Staying in a bed and breakfast in Rome can mean being miles away from beautiful tourist destinations you want to visit, because Rome is a huge metropolis and not always its parts are easily accessible from the periphery.
You surely will not have this problem, if you choose to stay at one of our bed and breakfasts in Trastevere all with air conditioning, private bathroom and breakfast.
Trastevere has always been a very important part of the city of Rome just after the birth of the city, which according to popular legend was founded by Romulus in 753 BC. The area was taken from the Etruscans who lived there for strategic reasons, as it was needed to defend both banks of the Tiber.
Later it became one of the most important trade and fishing points of the whole city, inhabited mostly by Jews and Syrians.
In imperial times Augustus named the area "regio trans tiberina", hence today's "Trastevere".
Many personalities of this area built here their homes, including Julius Caesar.
It is in the Middle Ages that Trastevere finally took the aspect that we can still admire: an intricate network of streets covered with paving stones that bring you to beautiful squares.
Don't miss the view from Salita Sant'Onofrio: From here you will experience the thrill of admiring one of the most beautiful landscapes in the world towards the dome of St. Peter.
Today Trastevere is also a festive neighborhood full of life thanks to the many restaurants, pubs and nightclubs.
The ancient and popular atmosphere of Trastevere is still alive and in perfect harmony with modern influences, creating an ideal and layered architecture with the rest of beautiful neighborhoods of Rome.
