moments. One of the place you have to see , if you are in Rome , but my advice is go early and near to the place is Fontana di Trevi so as earlier you go the better.

Was a great site to see while on tour around the Eternal City. They recently cleaned the facade of the building so the stone is now clean and bright. Its usually very crowded for most of the day unless you come early in the morning. The guides were very nice and gave us a lot of cool information about the history of the Colosseum. Definitely a great place to see at least once while visiting Rome.

This was cool. As a tourist from outside Italy this was a cool thing to do. We did a tour and our tour guide was excellent, highly recommend. Our tour guide was called Valerio and he knew so much history, for any question you had he had an answer to. Highly recommend doing a tour. This was a neat part of history to see in Italy and very cool to see it in person.

This is one of the nicest places in The world. Colosseum is indeed one of list of destinations that you simply can’t missed when you are in Rome. It was one in a lifetime worth experience for me. Our tour guide (Bogdan) was fantastic. He was very informative; felt we got a lot of additional information that you wouldn't get without a good guide. He clearly has a personal interest in learning about the history of Rome, which he shared with us. He was a lot of fun and made the experience personal and throughly enjoyable. I would highly recommend this tour. Thank you .

Been seeing photos and videos of this breathtaking piece of history my whole life, now was the time to see it in person. Don’t forget to go and visit it in both daylight and night cause it’s amazing in both. The light decoration is something that is spectacular in Rome in general, so don’t miss out!

We had a guided tour which meant we got in really quickly with no wait time. We visited 10th Nov 2025 and whilst the crowds were still quite busy, we did not get stuck in any queues. A really good experience with plenty to see and learn. Highly recommended.

Visited Colosseum with the attic ticket and climbed to the highest view point in colosseum. Absolutely stunning views and experience looking down the whole colosseum. You will be in awe of the size of it, and just imagine how it was like , 2000 years ago. Attic ticket was very exclusive as there are very few slots and tickets kept being bought immediately after a particular time slot opened up on the official site. Suggest to monitor regularly for it. Wait was minimal as the line was short and moved quickly.

Verdict: great experience! You should go! We went for a night tour of the colosseum, which I had booked in advance through AirBnB or Aviator. It was kind of difficult to find the entry point as there was some construction, but eventually we (the guests) found each other and found the way in. So if it happens to you, stay calm and find your people ☺️ It was great to hear the history of the colosseum and see how much truth there is in the movies we had seen. The kids enjoyed the visit, the mystery that the nighttime brought, and they also enjoyed seeing it the next day in the daytime. The colosseum is right next to other historical sites, the Roman Forum (for which you need a ticket to enter),good food, and fresh water (a really cool thing about Rome’s history that is tangible and useful today)

Difficult to reach on foot as it is on top of a hill. Easy to reach by car or bus. Very beautiful monument .A big garden nearby.You can take nice sunset view photos and enjoy a small snack or a soft drink sitting in the edge. ( no cafe). Cool breeze.There is usually someone playing music.

On strolling up to the top of the hill, you can visit a very old church and several spots that give you a panoramic view of Rome. St. Peter's dome is in the line of sight through the trees. A very nice place to visit while in town. Not many tourists so you can have all the time you want.

Very nice overlook of Rome. Trees have grown to inhibit views from some areas. Many people enjoying the evening.

Well worth the hike and to watch the cannon fire. Loos are also €1 but they are very clean and well stocked. Very nice.

Perfect place to watch both sunrise and sunset. It does get quite busy for sunset but since it’s a large overlook there are plenty of places you can see the Sun from. My friend mentioned that the trees are a bit in the way but we were a 15 minute walk from the hill so it was the perfect location for me. Barely anyone was there for sunrise so it was a very peaceful moment for me and my friend. I recommend getting there at least 30 minutes early if you want to see all of the different sky changes. If you’re ever there for Festa della Repubblica you can also see the jets fly over with the flag colors from the hill.

Great hike to see a nice sunset and view of Rome! Highly recommend visiting this place for its views and history.

Worth the walk up there. Great views and good vibes. Grab some wine at the vendor and enjoy the view while walking around.

This was one of my favorite places in Rome! The walk up to the castle over the bridge lined with angel statues is absolutely beautiful — every one is different and worth stopping for a photo. Once inside, it feels like stepping back through layers of history. The rooms, the artwork, and even the winding stairways are fascinating. The best part is reaching the very top terrace where you get an incredible view of the city and St. Peter’s Basilica — especially from the windows. There’s also a little café up there where you can relax with a cappuccino and just take it all in. Plan to give yourself a couple of hours — it’s much larger inside than it looks from the street. Definitely one of those places that feels magical and peaceful, even in busy Rome. Highly recommend!

We visited Castel Sant'Angelo after sunset and even without going inside, it was a breathtaking experience. The castle is dramatically lit against the night sky, creating a powerful and majestic silhouette that towers over the Tiber River. The atmosphere around the castle and on the Ponte Sant'Angelo bridge was romantic and serene. Seeing the illuminated angels on the bridge with the castle as a backdrop felt like something out of a movie. It was much less crowded than during the day, making it perfect for a peaceful evening stroll. While we're sure the interior is fascinating, the exterior alone is absolutely worth seeing at night. It's a fantastic free way to appreciate one of Rome's most iconic landmarks in a truly magical light. Highly recommend for an evening walk!

One of the most impressive historical landmarks in Rome. The architecture is absolutely stunning, and the views from the top are breathtaking you can see the Tiber River, St. Peter’s Basilica, and much of the city’s skyline. The interior is filled with fascinating history, from ancient Roman times to its use as a papal fortress. The museum inside is well-organized with informative displays and beautiful artworks. I really enjoyed walking through the corridors, courtyards, and terraces that tell the story of centuries past. It’s definitely a must-visit spot in Rome, especially around sunset when the light makes the whole place glow.

Castel Sant’Angelo impressed me with its massive structure and stunning views over Rome. Walking through the ramps, terraces, and old corridors felt like stepping between centuries of history. The rooftop panorama was the highlight, offering a beautiful look at the Tiber River and the city. A fascinating and memorable visit overall.

Time well spent in Rome, even if all you want are views of Rome! We read everything about the castles extensive history. From the outside it is very obvious where it gets added on and added on. I like that dichotomy of the sparseness in the mosaleum and then the richness of the papal apartments.. There were lots of lovely exhibits and vantage spots. You do need to watch your surroundings, we saw many people miss small exhibits that were just to the left or right if a stair. Only about 5 people we saw walked around the entire castle on the outter gates, missing some great views of the bridge below. Not really for people with mobility issues, although the castle certainly tries, there are just a lot of stairs!

Phenomenal and beautiful castle almost in the center of the Rome. I can recommend to do a tour inside where is a lot of things to see. Inside you can see for example : models of the castle from past, different soldiers armours from the different times ago, swords, axes a many other things . It is like one big museum. From the top of the castle is unbelievable view for all Rome. And you can see the statue of saint Angelo. Absolutely phenomenal !! You must see it .

An iconic symbol of Rome, and one of my favorite places in this city. They always have one or more small rotating exhibits that offer an excuse to come back over and over again. Beautiful in the daytime, even better after dark and illuminated. Don't miss the strategically located bar ristorante with breathtaking views of Rome and of St Peter's. Reservations for general admission to the castle generally not necessary unless a popular exhibit is happening. A separate ticket will be required if you're interested in a tour of the "Passetto", the Pope's secret escape passage. Advanced reservations and planning are highly recommended for this tour that may be only on limited days and times.

Loved walking through the Aventine Hill area. Several interesting things to see, and without the hustle and bustle of some of other of rooms highlights. Recommend walking through this area.

A tranquil and affluent residential hill offering some of Rome's most surprising views. The famous Keyhole of the Priory of the Knights of Malta provides a perfectly framed view of St. Peter's dome, while the Orange Garden offers a sweeping sunset panorama.

Must see location in Rome. Not overrun with tourists apart from that keyhole thing. Lovely orange grove with sweeping city views, quaint basilica with friendly priest who wished me a bona sera.

This was a beautiful spot to wonder around with great views over the city. There was also the added bonus of the Aventine Keyhole. There was a line of people wanting to take their picture but it wasn't too long (but ensure your camera is ready to go when its your turn so you don't keep everyone else waiting behind you for too long).

I recommend it if you are going to be in the area and want to get a view of Rome from above. If you have limited time, or are concerned about the walking, then Castel Sant' Angelo is a much better option. I feel the view of the Vatican is better from there, and you can see Rome as well.

Also where you can see St Peter's dome through a keyhole, but having already seen it did not stop this time because of the bus loads of tourists waiting in line. It's one of the original 7 hills of Rome and well worth a visit

When in Rome do not miss to go on the Aventine Hill! You will be enchanted by the amazing panoramic views and the beautiful parks located there. The Aventine Hill is one of the seven hills on which Ancient Rome was built. We all know that St Peter's Dome is visible almost from everywhere due to its big dimension, here you also have the chance to look at the famous Dome directly from a Key Hole. Looking through the hole, you will be able to see the Cupola surrounded by trees and flowers too. How is it possible? Well, the Key Hole is in the door of thr 'secret garden': the gardens of the Priorato di Malta. Overall, its a good place where you find silence and enjoy the one of the views of Rome away from the noise of the city center.

Beautiful place to watch the sunset! 🌅 There was some construction going on when I visited, which partly blocked the view, but I still managed to capture some lovely photos. The garden is smaller than I expected, yet absolutely charming. Peaceful atmosphere — people strolling around, a man playing the violin, birds singing, and beautiful trees all around. It felt like a little fairytale. ✨

Beautiful gardens with a beautiful view of Romes skyline great for a sunset. Unfortunately there is restoration work at the moment so ruins what could be a magical view but when it is finished it will be great again

Beautiful garden! Pity that the place to see the panoramic view is currently under construction. Everyone minds their own business whether it’s dog owners having fun with their four-legged friends, a yoga group, or a serene watercolor painter. The garden itself has a very calming atmosphere.

Cool spot for sunset, but it's under construction, so you can't go on the steps. You will need to put your phone through the fence to get a sunset Pic. Gets busy for sunset, so get there 30 min before or you won't have a spot to stick phone through the fence for the photo.

