Is it free to go into St Peter’s Basilica and Vatican City?
Visiting St Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City is free, but it comes with a price — long queues. You can expect to wait up to two hours before entering the Basilica.
How many days are enough for Vatican City?
The answer depends on your preferences and how much time you have available. If you only have half a day, you can still see some of the main attractions such as St. Peter’s Basilica and the museums. However, if you want to explore more of what the city has to offer, then it’s best to set aside at least one full day for your visit. This will give you enough time to take in all of the sights and sounds that make Vatican City so special.
Can you spend the night in Vatican City?
Unfortunately, you cannot spend the night in Vatican City. The city closes and there are no hotels or restaurants available for tourists to stay overnight.

Finding the best apartments in Rome is difficult, and deciding where to stay in Rome is no easy feat, especially with its 22 rioni or districts to choose from. Each neighborhood has a distinct personality, price tag, and atmosphere to consider when picking your temporary home. In this guide, we will help you decide on an area that best suits your style and offer you apartment accommodation vetted by our travel experts.

Where To Stay in Rome: Best Apartments
My first apartment in Rome was a tiny 170 square feet. Space is at a premium in the city. But if you are traveling as a group or prefer an apartment’s vibe over a hotel (I know I do), let me show you some of Rome’s best holiday rental apartments.
There’s something for every budget here, from studios to penthouses, covering many of Rome’s rioni (neighborhoods). Be sure to check out our articles on Rome. We have complete neighborhood guides, the best restaurants, and everything you need to make the most of your time in Rome.

Piazza Navona and Pantheon
Rome’s most enchanting neighborhood is centered around the Baroque-style Piazza Navona. This area is a sensory overload of beauty, from well-kept Renaissance architecture to impressive fountains. This is a great area for an apartment rental. Try to go for a top floor or a place with a terrace. You’re right in the thick of things, so you’ll get amazing views of the hundreds of churches in the center.
Best Apartments Near Piazza Navona/Pantheon:
Apartamento a castel sant’ angelo con terrazza.
€€€ | 4 Bedroom | Sleeps 10 | Amazing Terrace Are you planning that big family getaway? Well, with four bedrooms, this is the perfect spot. The rooms are spacious and modern. The Kitchens and bathrooms are a little dated but clean, and this is Rome; how much time will you spend in the kitchen? The showstopper is the balcony with unrivaled views of Castel Sant’Angelo; I’d stay here just for that.
Location, photos, and booking
Governo Vecchio
€€€ | 2 Bedroom | Sleeps 6 | Great Location Via Governo Vecchio will compete in any ‘most beautiful streets of Rome’ list, and this apartment keeps up those standards. An intoxicating blend of ancient architecture and modern design makes this a wonderful place to stay for couples, groups, or families.
Dimora San Bartolomeo
€€ | 1 Bedroom | Sleeps 3 | Recently Renovated A relative newcomer, having opened in late 2022, this beautifully designed apartment in the center of Rome is a great place to set your base. Use the home gym/pilates unit to stretch out those aches and pains after a long day of exploring.
Not ready to book a tour? Check out our best Rome tours to take and why .
Spanish Steps
With the Trevi fountain and Spanish steps both in this area, it is an excellent place for the first-time traveler to get a feel for the city. Widely considered one of Rome’s most beautiful neighborhoods, Spagna is upmarket and a shopper’s dream.
You can check out our complete guide to Spagna here
Best Apartments Near Spanish Steps and Trevi Fountain:
€€€ | Studio to 3 Bedroom | Sleeps 2-8
Incentrum offers several apartments across two buildings. They range from studios to three-bedroom apartments. All come with Kitchenette and all the amenities you could want, but the larger apartments with rooftop terraces are perfect for those group holidays.
Amazin Penthouse Piazza Venezia
€€€€€ | 4 Bedroom | Sleeps 8 | Amazing Views
The only problem here? You probably won’t want to leave! One picture barely seems enough o do this apartment justice. We could start with the all-glass living room with views of the Vittoriano. Or Maybe the modern and spacious bedrooms? I think the best option is the roof terrace. With enough seating for the whole family, great shade, a hot tub, and amazing views, it will never be easier to take a quiet day and just stay in.
Residenza Napoleone III
€€€€ | 2 Bedroom | Sleeps 4 | Historical Palace
Located in the historical Palazzo Ruspoli and, in 1830, the home to Napoleon III. This is the perfect place for history buffs or anyone who ever wanted to live like an emperor. The Napoleonic suite is the star attraction here, but I’ll be honest at almost half of the price, you’ll equally love the rooftop garden suite. Though be aware this is not easily accessible for those with mobility issues.
Vivilo Roma Trevi
€€€ |1 Bedroom| Sleeps 4 | No Kids | Romantic
Children under ten aren’t permitted at Vivilo Roma, but that’s ok because this spot is probably too small for a family. But its sleek and sexy decor and rooftop hot tub make this a perfect spot for a romantic weekend.

This tour enters the Vatican an hour before opening and visits the Colosseum along with other sites like the Pantheon, Piazza Navona, and Trevi Fountain.