They had close the balcony. There is not enough to see. The walk to the garden is nice and the neighborhood is full of history . There is ‘ the mouth of the truth’ in the front garden door and free drinking watter

Beautiful views and gardens. Serene and stunning location. Definitely a must try when visiting Rome.

Good place to relax. But the view of Rome isn't accessible because of the reconstruction. Deep shade. Dogs can visit but they must be on the line.

An unforgettable experience! Booking was seamless from start to finish. The show itself was absolutely breathtaking—pure magic on stage. We reserved balcony seating, which offered a perfect view and added to the charm. The decor and ambiance were stunning, steeped in elegance and history. The audience was unique, clearly made up of true music lovers. It’s an ideal outing for couples, adding a romantic touch to the night. The staff and organizers were incredibly professional, stylish, and graceful. I truly loved every moment and can’t wait to return.

Very professional and respectful place. We can feel the seriousness and the passion of music and opera. I didn't know where my seats were and I kindly asked to one of the attendant for help in English. I went to see Adriana Mater C an emotional story. Loved it and everything was on point!

Premiere with Alcina of Haendel Excellent work rare production of Baroque opera. Well done thanks for this unique experience! Creative Team: Conductor: Rinaldo Alessandrini Director: Pierre Audi Principal Cast: Alcina: Mariangela Sicilia Ruggiero: Carlo Vistoli Morgana: Mary Bevan Bradamante: Silvia Frigato Melisso: Francesco Salvadori Oronte: Anthony Gregory Oberto: Caterina Piva This production is a collaboration with De Nationale Opera, Amsterdam, promising a fresh and innovative interpretation of Handel's work.

I had an amazing time at the teatro dell'opera di roma. Was there for the Othello opera and the black swan ballet it was amazing. The architecture is breathtaking and I had seats at the top and from a balcony and both were great. The price was reasonable and the staff was helpful even though I didn't speak much Italian. It is close to the train station and they have a great variety with drinks and snacks for the intermission. I can't wait for my next visit to Rome so I can see another show.

Absolutely beautiful venue. The Marco Spada Ballet was magnificent!

Historical place, keeping its contemporary profile! Excellent service (except from the bar)

Beautiful building, and very elite environment. The balcony seats are good only if you are sitting in the first line, otherwise too tight and can't see the scene properly.

Nice enough. No frills. Definitely not a fancy hotel, but the beds are comfortable, the AC and wifi worked great for me. Check in/check out was smooth and easy. Only bad thing I’ll say is the carpets were quite dirty, they could use a cleaning. Overall a good experience.

The location was very good, but the room was nothing like the photos – it was completely disappointing.

Can't really fault it, we had a good stay and service, the only reason for losing a star is we actually stayed in the hotel instead and the room was small and had poor natural lighting. The breakfast is managed by the hotel and is of a good standard with lots of options and friendly staff. Housekeeping came by daily and did a fantastic job, so overall would recommend!

Arrived to the hotel to get the keys and didn't get any information about wifi. There is no phone at the room so had to go to reception to ask. Had a problem with the shower that has been fixed quickly but also had a problem with the air con. They sent one guy that said it's working fine but I said it doesn't then they just ignore it. Came the second day to complain and sent another guy that said again it's ok but clearly the air con doesn't work. They couldn't offer me an extra room but when I checked online if they have spare rooms it says they do. Not impressed!

Elegant and comfortable. In the middle of town.

Clean rooms, great breakfasts and friendly personnel, good location. But thin walls :)

very cozy and clean!

It's a plaza surrounded by ancient ruins of official government buildings. It was the main marketplace. It's definitely worth visiting if you are seeing colosseum. I came to know about it when we booked our colosseum tour as a package. It's a fascinating place with full of history, but lacks maps and information board. Do allow few hours to walk as it's a massive place plus some places it's bit hilly. Near the exit there is a cafe which is a bonus point.

Huge Place, where you can imagine how people lived 2000 years ago, how buildings were huge and how incredible was architecture in that times. Beautiful place with full of history. In the past area was split and dedicated to more Ceasars, like Nervo, Augustus, etc . You have to see it , it's great place to get history into mind :) Tickets you can buy together with colloseum.

Formerly the center of public life in ancient Rome. I went here as part of my coliseum tour. Not as much grandeur of the coliseum, of course, but it was fascinating to walk through the old heart of the Eternal City, not to mention the ruins of Octavian/Augustus' palace.

Amazing to see. Could easily spend all day there. We entered by "Via dei Fori Imperiali" which was a lot quieter than the entrance by the colosseum. Toilets dotted around and we found 1 cafe by our entrance. Really worth seeing.

What a place! We bought the combined ticket with the Colosseo entrance. Visited the Colosseo at 9 am and by 10:15 we were at the Forum, thankfully, because when we left at around 1pm, the line was so big that it went around the other street. The place is huge and you can easily get "lost"or not see some interesting parts. Tip: download some map so that you can undertand where you are at the moment. Very impressive and i left with my heart full!

This was the most amazing experience - we went with a tour guide so didn’t have to wait to get in, the queue was pretty long so would recommend - I would also recommend a tour so you actually get to know what is what - our guide was very Informative, but didn’t go on and on and make it boring - it was absolutely fascinating to learn the history and see what it used to be like from pictures she showed us and what is still present today. Such a great time - would love to return and spend more time here as we only had about 1hr in here - you could easily spend 1/2 -1 day here depending on the level of your interest - highly recommend!

This was so neat to see... Very large space, with ruins everywhere. There was pretty decent signage for each of the sites. Not too crowded when we visited, in the late afternoon after seeing the colosseum.

We recently visited the Mouth of Truth in Rome. Be prepared for a very long queue! We also found that its location is quite a distance from other major attractions. If you're on a tight schedule or have limited time for sightseeing in Rome, you might consider skipping this one. While it's an iconic spot, the time spent queuing and traveling to and from it might not be worth it if your time is precious.

It’s a free entry and surprisingly you are offered free photo shoot 😄 there is always a queue for getting closer to the monument, however, worthy to wait.

For the donation, it is ane excellent deal. It is a picture opportunity and you donate any amount you wish. I did 2 euros. Line up goes fast and you exit through the church giftshop.

The monument is well worth a visit. If you like your filmography and remember seeing Roman holiday it’s a great walk down that scenes memory lane. It’s donation only so that’s up to you. Queues can get get quite timely I’d say get there early as possible to avoid queues. But if you don’t wanna wait you can pop your camera through the bars and take a snap in between people getting ready for photos.

Wheelchair access via a gate right by the mouth of truth. A helpful member of staff opened it for us. Step to get in which was somewhat challenging. Church attached was nice for a quick visit.

It's quite a short line, you can walk from other attractions here. I recommend it if you are not in rush.

If your a fan of the movie its worth stoping by. The chuch its attached to is lovely as well.

The Pantheon is an absolutely breathtaking sight from the outside. Its massive, ancient columns and the grand inscription are incredibly impressive, and it's amazing to stand in front of a structure with so much history. We unfortunately didn't get to go inside because the line was very long, wrapping around the piazza. It was a bit disappointing, but even just seeing the exterior and feeling the energy of the square was worth the visit. We'd definitely recommend seeing it, but maybe aim for an off-peak time if you want to avoid the wait and actually get inside! It's still a magnificent landmark to experience.

We didn’t go inside because the line was very long, but even just standing in front of the Pantheon was incredible. The building is so well-preserved and truly breathtaking — it instantly captures your attention. You can really feel the history and grandeur just by looking at it from the outside. A must-see in Rome!

An interesting experience. The structure and its interior are impressive. We bought the tickets as an add-on to our reservation through Booking.com. The place looks beautiful both at night and during the day. I recommend it.

An awe-inspiring masterpiece that truly lives up to its reputation. Even with the summer crowds and a rather long queue, the wait was well worth it. The moment you step inside, the cool air, gentle light from the oculus, and perfect harmony of architecture take your breath away. Every detail tells a story of centuries past, yet the space feels timeless and alive. A must-see in Rome — both humbling and unforgettable.

Incredible historic monument. The dome is completely made of concrete! There’s a hole in the top of the dome which allows rain to come into the Pantheon! When you’re inside the dome, it feels like you are standing inside of an eye, looking through the iris, or the top of the dome. This is the resting place of the incredible artist Ascended Master Raphael! His tomb is here, and you can visit him there. This Pantheon has been made to be a church dedicated to the Virgin Mary, praising our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

A must visit when in Rome. An architectural masterpiece. Being incredibly well maintained, One is able to see the Pantheon as the Roman’s would have seen it in their time. Pictures don’t do it justice. I would recommend getting their early morning 9am so you beat the crowds. The audio guide (most languages) is available once you are inside. At 10 euro it is fantastic value as it gives a great understanding of all things about the Pantheon. Entry is quite cheap too, you can cover it all in an hour!

The Pantheon is an absolute masterpiece,breathtaking in every sense. The moment you step inside and look up at that majestic dome with the open oculus, you’re left in pure awe. It’s incredible to think that this structure has stood strong for nearly 2,000 years! The harmony of light, space, and symmetry is simply magical. Whether you love history, architecture, or just beauty itself — the Pantheon is a must-visit. Truly one of the most inspiring places on Earth.

A hidden gem in Trastevere. The Raphael frescoes are amazing. I loved all the fruits. We visited in March and all the citrus trees in their beautiful garden were full of fruit, and parrots. The Villa is very near the Rome Botanical Garden and visiting the two makes for a lovely afternoon.

This hidden villa provides rooms filled with art dating back to the 13th century. The art is really diverse and interesting, some are disturbing, others are of beautiful landscapes! Whilst the building is huge, the visit didn’t take too long to walk through as It was only a portion of the building itself.

Nice reprieve from the usual crowded tourist sites in Rome/vatican City. Small enough ( took about an hour) to leisurely walk around w zero crowds. Garden was peaceful & on a warm day breezes felt cool sitting under the trees . Close enough to walk from St peters w many restaurants / shops nearby too.

Loved this place! Hardly any crowds, just beautiful Raphael frescoes and a calm vibe. Such a nice break from the busy tourist spots in Rome.

Stunning villa with frescos not only by Raffaelo but also Sebastiano del Piombo and Il Sodoma, as well as various other magical things and temporary exhibitions. Well worth visiting and beautiful gardens as well. Right across the street is the Galleria Corsini with an impressive collection of paintings—no Raphaels tho!

Very quiet place. Perfect for watching some art. Its not big so can be a fast tour when visiting Trastevere.

This is one of the nicest Villa’s I’ve ever visited. It’s very unique architecture and design make it a really genuine place. It can be busy at times, so check the times. There are plenty of great works of art to see, there are lots of nice, statues, paintings and artifacts. The collection is very well preserved and displayed. The grounds are very well kept and maintained, there’s lots to see and do in and around this area. I really enjoyed my time here and I would definitely recommend checking it out.

Piazza del Campidoglio (often anglicized as Capitoline Hill Square) is one of the most elegant and historically significant squares in Rome. Location & Significance • Located on Capitoline Hill (Campidoglio in Italian), one of the Seven Hills of Rome, and historically the political and religious heart of the ancient city. • Overlooks the Roman Forum and is near Piazza Venezia, making it a central point for visitors exploring ancient Rome. Designed by Michelangelo • In 1536, Michelangelo Buonarroti was commissioned by Pope Paul III to redesign the square. • The trapezoidal shape, geometric star pattern on the pavement, and the elegant symmetry were revolutionary and symbolized a shift from medieval to Renaissance urban design. Key Buildings Around the Square 1. Palazzo Senatorio – The central building at the rear, which still serves as the seat of Rome’s city government. 2. Palazzo dei Conservatori – To the right; houses part of the Capitoline Museums (sculpture and artifacts). 3. Palazzo Nuovo – To the left; also part of the Capitoline Museums (Roman busts and statuary). The Statue in the Center • A bronze equestrian statue of Emperor Marcus Aurelius, which symbolizes Rome’s imperial glory. • The current statue is a replica; the original is preserved inside the Capitoline Museums to protect it from the elements.

Michelangelo’s design is a stunning example of Renaissance urban planning. Great views of the Forum from the back. The Lupa Capitolina adds to the historical weight.

Amazing architecture and beautiful sights from outside and inside the square. Visited in late September at noon and the atmosphere was super lovely. Won't hesitate to come here once more as I get a chance.

🚨🚨🚨WEEDING ALERT 🚨🚨🚨 check photos Piazza del Campidoglio ("Capitoline Square") is a public square (piazza) on the top of the ancient Capitoline Hill, between the Roman Forum and the Campus Martius in Rome, Italy. The square includes three main buildings, the Palazzo Senatorio (Senatorial Palace) also known as the Comune di Roma Capitale (City Hall), and the two palaces that make up the Capitoline Museums, the Palazzo dei Conservatori and the Palazzo Nuovo, considered to be one of the oldest national museums, founded in 1471 when Pope Sixtus IV donated some of the museum's most impressive statues, the She-wolf, the Spinario, the Camillus and the colossal head of emperor Constantine. Over the centuries the museums' collection has grown to include many of ancient Roman's finest artworks and artifacts. If something was considered too valuable or fragile in Rome and a copy was made in its place for display, the original is likely now on display in the Capitoline Museum. The hilltop square was designed by Michelangelo in the 16th century. at the behest of Pope Paul III.

One of the most important squares in Rome both in ancient and renaissance.

Incredible architecture and beautiful sights from outside and inside the square. Visited in late March at the evening and the atmosphere was super lovely. Won't hesitate to come here once more as I get a chance.

Michelangelo redesigned the whole square to make Rome feel more like a capital and less like an ancient ruin graveyard. The result? A stunning Renaissance piazza, reached by the ceremonial Cordonata stairs and centered around a horseback Marcus Aurelius (relax, it’s a copy). Flanked by the Capitoline Museums and two elegant palaces, it's a place where history, symmetry, and tourists with selfie sticks all come together. Don’t forget to look down — the star-patterned paving is Instagram’s real MVP here.

Quite disappointing considering the historical importance of the bridge for Christianity. Ponte Flaminio near by is half renenew an looks great. Both bridges are in a remote area from down town.

A very cool, cozy & historic place to go with your loved ones for relaxation, jogging & cycling activity.

The oldest and the most beautiful bridge in Roma. On the left side of Tiber there i a small park with a caffee where you can enjoy view and good coffee.

This bridge is a bit outside of the centre of Rome but you can walk along the Tiber River to get there.

Nice bridge where people in love put locks on the chains. The bar next to the entrance serves really good drinks and the service was excellent.

Much nicer for pedestrians than nearby Ponte Flaminio. Heading north, you exit the bridge into a bustling piazza

As ChatGPT suggested, I was supposed to see one of the most beautiful bridges in Rome here, but it turned out to be a complete disappointment. This bridge is also known for its love locks—there was few locks, hardly noticed😂. If you’re in Rome for only three nights, don’t waste your time on this. However, if you find beauty in everything and everywhere and have some extra time, feel free to visit. I captured the view from the bridge in a photo— it’s very magic and nice view, enjoy! ✨

Awesome and powerful!!!! The artworks and architecture leave you feeling inspired and uplifted! This place is so holy. You feel the power of God here. The building itself is an architectural marvel, and the inside is filled with incredible works of art. It’s definitely worth the trip to see it, you will be amazed. If you can handle many stairs, it is definitely worth it to go to the top of the dome. There’s an elevator to take you halfway up, but you’ll have to climb the stairs the rest of the way and it’s not an easy climb. However, the view from the top is breathtaking and you can see the entire Vatican City and Rome. Be prepared for large crowds of tourists everywhere inside and outside! I went on a weekday during off-season and it was still packed. Loved all the artwork of our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ! All glory to God! Amen!

Another mind blowing historical architectural marvel! Entered via an entrance from underneath after visiting the Necropolis (did a tour, absolutely amazeballs... different review). Visited St Peter's Tomb underground (controversial but not for a google map debate ;)... thought provoking though!). Cool that I could walk 'upstairs' and see the High Alter that is situated directly above and how everything was built around the tomb after seeing the different levels below. Historically and religiously significant, beautiful, opulent. There's lots of people as expected, just like you see on YouTube lol. But its worth it, and... you're in Rome. There's lots of people. The bascillica/s were basically built to keep the remains of St Peter safe. The first bascillica was built in the 4th century and the current bascillica started in 1506 and took just over a century to build. In this timeframe 20 popes oversaw its development keeping the tomb protected. Different artistic/architectural influences over time including Michelangelo's great hand which gives you some idea of the vibe there.

Amazing basilica. Definitely worth visiting at least once in a lifetime. Amazing arhitecture, artwork, sculptures, paintings. Incredible view from the top of the dome, if you visit the basilica be sure to not miss out if you are not afraid of higts, and you are not claustrophobic because the way up tends to take you through narrow stair ways. It's an amazing place, one of a kind in the world at this magnitude. Buy tickets in advance.

The visit to Saint Peter's Basilica was a must see, especially during special religious days or events. The wait line to get in was long, but it moved fairly quickly. Security was easy to get through. Once in the Basilica you will be struck with beautiful and awe at the size, splendor, and beauty of the space. Every wall is decorated. The dome is absolutely beautiful. Even though there were many people inside there was a dedicated space for personal prayer near the front of the alter. There is so much detail and history within the walls of Saint Peter's and the Vatican. I would most definitely recommend anyone to visit Vatican City and step into the Basilica.

St. Peter’s Basilica is one of those rare places that completely exceeds expectations, no matter how many photos or documentaries you’ve seen before visiting. The moment you step through the doors, you’re struck by its sheer scale and splendor — the soaring dome, the intricate marble floors, the soft echo of footsteps, and the quiet sense of reverence that fills the air. It’s not just architecture; it’s a living masterpiece. Michelangelo’s Pietà is an emotional centerpiece — delicate, powerful, and impossibly detailed. Bernini’s grand bronze canopy rises like a sculpture of light beneath the dome, drawing your eyes upward in awe. Every inch of the basilica feels alive with centuries of devotion, artistry, and history. Climbing to the top of the dome is an experience not to be missed. The narrow stairways and spiral paths eventually open up to one of the most breathtaking views in all of Rome — the Vatican, St. Peter’s Square, and the city’s terracotta rooftops stretching out toward the horizon. Go early to avoid crowds, dress respectfully, and give yourself time to linger. St. Peter’s Basilica isn’t just a stop on a sightseeing list — it’s a place that leaves a quiet, lasting impression on your heart.

Absolutely beautiful! The moment you walk in, you can’t help but be amazed by the high ceilings, incredible paintings, and the stunning details everywhere you look. The scale and artistry are breathtaking — pictures just don’t do it justice. A truly awe-inspiring place to visit!

Saint Peter’s Basilica is an absolute must-visit in Rome and one of the most magnificent landmarks in the world. As one of the four Holy Doors during the Jubilee year, it holds deep spiritual significance. The architecture is breathtaking, and every corner is filled with masterpieces — from Michelangelo’s Pietà to the grand dome offering stunning views. The interior is both majestic and peaceful, a true testament to centuries of devotion and artistry. Whether you come for faith, history, or beauty, this basilica leaves an unforgettable impression. Truly one of the greatest treasures of Vatican City and all of Rome.

Wonderful place. You can buy tickets online beforehand. There 2 lines for the entrance. One for those who want to buy tickets there and for ones with ready ones. We took tickets in the spot and waited for an hour on Monday at 2pm. There are people selling their tickets for 15 euros more expensive than the real price. There is a cafe there with reasonable prices. You can get there sandwiches, salads, pastry, coffee and wine. Good quality. There is a water fountain in the garden. Very crowded museum, but still quite comfortable to watch everything you want. Loved it!

This museum is truly one of a kind. The amount of history in one place is breathtaking. Highly recommend this tour. Purchase tickets prior to avoid any line. Check hours open to avoid any issues.