A hipster hotspot, Monti is filled with artists and Romans lucky enough to inherit apartments along the pastel-colored streets. Despite the fact that Monti borders Rome’s major tourist attractions like the Colosseum , the neighborhood is a quiet treasure.
The word Monti translates as “mountains.” The area was home to four of the seven famous hills that once made up the city of Rome. I f your idea of a good time is exploring vintage stores and hitting up funky bars, consider staying in Monti. Here are our picks for where to stay in Rome near the Colosseum in Monti. Discover more about this cool area in our Monti neighborhood guide.
Best Apartments Near Monti:
Laterano charme.
€€ | 1bed | Sleeps 4 | Recently renovated
Located a hundred yards from the Basilica San Clemente and its famous archaeological ruins, and less than 500 yards from the Colosseum, this is a great location for those wanting to be in the thick of it. This recently renovated apartment offers stunningly beautiful raw architectural details, with vaulted brick ceilings that give way to a private courtyard. Great for small families or couples.
Restart Accommodations Colosseum
€€€ | 1-3 Bedroom | Sleeps 2-8 | Colosseum views
This collection of apartments comes with a great location and clean and spacious rooms. The multi-room apartments come with terraces and Colosseum views. Located just a few hundred yards from the Colosseum, the apartments are in an area of Monti less associated with bars and so offer a peaceful respite for those not wanting to be in the very center of things.
Roof Suite Rome
€€€€ | 3 Bedrooms | Sleeps 6 | Roman Luxury
Photos don’t do this apartment justice. With a name like Roof Suite, you’d be right to guess that this apartment has a wonderful terrace, and of course, it doesn’t, but look at that bedroom! The interior decor is staggering here, but the prices match. The apartment starts at €2000 per night, but hey, it sleeps 6, so what’s a few grand divided by friends? Well, not my friends anyway, it’s hard enough to get them to buy a round of drinks.
Tips for Apartments Near Monti:
Monti is a bustling neighborhood. Try to find an apartment on a back street in this area. These are referred to as Vicolo in Italian, which means “little street.” Piazza della Madonna dei Monti is a great square to get a drink and sit at the fountain. If you’re on a budget, you can buy from the store and sit outside, which is legal.

Trastevere, which means “beyond the Tiber,” is a charming, bohemian neighborhood. With a buzzing nightlife for tourists and locals alike, the atmosphere is hip and social for sure.
It’s filled with a plethora of independent shops and great spots for food and drink. In fact, our best Rome food tour takes place right here, exploring the best local cuisine in the area.
Stay here if your idea of a perfect neighborhood is more off-beat than glamorous, and you enjoy a lively and friendly atmosphere with picturesque cobblestone streets. Find out more about this great part of Rome in our Trastevere neighborhood guide .
Best Apartments in Trastevere:
Il nascondiglio del prete.
€€€ | 1 Bedroom | Sleeps 4| Great Terrace
Another relative newcomer on the Roman holiday market, but it’s an apartment I know well as it’s a close friend’s old apartment. Now she only rented it, so there’s no bias from me in terms of trying to drum up business for her, but I do know that wonderful terrace and spent many an evening with a bottle of wine enjoying golden hour in Rome. It was great then, and unless the sun is somehow different, it will be great now.
Romantic Trastevere Home
€€ | 1 Bed | Sleeps 4 | Serene
Another apartment I know personally; in fact, I lived under this apartment for five years. Even cooler, The Roman Guy was founded in the communal courtyard of this block. So forget about living like a Roman, if you want to live like the Roman Guy, then this is the place for you. This apartment block is a piece of history, ours and Rome’s
Tips for Apartments in Trastevere:
There are a few hotels in Trastevere, but the area is really dominated by apartment rentals. Avoid staying on roads like Vicolo del Cinque, Piazza Trilusa, or Piazza S. M. in this neighborhood unless you are ok with noise until late. These areas are overflowing with people year-round, and closing your windows won’t always work to silence the busy streets.
If you want to be near the action but not quite in the thick of it, the best area to stay in is between Viale di Trastevere, Tiber Island, Porto di Ripa Grande, and Via di Porta Portese—basically, anywhere within three or four blocks of Via della Lungarina.

Prati and Vatican City
Across from Vatican City lies Prati, a calm, elegant, and modern Roman neighborhood. It’s perfect for anyone planning a religious trip or for groups of senior travelers who might encounter trouble with old buildings without elevators. Prati is one of Rome’s best-kept secrets, and we have the best suggestions for where to stay in Rome near Vatican City.
This is also one of the few districts in Rome that isn’t overrun by tourism. This is surprising because some of the most iconic places to visit, like the Vatican and St. Peter’s Basilica, are located right here.
The neighborhood doesn’t look like your typical postcard of Rome, but thanks to its modern European vibes and high-end shopping street, Via Cola di Rienzo, it isn’t lacking in charm.
Best Apartments Near Prati:
Sonder at prati lungotevere.
€€€€ | Studios to 3 Bedrooms | Sleeps 2-8 | Family Friendly
Located a block down from Piazza Cavour, these apartments are clean, spacious, and modern. The Sonders app makes online check-in a breeze; even requesting clean linen, extra towels, or whatever you need can be done at the simple click of a button.
Tips for Apartments in Prati Near the Vatican:
With over 700 hotels, the Prati district has a ton of choices. You can get lower prices here and good value, but you’re not going to be in the classic Roman part of the city. This area was heavily modernized by Benito Mussolini—for better or worse.
You will find some great apartments, but watch out for apartments on high floors with no elevators (or lifts). It is more common than you would think, and people often assume all buildings will have an elevator. They don’t! Welcome to Italy!