My main goal was to see the Sistine Chapel. After a long wait in the blistering sun, I finally arrived. We walked through the entire museum like cattle, surrounded by fellow tourists who seemed to have forgotten to pack deodorant for a hot summer day. This made the experience a bit less magical. At the end of the journey, we entered the chapel. However, you can't take pictures, talk, or truly savor the moment because you still feel like cattle in a herd. History, paintings, and art are indeed beautiful. Yet, I can think of more charming and enjoyable places that offer equal artistic experiences. Overall, I'm not convinced the wait and travel were worth it.

AMAZING!!! Give yourself at least a half-day, better a full day, especially if you do not have skip the line tickets. We had advance group skip the line tickets. Well worth the price especially during the hot summer days.

Go early and on weekdays away from church holidays and then you can enjoy the stroll through the Vatican museums. Be prepared to walk and have a bottle of water to rehydrate. You can refill from any tap with the potable water sign. There is so much to see and appreciate. Arts and history unfurl as you walk through. Listen to the different tour leaders as you cross their paths. Some have very interesting anecdotes. The artifacts are well preserved. Visitors were well behaved and observant of rules. See the photos. Vatican personnel were very efficient, polite and helpful. Toilets available at strategic locations and certainly appreciated. Clean. Make use of the Vatican post office to send a postcard.

Unbelievable! You "exit through the gift shop"...don't worry there are four of them. Too much to describe, you simply must visit. The various rooms are well kept....even the floors which must have seen untold millions of visitors is in virtually perfect condition! The history and beauty is almost overwhelming.

Great museum. With pregnant wife no queue for tickets :p same with stroller. Some stairs to conquer so not all accessible for wheelchair, but still majority. Restaurant inside very pricy.

​Campo de' Fiori has a captivating and dark history, with the philosopher Giordano Bruno being burned at the stake right here. I highly recommend looking up his story—it adds a powerful layer to the experience. Beyond its history, the piazza is a vibrant hub for both locals and tourists, filled with excellent restaurants and occasional markets. It's a wonderful place to walk through and soak up the lively atmosphere.

An amazing place with cool energy. We wanted to get here to the market, but unfortunately we came late and it was already over. But we were still very satisfied. At sunset there is an amazing light for photographers, you can take a lot of beautiful photos.

Very cool piazza. A market during the day, selling flowers, souvenirs and other items. Everything is taken down around 4-5pm, and it’s an open air piazza for the evening. Nice restaurants and usually live music.

An Evening of Movida in Rome: A Review of Campo de' Fiori at Night Campo de' Fiori at night is less a square and more an open-air Roman living room—pulsing with infectious energy. The transformation from its bustling daytime market to a vibrant nightlife hub is truly spectacular, making it an essential experience for anyone looking to feel the pulse of Rome after dark. The Atmosphere: Electric and Energetic As the last flower and produce vendors clear their stalls, the piazza doesn't quiet down—it simply shifts gears. The historic cobblestones quickly become a meeting point, a grand central terrace where the evening's entertainment unfolds. The energy is undeniable and absolutely live. The surrounding buildings, with their colorful facades, are beautifully lit, casting a warm glow over the crowds of locals and tourists spilling out from the numerous establishments. It's a very social scene, a true example of Italian movida. The air is filled with a lively mix: the clinking of wine glasses, the chatter of a dozen different languages, and the strains of music from the various pubs and bars lining the perimeter. If you enjoy people-watching, this is paradise. The crowd is diverse, ranging from young people meeting for an aperitivo to couples settling in for a late dinner. Dining and Drinks: The Heart of the Action The restaurants and bars are the engine of Campo de' Fiori's nightlife. Nearly every establishment offers outdoor seating, drawing you right into the heart of the square's electric buzz. • Restaurants & Trattorias: You'll find a wide selection of dining options, from traditional trattorias serving classic Roman dishes to more modern pubs and bars. While some of the square-side places cater heavily to tourists, the ambiance of dining right on the piazza, under the night sky, is hard to beat. For those looking for more authentic or quiet dining, the side streets immediately off the square, such as Via dei Giubbonari, host some exceptional, well-regarded spots. • Aperitivo Culture: Starting around dusk (7 p.m.), the square becomes a prime location for the classic Italian aperitivo (pre-dinner drink with snacks). This is a fantastic way to soak up the early evening energy. • Nightlife Spots: For those looking to enjoy a later evening, the area is famous for its wide variety of pubs and bars. Whether you're in the mood for a craft beer at a lively pub or a perfectly mixed cocktail, the options are plentiful and the atmosphere is guaranteed to be cheerful and convivial. Verdict Campo de' Fiori at night is vibrant, lively, and slightly chaotic—in the best way possible. It's a must-visit for anyone who wants to experience the exhilarating social life of Rome. The combination of beautiful historic architecture, excellent food and drink options, and an unbeatable, live atmosphere makes it a truly memorable evening destination. Just be prepared for crowds and noise; this is not the place for a quiet, intimate dinner, but rather for embracing the joyful roar of the Eternal City.

Campo de' Fiori is a must-see when visiting Rome. The square is full of life, color, and charm. I enjoyed the vibrant atmosphere, especially during the day when the market is active. You can find fresh fruits, vegetables, and local delicacies at great prices. The surrounding cafes and restaurants are perfect for a quick espresso or a full Italian meal. The architecture around the square is beautiful and very photogenic. It’s a wonderful spot to relax and people-watch. There’s a lot of history behind this square, and the statue of Giordano Bruno adds a powerful historical touch. It’s both a lively and reflective place at once. I highly recommend spending time here while in Rome.

What a wonderful part of Rome. Everything so convenient. It's a great neighborhood with family people and when you feel quite safe. So much to do in the plaza, mini restaurants and during the day there was a flea market until 5:00. Some great pizza, restaurants and some soup or gelato

Campo de’ Fiori is one of those places in Rome that feels alive from morning to night. During the day, it turns into a colorful open-air market , stalls packed with fresh fruits, vegetables, spices, olive oils, pastas, and flowers. It’s perfect if you want to experience a bit of local life or pick up some Italian specialties. Prices are fair for the center of Rome, and everything feels authentic and vibrant. In the evening, the square transforms completely. The market disappears, and cafés, trattorias, and wine bars fill the space with music and laughter. It’s a great spot for aperitivo or a relaxed dinner surrounded by locals and travelers. The square also carries a piece of history , right in the middle stands the statue of Giordano Bruno, a philosopher executed here in 1600 for his ideas, reminding everyone that this lively . You can reach it easily by bus (lines 64, 40, 46, or 62 stop nearby) or just walk , it’s about 5–10 minutes from Piazza Navona. Visit early in the morning for the market vibe, or come back in the evening for the atmosphere , either way, it’s a must-see in Rome.

The Temple of Venus and Rome is an impressive ancient site, offering stunning views of the Colosseum and surrounding ruins. The architectural details and historical significance make it a worthwhile stop, especially for those exploring the Roman Forum. While the site itself is partially in ruins, the sense of history and grandeur remains intact. It’s a peaceful spot to reflect on Rome’s past, away from the more crowded attractions. Its location along key historical pathways adds to its relevance, making it a natural stopping point for visitors navigating Rome’s layered history. Though signage could be more informative, the ability to stand among structures that once housed great Roman ceremonies makes this an engaging and thoughtful experience.

This temple is a breathtaking example of Roman grandeur and architectural elegance. Located near the Colosseum, it offers a stunning view of ancient ruins and the surrounding forum. The structure is well-preserved, and walking around it gives a sense of awe at the scale of Roman engineering. The atmosphere is peaceful despite the number of visitors, and it's a perfect place for photography. I highly recommend visiting on a clear day to truly appreciate the scenery and the history. It’s a must-see for history lovers and anyone exploring Rome’s iconic landmarks.

Temple of Venus, a hidden treasure within the Colosseum! Impressive architecture and fascinating history. The beauty of the ruins and the tranquility of the site are a perfect contrast to the bustle of the Colosseum. Visit and discover the magic of ancient Rome!

The Temple of Venus and Rome is a temple, partly ruined, standing on a high hill located between the Colosseum and the Roman Forum. Its vast remains, still visible today, testify to the wealth and size of the Roman Empire.

This is a very important monument, this is the temple of Venus, a major religious site of the Romans. It is destroyed from sides, but it is well kept and maintained. There is a museum attached to it right behind. Must visit!

A history which remains till now to see is something amazing and thanks to Italy for keeping it in a good shape. An amazing history with amazing stories to read about. It’s good to visit after visiting the Coliseum.

Am old temple for the glory of Rome and goddess Venus. This was damaged by a big earthquake in the olden times. One significant ruins to see when you visit the Roman Forum

If you are willing to pay tourist price for the view this is a great stop. But an Aperol Spritz and Mediterranean Fizz were $48 Euros. However, as I said paying for the experience. Waiters were great and the view was even better.

TLDR 🌟 Costly and somewhat challenging to access, but 100% worth it for the unbeatable Trevi Fountain views, top-notch service, and a peaceful escape from the crowds ✌️ As we looked around for a place to kick back and relax near the Trevi Fountain, we noticed a woman outside holding a small sign advertising a rooftop with views. Intrigued (and honestly desperate to escape the shoulder-to-shoulder sweaty crowds 🥵) we went inside to check it out ✅ Finding it wasn’t exactly straightforward—stairs to an elevator, more stairs, and then around a nondescript corner—but once we arrived, we found it to be a good choice. Basically Trevi Rooftop Bar feels like one of those ultimate travel hacks 🪄 stunning views of the fountain without the chaos below ✨ Now, here’s the catch: the prices are steep 🫣 Cocktails start at around €25 each, with beer, wine, and mocktails priced on the higher end as well. We would have ordered some food, but it was even more costly for small servings 😳 It became clear right away what their strategy is—offer an unbeatable view, make sure guests enjoy it, but keep turnover moving by setting the bar high (literally and figuratively). And honestly, it worked! ⛲️ That said, the service was excellent 🙌 Servers tracked arrivals and departures carefully, rotating guests into the best spots as tables freed up, so everyone got their moment with the view. They also offered complimentary small bites—refilled generously throughout our stay—which made the price tag feel a little more justifiable 👏 We ended up laughing and chatting with fellow travelers, soaking up the view, and never once felt rushed out even though we just got one cocktail each. For us, it was exactly the kind of break we needed in the middle of a busy sightseeing day 😍 If you’re looking for a budget-friendly stop, this isn’t it 🚫 But if you want an escape from the madness with excellent service and one of the best vantage points in Rome, Trevi Rooftop Lounge is absolutely worth the splurge! 😊

RIDICULOUS- my girlfriend and I had 1 glass of aperol and 1 shot of lemon drop each without being shown a menu. When it came time to pay we were charger 72 €! When we asked, we were told “ that’s the price for the view and the drinks ( for nothing but a brick wall, can’t see the fountain ). The servers have nothing to do with the price and I apologize for any uproar I made- but all in all this place is a rip off and should be avoided at all costs. I know this review sounds typical of a bad review- but I don’t want anyone else to have this experience.

One of the best choices to escape the crowd and see all of the fountain’s beauty. For a small fee you get cocktail and snacks. Calm and relaxing place ! A must when you see this part of the city ! *PS Negroni and Aperol Spritz is a good choice :)

Not worth to go. €25 per person. They have window but they also have railing . very had to take pics . Food was not good!! It is my first time doesn’t finish the cappuccino:( taste like …..

If you want to spend €25 just for a photo, sure — the view is the only good thing here. The breakfast is genuinely inedible, the coffee is basic filter, and there isn’t even fresh juice. Save your money and skip this place. You’re welcome.

Great service and very professional team, highly recommended for a glass or two with a stunning view over the Trevi fountain

First time in Rome for me & second for my husband. My husband & I are both gluten intolerant. We booked a private, gluten-free food tour. Our guide, Fabritzia, showed us highlights of Rome along with stops for Jewish artichoke, pizza, pasta, coffee, and gelato. The food was amazing. Fabritzia was easy to understand, taught us some Italian words, and provided an entertaining and interesting tour. We would highly recommend the tour & her as a guide.

Fab our tour guide was amazing!! She was very knowledgeable and really took her time to inform us of so much of the history of Italy and the food on our tour. She was simply wonderful and the food we were able to taste was delicious!! Definitely recommend a food tour whenever you have a chance!!

We went to London, Paris, Florence and Rome during our trip, and this was my favorite experience of the trip. Fabrizia was amazing and gave such great history with amazing food. Especially appreciated the history in the Jewish Ghetto, how the Jewish families were targeted during the Nazi regime and how they are memorialized throughout the neighborhood.

Fabrizia was an amazing guide who truly taught us so much about different sections of Rome, while we enjoyed delicious food! From the beginning she was friendly, energetic, organized, and was willing to answer any questions we had! She ensured the restaurants were ready for us, and helped us order our food successfully while avoiding cross contamination for celiac. Overall, I cannot say enough positive things about Fabrizia, and would highly recommend her tour to all of my friends and family!

Fabrizia is knowledgeable and friendly. She gave great insight on our food tour and showed us different historical parts of Rome . Thank you

Took a walking food tour around Rome with Fabrizia, she is fantastic and such a worthwhile tour! Great cured meats, cheese, and wine, then classic Roman pizza with beer! Then to the historical Jewish ghetto for artichokes and a walk through time. Finish with delicious gelato across from Julius Caesar’s assassination site, what an experience! Highly recommend!

Definitely a must do in Rome. The food was great and our tour guide Bruno told us so much about the area. The best part is the main course the restaurant is awesome and there is almost too much food

If you'll be there around 12 pm be ready for the cannon shoot

Nice but needs attention, what are the Roman taxes spent on, if not keeping beautiful places like this in order to

(Translated by Google) The Gianicolo, even if it is not one of the 7 hills of Rome, nevertheless remains an unmissable place in Rome because it offers a superb view of Rome and its monuments.

I don’t know why other reviewers say to come watch the sunset here, as you can’t actually see the sun

(Translated by Google) Historic hill with a beautiful view of Rome, but it deserves a little more cleaning. (Original) Storico colle con bella vista su Roma ma meriterebbe un po piu' di pulizia....

Piazza Navona is a truly stunning square and one of the most beautiful spots in Rome. The atmosphere is vibrant and full of life, with artists painting, street musicians playing, and visitors filling the cafes. The centerpiece is the magnificent Fountain of the Four Rivers. It's an absolute masterpiece of sculpture that you can just walk right up to. The other fountains complete the picture-perfect scene. It's the perfect place for a leisurely stroll, to people-watch, or to simply sit on a bench and enjoy. The energy is infectious, making it a must-visit piazza that captures the heart of Rome.

A very nice piazza. It was built over The Stadium of Domitian which was used for athletic competition. There are many nice stores and cafes. The 3 fountains, Fountain of the Moor, Fountain of Neptune and the Fountain of Four Rivers are beautiful. A great area to site see and have lunch or a drink. Well worth a visit if you are in Rome.

A beautiful site that everyone must see. We arrived at 9am and the piazza was really quiet. Take some time to walk between the three fountains and take in the architecture. If you are heading on to some of the churches in Rome but are ill equipped and need a scarf to cover yourself, don’t be tempted to buy from the little shops here. They charge €10 for a small scarf and you can find them for c. €3 in other shops.

Built on the elongated perimeter of the ancient Domitian Stadium, known as “Circo Agonalis,” where gymnastic competitions took place, Piazza Navona is one of the most beautiful and famous squares in Rome with its showy fountains, baroque palazzi, and colorful cast of street artists. My partner, our friends, family member, and I visited this spot in September during our golf cart tour. Since it was refurbished by Pope Innocent X, it has been a gathering spot for people from all over Rome and all walks of life, and it continues to be so to this day. At its center stands Gian Lorenzo Bernini’s magnificent Fountain of the Four Rivers (Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi), completed in 1651. This dynamic sculpture represents the four great rivers of the known continents at the time—the Nile, the Ganges, the Danube, and the Río de la Plata—each embodied by a powerful figure surrounding an ancient Egyptian obelisk. Two other fountains adorn the piazza: the Fontana del Moro at the southern end, depicting a Moor wrestling a dolphin, and the Fontana del Nettuno at the northern end, featuring Neptune battling a sea creature. Together, these fountains create a harmonious rhythm across the square, uniting art, mythology, and the musical sound of water. The church of Sant’Agnese in Agone added so much charm to the scene. The best part was no entrance fee, no crowds, just a short line. Once one steps inside, the interior is a feast for the eyes. Rich marble work, ornate gold details, and stunning frescoes create an atmosphere of grandeur and devotion. Whether one's stopping by during the day or in the evening, the space itself feels like stepping into an open-air museum—full of charm and atmosphere.

A very pleasant place. There are many tourists here, but it still feels very spacious. I encourage you to visit the square at different times of day — the light beautifully complements and shapes the atmosphere of this place. You can sit on the benches around the square or by the fountains and simply take it all in. In the afternoon, there are more people selling things illegally. The mornings are definitely calmer…

There early morning before the crowds & it was so peaceful & quiet & allowed you time to soak up the beauty. The fountains are lovely, the buildings so classical. Lots of cafes you enjoy watching the we world go by & the ever growing crowds.

Piazza Navona instantly became one of my favorite spots in Rome. The Baroque fountains, lively cafés, and street artists create an amazing atmosphere. Walking through the square feels like stepping into a painting, with history and beauty everywhere. It’s the perfect place to relax, wander, and soak in Rome’s charm.

This place is amazing its truly a thing of beauty that you must see in person to really fully appreciate The Last Judgment is a true masterpiece by Michelangelo. Its breathtaking artistry and spiritual depth make it a must-see for art enthusiasts and history buffs. The painting is so beautiful magnificent work of art. The emotions it evokes are unparalleled. A cultural treasure. Taking photos isn't allowed.

Absolutely stunning!! Words cannot describe it!! The beauty and history of it all just takes your breath away!! It's total madness with the amount of visitors and you have to have your wits about you especially if you've got a tour guide, but a must do when in Rome! Love, love, love it!!

The ceiling and the walls have very detailed painting on them. The life of Moses on 1 wall, the life of Jesus Christ on another. Another wall is a painting on the battle of Heaven and Hell. No video or photography is allowed, but worth the trip and tour price. A tour is the way Togo, because they explain things that may not be known without a local guide.

Highly recommended to visit and must secure an advance reservation. I saw huge queues for those who didn’t buy advance tickets. I am so glad we bought advance tickets and entered at the precise time. The whole museum takes a 2.5 hrs with a guide and very well worth it! The Sistine chapel doesn’t allow pics inside but it’s an amazing place to visit and see the original paintings and murals.

My goodness, how can we deserved so nice architecture, painting within three hours. It’s worth to be here. Make your plan earlier and come at least one hour to wait for Q. And take your time to enjoy yourself

What can I say? It's the Sistine Chapel! The artwork is amazing and breathtaking. Make sure that you buy your tickets as far in advance as possible. We opted for the guided tour, but if I did it again I would tour on my on. The museum is vast. Prepare for A LOT OF WALKING! The lines to get in can be a bit confusing, so take time to process the madness. I visited during the "off-season" (October) however, you could not really tell. We were hearded through the crowd in the very noisy hallways. The Sistine Chapel is at the end of the tour. You are not allowed to take photos and requested to be quiet inside the chapel. When we got there it was a madhouse! No reverence whatsoever; loud talking, photos being taking and guides yelling directions to clear pathways. Though the art was amazing, I couldn't wait to leave. I am just happy to be able to say I visited a landmark that I learned about in high-school. Be prepared for the hustle and bustle. 4 Stars because of the crowd.

Beautiful place... It's well worth the wait. Photography is not allowed inside the chapel. Buy a ticket to the Vatican Museum and you'll have a wonderful visit.

The Basilica of Santa Maria in Trastevere and its surrounding piazza are absolutely breathtaking at night, and I mean that in the most profound way. The moment you step into the piazza, you're hit with this incredible glow. The basilica's facade, with its famous golden mosaics sparkling under the floodlights, feels almost supernatural, like a beacon in the vibrant chaos of Trastevere. The entire scene feels magical and looks exactly like something you'd see on a postcard or in a movie. The piazza itself is an event. It’s buzzing with energy—a beautiful mix of locals out for an evening passeggiata, street artists performing, and travelers soaking in the atmosphere. The fountains murmur, people chat and laugh on the steps, and the sound of music from nearby cafes fills the air. It’s the kind of place that captures the very soul of a Roman evening. However, amidst all that historical beauty and charm, we also saw a less-polished, grittier side of the city. As we were taking in the incredible sight of the basilica, we noticed some young spray painters at work nearby. It was a jarring and unusual contrast—this sacred, ancient space with its intricate art, set against the raw, modern graffiti being created right there in the piazza. It pulls you out of the fairytale and reminds you that this place isn't just a preserved relic; it's a living, breathing, and sometimes messy part of the city. Ultimately, that contrast is what made the experience so memorable. The Basilica of Santa Maria in Trastevere at night is a powerful blend of ancient awe and contemporary life. It’s beautiful, a little bit raw, and perfectly captures the spirit of this incredible neighborhood. It’s a definite must-see.

Incredibly beautiful Basilica. Amazing Mosaics. For serious Catholics who appreciate historical buildings. The oldest parish in Rome, originally built in the 200s by approval of Pope Callisto II, further rebuilt and added to in 1100s.

Located on the lively Piazza Santa Maria in Trastevere, this church is one of the oldest in Rome and a true gem of the Trastevere district, known for its authentic Roman atmosphere. Originally founded in the 3rd century and rebuilt in the 12th century, it beautifully combines history, art, and spirituality. The golden mosaics on the façade immediately catch the eye, while the Romanesque bell tower overlooks the bustling square. Inside, visitors can admire the magnificent medieval mosaics by Pietro Cavallini, depicting the Virgin Mary crowned by Christ — a masterpiece of Byzantine-inspired art. The ancient marble columns, taken from old Roman temples, add to the church’s timeless charm. Santa Maria in Trastevere is both a spiritual haven and a vibrant cultural stop, perfect for discovering the heart and soul of the Trastevere neighborhood

A spectacular Roman gem and traditionally regarded as one of the earliest Christian places of worship in Rome, with a foundation possibly dating to the 3rd century. The dazzling golden mosaics on the façade and apse are the absolute highlight, especially as the evening light hits them. The ancient columns taken from the Baths of Caracalla also add incredible historic weight. A truly beautiful and central piece of the Trastevere neighborhood.

We noted this as one of the churches we wanted to try and see in Rome. The experience starts before you get in with the distinctive façade. The ceiling inside is just as impressive. Would recommend spending a bit of time here if you are in the neighborhood.

There are so many breathtaking churches, basilica, and cathedrals in Rome that it's easy to get jaded. But this is a beautiful church, reverent, majestic, exquisitely detailed and encouraging of inward reflection.

Do read about the history of the Santa Maria Basilica in Trastevere before you go there. Build in 1140 - 1143, the craftmanship is astonishing but coming from a young country myself, exposure to the ancient soul of Rome, is a humbling experience.

Anyone who rates this restaurant less than five stars doesn’t know what they’re talking about. It’s expensive, but you know that before you arrive. I’ve been to more than a dozen Michelin three star restaurants all over the world. This rates in the top five. The food is mine – blowing. The people are not stuffy. My only criticism would be the decor. It needs an update. Otherwise, perfection. And, if you are booked out 90 days in advance, why change anything?

My wife and I were incredibly fortunate to secure a reservation at La Pergola after days immersed in the breathtaking works of Da Vinci, Raphael, and other masters. What awaited us at dinner was nothing short of a masterpiece of its own—crafted by the brilliant Heinz Beck. Every aspect—the food, the atmosphere, the service—beautifully affirmed the honor of the restaurant’s Three Michelin Stars. Each dish was a revelation, not just in taste but in meaning, as we were lucky enough to learn the inspiration behind several of them. The layers of flavor, the precision, the harmony of textures—it was all deeply moving. This was more than a meal; it was an experience that stirred the soul. We would return to Rome just to dine at La Pergola again.

wow. a real michelin stars restaurant, the service was great. atmosphere was private and romantic, i couldn’t have asked for more. the food just kept coming! so fresh, so lovely.

Best dining experience of my life, first time at a three star Michelin. Everything was amazing; the taste the texture the service. A water menu from all around the world and two “books” lists of wine, very impressive wine collection.

Great, great, great restaurant with excellent food, service and wine. Simply amazing.

Dining at La Pergola is an unforgettable experience. The view overlooking Rome alone is worth the visit, but the experience just keeps getting better from there. The staff is efficient and super friendly, making you feel right at home while still being incredibly attentive. The food is just amazing. I have to mention the burnt wheat tagliolini with rabbit and peppers. This wasn’t even on the menu, but it was a total masterpiece. The flavors were so unique and perfectly done, it’s honestly unforgettable. Yes, it’s on the pricey side, but that’s expected, and it’s clear why this place has three Michelin stars. It really delivers on every level. If you're ever in Rome and looking for a special dining experience, La Pergola is absolutely worth it!

It’s unforgettable experience! Amazing atmosphere, amazing food and service… extremely attentive and nice chef, made for us one more main dish as surprise and compliment for my dress of this evening. He also came to every table few times. Deeply appreciated this behavior and attitude. Also it’s very nice that they have very beautiful and comfortable smoking room. Really best of the best!

I had a wonderful stay at this hostel! 🌿 The location is perfect – close to the main attractions, restaurants, and public transport. The rooms were clean, cozy, and well-maintained, with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The staff were very friendly and always ready to help with recommendations or any questions I had, which made me feel really welcome. The atmosphere is warm and relaxed – a great place to meet new people or simply enjoy some quiet time. I would definitely come back and highly recommend this hostel to anyone visiting The RomeHello⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Spanish Steps are one of Rome’s most iconic landmarks, and standing at the bottom looking up is truly breathtaking. The sweeping staircase feels grand yet inviting, leading from the lively Piazza di Spagna up to the beautiful Trinità dei Monti church. Climbing the steps is an experience in itself—you get wonderful views of the piazza below and the rooftops of Rome as you go. The atmosphere is always vibrant, with people relaxing on the steps, street artists nearby, and the Barcaccia Fountain adding to the charm at the base. What I loved most was how the Spanish Steps combine elegance, history, and daily life all in one place. Whether you sit and people-watch, take photos, or enjoy the view from the top, it’s a must-see when in Rome.

The Spanish Steps are one of Rome’s most iconic landmarks, full of charm and history. Sitting on the steps and watching the lively atmosphere around Piazza di Spagna is an experience in itself – a mix of locals, travelers, and the timeless beauty of the city. The view from the top is beautiful, especially at sunset when the square below glows with warm colors. The steps are also perfectly located, surrounded by elegant shops, cafés, and narrow Roman streets that are a joy to explore. Even though it gets crowded, the energy of the place makes it special. It’s more than just a staircase – it’s a meeting point, a stage for people-watching, and a spot that captures the spirit of Rome. A must-visit if you’re in the city – simple, beautiful, and unforgettable.

If you come to Rome you must come to this place. Good in the evening time. Normally there is a crowd but still you Good to go to the top and visit the church. And down to the bottom you have the famous fountain were you can go inside it and take photos.

Iconic place, if you’re in Rome this is a must!! You must live the experience to walk and climb this steps. Views above are really nice. On the top you can find a church, is not really beautiful compared with another ones in Rome (Im not a religious person, so my opinion is objective)

Although the square is not big, you can see the Spanish Step and the famous shopping street. There is a fountain in the middle of the square where you can add water. There are different cosmetics and clothing stores around the square. You can spend about one to two hours here to slowly explore.

Visited in July — extremely hot and crowded. It’s a popular town square with historical significance, but honestly, nothing particularly stood out for me. The area was packed with tourists, and the summer heat made it tough to enjoy. Aside from ticking it off the Rome checklist, there wasn’t much to do or see that felt unique.

Dining at Aroma Restaurant was truly an unforgettable experience. Set on a stunning rooftop with sweeping views of the Colosseum, the atmosphere perfectly blends fine dining with an undeniably romantic and historic backdrop. The menu showcased refined Italian cuisine with modern touches, each dish crafted with precision and bursting with flavor. Every course felt like a balance of tradition and creativity, highlighting the best of local ingredients. The wine pairings were equally impressive, complementing the food beautifully. Service was impeccable—attentive, warm, and knowledgeable without ever feeling intrusive. From the moment we arrived until the last sip of espresso, everything flowed seamlessly. While Aroma is certainly a fine dining experience with premium pricing, the combination of world-class cuisine, breathtaking views, and top-tier service makes it worth every moment. It’s not just a meal, but a memory.

Very disappointing experience dining here, specially considering its Michelin ranking. Start with the positives, being the unrivalled view, stupendous. Now for the negatives, the service was efficient but robotic and uncaring with not a smile to be seen. All the interest was about turning the table and getting it ready for the next seating. The food being another negative, not a bad dish but not a really good one either, for a Michelin starred restaurant you expect to have at least one memorable dish but alas, could not pick one. Pricing was exorbitant, 250 euros to be rushed out the door, bill was on the table before petit fours were finished. To top the evening off, they charged 70 euros for two negronis!

I always visit Michelin star restaurants wherever I go and this is the first time where I believe that attention to detail and a curated experience might be only happening at the kitchen. Food was exquisite, I don’t have a doubt we were served the best quality. However waiters were lacking of attention, mixing up plates, giving a memorized almost automatic description of what they were serving us instead of focusing on delivering every meal with elegance and detailed explanation. Not just a 1 second super fast incomprensible explanation. It was my birthday and they apparently didn’t read that prior the reservation and on top of everything I had to take my drink from the cooler several times (which is not a problem however is not something happening at any Michelin star restaurant I’ve been). As I said, a lot of Michelin guideline points were NOT taken into consieration. I honestly don’t know how they are conserving the star, might be because of the kitchen. Congratulations on the chef and everyone involved on preparing the food, that was 10 out of 10. More than that, I had a best experience of the nonna preparing pasta the night before. But I got an email to give feedback online so this is it, I wanted to make it less public but here we are. I would definitely come back for the food and the view, not the experience.

I had the best dining experience here in Rome and absolutely loved the lobster risotto — it was rich, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The wine pairing was outstanding and elevated every course. On top of that, dining with a view of the Colosseum made the evening unforgettable. A truly remarkable experience that I would recommend to anyone visiting Rome.

Wonderful fine dining experience with veiw of the coliseum. Very expensive but worth every euro. Set menus are available. I had the tastes of seafood. Very accommodating to my wife as she chose various items from different set options. Food amazing! Staff amazing! Location amazing!

This was my favorite Michelin experience! Pablo, Diego, and especially Frederico were incredible company, experts in their craft and making the experience more than we could have ever asked for. They treated us like absolute royalty. The food was so elevated yet so homey. I would eat any of the dishes again and again. We will come back when we are in Rome again!

The Manfredi Hotel is amazing!! We loved dining and staying at this hotel.. The views are stunning the service was great and the food was very good. It was our first time in Italy, I would definitely revisit Aroma Restaurant.

Likely the best dining experience I've enjoyed. We choose the creative menu featuring imaginative, beautiful and amazingly delicious plates. Dishes celebrate more than just flavor, with combinations of texture and variety of temperatures superimposed in a single bite. Every single member of the staff made us feel welcome. They took interest, shared stories and laughed with us. Book early and request a window view, with a panorama of Rome. Thank you, chef Antonini, for sharing your passion throughout dinner and your gracious tableside greetings.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wonderful experience, view, and overall value for this Michelin-rated restaurant. We tried the more experimental “Error13” menu that shifts by the seasons and includes many more courses/dishes with smaller portions. While a couple of the 12+ dishes had flavor combinations that didn’t hit 100% for me, I still thought it was a fantastic experience that delivered completely on the promise of experimentation and untraditional takes on Roman classics. The service was friendly, knowledgeable, and approachable, unlike other Michelin experiences I’ve had. And the atmosphere was not stuffy at all - modern stylish flair where the view over the city was primary focus. Can’t wait to visit Rome again to try their traditional tasting menu!

Rome, the eternal city welcomes you with a floating mixture of it‘s antique past and it’s rich and cosy present. A place to enjoy life to its fullest. And both metaphorically and literally the Michelin Star Restaurant Imàgo represents these values on the Top of the city. Having the opportunity to test there brand new autumn menu 2025/2026 it became quite clear what Chef Andrea Antonini means by destroying and rebuilding and by error as basis of evolution. After selecting a 9 station wine pairing a firework of taste, smell and enjoyment started that seemed to be eternal like the city itself. Some of the 9 wines were paired with more than one course. Wow what an experience. Such a careful mastered menu was of course presented by an extraordinary service transporting the love and the passion that went into the creation of this beautiful composition in a perfect manner. A perfect night presented by Imàgo, a night to remember - eternally.

Located on top of a fancy hotel with a long tradition of famous people passing through. A stunning view of the city and sunset. Proper attire required. But not stuffy. The atmosphere is a mix of high class very attentive service, and friendly conversation. The staff were just the right amount of engaging and interested in feedback. We planned to get the classic menu, it looked the best on the website when we booked months ago. But they recently introduced a new summer menu. Upon inspection it was a no brainier to switch. Things like lobster and corn, pasta with lavender, sea cucumber and rabbit leaped out and caught my attention. They encourage you to take pictures, feel free to move about the dining room. Again: stunning view. The first and last things I noticed about the experience was my comfort. The chairs are captains chairs. Comfortable for both leaning back and taking in the view, and for leaning forward and dining. The dining experience started with the feeling of being wooed. Champagne cart, three Amuse Buche. One of which was plain and simple focaccia with tomato and basil. It looked just like what you find at every corner store and local restaurant in Italy. For this reason it stood out. And it tasted like having this dish for the first time. Like the best Italian food, it was simple but perfectly made. The new menu has four "Acts". In total, counting the "Sweet Cart" from which I was offered unlimited access, the entire meal consisted of 26 courses. We were warned in advance that the food would come relatively quickly from course-to-course. This sounded ok. And for my taste it worked perfectly. No lulls in the action or my palete. Also, not a single large dish. This approach gets a lot of points from me. My favorite dishes were the sorrel, almond and blueberry salad and the 'summer salad' which elevated the bar early on. Then the raw sweet prawn with apple and perfectly carved out, marinated lettuce pieces. The raw beef was to die for, but I recommend eating it without the Bearnaise sauce or only a tiny bit at first, otherwise you might miss the delicate beef flavor wonders. The rabbit ravioli was a risky maneuver from the chef, with carrot and ginger, balancing a hint of Asian flavor against classic pasta. It paid off. The one that stole my heart and surprised me the most was the 10-year aged Parmesan pasta dish with pollen (from Bees). I never knew pasta could have so much Umami (and without a single mushroom or cured pork piece). There were only 2 of 26  I was not impressed with. The spaghetti with figs offered a sweet surprise, but the lavender and basil were bitter and the sweet and bitter did not get along for me. A daring experiment worth trying, but maybe not quite right. I noticed that the table next to us did not like theirs. Then the lobster with sweetcorn. I was really excited to see this on the menu - two of my favorite ingredients, and the popcorn pineapple juice I had already had me excited about corn themed dishes. But it simply failed for me. This perfect piece of lobster tail with a delicate crispy batter was lost in a creamy sauce that not only did not fit, I did not taste like sweetcorn. It has a mustard like note that was not complementing the lobster. On the side was a delicious little sandwich bite, but whose main flavor was onion. Lobster plus onion plus not exactly sweet corn.... just did not gel with my palate. I'm offering my least favorite items as constructive feedback, because everything else about the food was more like a two Michelin star experience and flavors. Very high caliber dining. I just want to mention that I think that 20 Euro per juice - even with brilliantly creative flavors like pineapple popcorn - is too high. I only realized when the check came that I added 80 Euro just by drinking four wine-glass sized juices. Overall I am so glad I visited this restaurant. It was a full experience with fantastic service. The wine list was longer than a work of Shakespeare. Kudos to you.

I was really looking forward to dining at Imàgo — a Michelin-starred restaurant with a stunning location in the heart of Rome. The view is, indeed, beautiful. But unfortunately, the overall experience didn’t match the expectations that come with this kind of reputation and price point. Service felt formal to the point of being distant. Staff were efficient, but cold — we didn’t feel welcomed or cared for. At one point, we politely asked if we could move to a table with a better view (we weren’t told it required a special request when booking), and the response was a flat and emotionless “no.” Not even an attempt to explain or empathize. The food was good, but not exceptional. Nothing stood out in flavor or concept — and certainly not enough to make up for the lack of warmth. The whole evening felt more like we were attending a high-priced ritual than enjoying a memorable meal. If you're going for the view, it delivers. If you're going for a complete fine dining experience with heart and hospitality — there are better places in Rome, even without a star.

The best experience I’ve ever had in a restaurant. The food was art and tasted delicious. The waiters were amazing and I couldn’t have asked for more. View was amazing up there and there isn’t many tables in the restaurant so it felt more intimate and allowed the waiters to constantly be at your service. They’d talk to you and have conversations for you while you’re waiting for your food which wasn’t long at all, very informative and knowledgable people. Highly recommend. Men do have to have a suit jacket but this can be provided for you by the restaurant.

We had an amazing experience at Imago. Chef Andrea Antonini really pulls out all the stops for an incredible dining masterpiece. His various influences and wide varieties of flavors, creative dishes, and use of the highest quality ingredients from local farms allowed us to experience food , art and Rome all at once. The flavors and textures of his food are carefully curated and the menu changes every 6 months. The chef and staff were also very accommodating to my wife who cannot eat seafood. The service is impeccable with attention to detail and ensuring you have the best experience. Lastly, the restaurant is located at the top level of the hotel Hassler, above the Spanish steps. The backdrop of the Rome skyline at sunset made the night magical. Highly recommend and this was the best Michelin starred restaurant I have visited. For the amount of food, exquisite presentation, flavor, and variety that you get, every euro was well spent.

This 2-star Michelin restaurant, a MEMBER OF LES GRANDES TABLES DU MONDE, truly impressed us. We opted for a 14-course meal with wine and alcohol pairing, and it was an incredible experience! To start with we had a restaurant within restaurant experience having the whole room all to ourselves. The food was so creatively presented and unlike anything that we’ve ever tasted anywhere else in the world dinner lasted almost 4 hours and it was such a beautiful experience.

We visited Il Pagliaccio on a whim while in Rome, and the experience did not disappoint. We chose the 10 course Circus tasting option with the wine pairing. Each dish was unique and beautifully presented. The dishes ranged from unique and interesting to truly exceptional. A few standouts were the tortella, duck, and greens desert, but every dish perfectly complemented the experience. The wine pairings were also quite good, and the variation between was thoughtful and well timed. The service was also of the highest quality, and the staff was very attentive and professional. The experience was finished off with a departing gift from the chef and staff, which was a nice touch.

Excellent meal, will definitely repeat. We had the 16 plate Parallels experience and the food was reliable delicious, imaginative, and well executed. The service was very friendly and professional. There was one failure: we specified no mussels for one of our guests and a player arrived with mussels, we pointed this out and they brought a new plate, which also had a mussel! Finally they brought a third plate with no mussels, but the sauce still tasted of mussels so it was unclear if they had been used in the preparation. The waitress apologised but when you potentially put somebody's life in danger you should make more of an apology. Own up to your mistakes. That said, the rest of the experience was excellent.

Good experience. We did the 10-course tasting menu, with 3-wine pairing. 3 wines option was a great option, not too much but well fitting the menu. Food was good in general, but sometimes you need to be open-minded and be a bit adventurous. Service was excellent matched the Michelin stars rating. The farewell gift was a nice gesture.

This is not a typical restaurant. The food was so inspired and so many flavors. Every dish was an explosion of flavor more intense than the last. We had the circus 10 course tasting menu - my absolute favorite was the tortellini with duck inside. But everything they brought on the tasting menu was exceptional. The service is so top notch and the experience is so worth the price. You will leave both satisfied and happy! So many interesting techniques used and flavor combinations introduced. The reimagining of cacao e Pepe was wild.

Best meal I have ever had, I opted for the 10 course lunch on my first vacation in Rome, and man was it worth it. The servics was on point, the food was perfectly seasoned and cooked, but most importantly they did an amazing job of telling a story and making it an experience for the diner. They did a great job at really letting the quality of ingredients speak for themselves while still having a sense of wonder and creativity. If I could rate 10 stars I would. There’s a reason they have 2 Michelin stars, I don’t know when the next time I’ll get a chance to come back to Rome but when I do I know I’ll be back.

Somewhat underwhelming. We did the 10-course tasting menu - the food was great. Service is impeccable, peaceful ambience. We asked for wine pairing but somehow no such option was offered/available so this really diminished the experience. The sommelier just gave us this extensive book of wines. The pauses between some of the dishes were quite lengthy and it took some time to get the bill. The farewell gift was a nice gesture but fairly bland.

Very nice street for shpping all the brands

About my experience in my life is that I have experience the love of almighty God and his favour and also his mercy and his grace please everyone allover the world if any of you want to experience grace, mercy and love and everlasting life according to the promises of our lord Jesus Christ superstar God of almighty you have to keep on loving one another no matter what you are facing in life please don't give up by stopping loving one another if you have that can of love you will be the happiest man and you will be the best of your self because a Man without happiness in life is nothing not by having everything in this world is happening but by having him which at in heaven,,,,,, this is all about my experience,,,,,, God bless us

Very nice street!

It is a beautiful serpentine sloping street that starts (or ends) at Porta Pinciana and ends (or starts) at Piazza Barberini.

An elegant neighborhood.

A nice enough street to wander down. Had lots of fun lobster statues. They are at the Porta Pinciana end of the street.

In the rich part of town..

A very nice street for a walk. Typical Rome street and a couple of art works.

One of the most quite and photogenic street just parallel to all crowd. The whole street smells jasmin in spring.

Beautiful little street

Very nice, atmospheric alley, parallel to main road. If you want to escape crowds and breathe freely for a minute - it’s waiting for you.

Quieter than the other main streets

was fine to take a stroll down but nothing really of importance or exciting

Such a cool street to walk down in Rome. Beautiful buildings and very quiet. It makes for a nice walk to get away from the crowds.

As a librarian, I felt compelled to visit this fountain, but I must admit I was somewhat disappointed. It appeared a bit unkempt and could benefit from a thorough cleaning. That said, it remains a charming location to visit, offering a picturesque setting despite its maintenance issues.

One of the pretty offbeat fountains in Rome. Its good to visit there and see it. I suggest when you visit Piazza Navona go and take a look at it as it's different from the regular drinking fountains in Rome.

Interesting, different, that's about it. There are so many of these "quirky" fountains that they can be formed into an overall more interesting quest.

Fontana dei Libri, Rome: A Literary Delight! 📚💦 Tucked away near Sapienza University, the charming Fountain of the Books is a whimsical gem! Featuring sculpted books, a deer head, and a scroll, it's a unique and delightful tribute to knowledge. 🤓 Less grand than others, but its intricate details and quiet location make it truly special. A lovely, unexpected find for book lovers & curious explorers! ✨🇮🇹 So enchanting!

One of the more artistic looking public water fountains in Rome. Water was coming out smoothly too and no weird iron or pee-like taste too like some other fountains. It's funny we have these free fountains everywhere in Rome, apparently more than 2,500 operating ones today, but restaurants don't give out free water.

Fountain of the Books provides drinking water. I had some water. These photos were taken on November 26, 2024.

After Pantheon, you can drink water here ❤️

It was a nice garden, however it needs to be more taken care off. It has an automatic toilet that costs 1,5€ and can be payed with card (this is also the same at villa Borghese) Also, there is a man that uses to ponies to pull a small wagon for children.

Villa Celimontana is probably the only place in the world where you can see an Egyptian obelisk surrounded by blooming cherry trees Quiet, great for picnic.

Beautiful park in middle of the city near to the colosseum.

Very nice garden, you should definitely check it out!

For the majority of my last two months in Rome I've ventured out here on either Saturday or a Sunday for their summer concerts. Starting around 1 pm on weekends, the stage ws occupied by a variety of singers and bands from Jazz, to 30's music, to Italian songs and good old Rock n roll. Plenty of seating with shade, a bar where you could order a pizza or a hamburger and a drink for 15 Euros and listen to an hour and a half of live music from some time in June all the way to mid September. They had bands at night on weekends as well but I couldn't make it to any of those. There is a park like grounds with benches and shade as well. The entrance is free. Check out the Saint Stefano rotundo church across the street on your wya out.

Villa Celimontana is probably the only place in the world where you can see an Egyptian obelisk surrounded by blooming cherry trees

I accidentally arrived there with my lovely girlfriend because I trusted her to guide us to the Basilic Santa Maria. Turns out it was the wrong one but I won't blame her. The park was a very nice surprise and very calm. You will not be able to access the Basilic at the entrance of the park. Please note that all of the statues have been beheaded

Lots of walking to get up to top. We were lucky to have had good weather. Didn't spend long there though and not a busy area

Right next to the Altare Della Patria (Altar of the Fatherland) is the Capitoline Hill. Outside, you’ll see a bronze statue of Marcus Aerelius. The Capitoline Hill is one of the seven hills of Rome. It’s worth climbing to the top of the hill via Michelangelo’s steps and admiring the Roman Forum for free.

One of the magnificent squares in Rome. I definitely think you should go on the road and take a tour of the square. However, for those who will stay in Rome for 2-3 nights, it would be better to be careful to spend more time. Since it is close to the Colosseum, it would be logical to stop by on the road after visiting there.

Impressive! Enjoyed all the rich history of Rome! The museum here was as good as any we visited during our entire stay. Their restaurant inside was good as well.

It's a short walk up the sloping stairs of the Capitoline Hills to reach the square designed by Michelangelo. Has the Capitoline museums, the Aurelius statue, Rome city hall and a view over the ruins like arch of Septimius, Basilica of Julia etc

Right next to the Altare Della Patria (Altar of the Fatherland), is the Capitoline Hill. Outside you will see the bronze statue of Marcus Aerelius (somewhat waving how great he is or how gracious and loving he is to his people).

Unfortunately when we visited it had scaffolding all over it so it was difficult to see any of the structure

One in a lifetime experience!. What I was expecting was another basic audio tour and no stops. Once we got there, we were greeted and since we did the Self driving experience he had us drive down the street and back to make sure we were able to handle the Vespa alone. We were able to get every major scenic view and be able to stop to take pictures. I would recommend this to anyone.

Best Morning ever, this experience was worth every dollar our riders had the best knowledge, were fun, and their riding skills were unreal. The BEST way to discover Rome. .. we didn't want our time to end. Thank you for a wonderful time. Highly recommend Vespa Tour of Rome.. many thanks Jodie and Sonia from Australia 🇦🇺

Our Vespa tour of Rome was an absolutely unforgettable experience! There’s no better way to see the city than zipping through its streets on a classic Vespa. The ride itself was exhilarating, allowing us to take in the sights and sounds of Rome in a unique and thrilling way. Having Francesco as our guide was a real treat! His blend of insightful commentary and comedic flair kept us entertained throughout the tour. His knowledge of Rome’s history and hidden gems made each stop even more fascinating. And then there was Antonio—shouting his name became a fun and memorable part of our adventure! This tour provided memories we will never forget. The combination of the scenic ride, the fantastic company, and the lively atmosphere made it a highlight of our trip. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience Rome in an exciting and unforgettable way!

We had an awesome time zipping about Rome with Francesco. We saw a lot of great spots in a perfect amount of time. We would do this again! GRAZIE

An amazing and super-fun experience! Francesco is super funny and knows how to verbalize the information about Rome in a simple and memorable way! Driving on the Vespa itself through the streets of Rome is also an amazing experience. I would definitely recommend everyone to take this tour at the beginning of their trip to Rome because you really get to meet Rome from all sides and you get a nice introduction for many monuments and places that you can later explore in more details if interested! All in all, this tour was one of the highlights of our amazing trip to Rome.

This Vespa Tour of Rome with Francesco was one of the highlights of the Rome trip! We got to see / spend a little time at all the major sites, felt like we got a good lay of the land, and learned a ton. Francesco has the best personality, is so fun, and sang to me the whole time we were en route to each stop 🤣 we absolutely loved and highly recommend!

The absolute highlight of our trip. Our guide Francesco (I think that was his name, I’m so sorry if I’m wrong!) was so informative, friendly and fun. Our second driver, Max, was so knowledgeable on getting around Rome, and we had the best time. Getting to see Rome as you whizz past was such a great memory. Highly recommend! Thank you both!

I was in Roma for a short stay and came across this Oasis in the middle of the Romanian city center. And Wow wow wow , oh My God. never seen this before, Shisha plated 24k gold feel like a dream , high standard service excellent quality and tasty Shiha. Even Haven’t had the best experience in Dubai compared to Sunset Shisha lounge . Shisha-man was very professional and helpful , Even helped us pick a great flavor. Highly recommended! Don't miss out

Once you are in Rome, don’t miss to have the best experience at Sunset shisha lounge. Great service, best shisha and affordable prices versus quality and hospitality you will receive. Shisha man was exceptional. Experience to be repeated.

This was the best hookah experience I’ve ever had and I’m from Atlanta so that says a lot lol. Naho was an amazing host! We came as he was closing but he still allowed us to come in and have a good time! He made us a tasty Mojito and Japanese Slipper along with a Love 66 & Blackberry hookah!! If you visit Rome you absolutely have to come to this spot!!

Best Shisha/Hookah drinks ever in Rome, big thanks to Agostino and Issa for the great advice and service, very professional, highly recommended!

Amazing shisha and comfortable to sit and relax But one of the waiters was not professional and kindly rude . Manger and another waiter were amazing :)

I've been arround in all shisha (hookah) bars in ROME but Nothing to compare with this unique atmosphere , they raised the standards very high in ROME

I live in Germany where we have many options when it comes to Shisha but Sunset Shisha Lounge really went beyond all expectations! The quality of the Shisha, the cocktails and the elegant ambiance were top! Thank you Dalilah for recommending this place!
