From Historic Sites to the Latest Cultural Exhibitions
The layers of history in Italy’s capital city can surprise you. Many 2,000-year-old archaeological sites, awe-inspiring churches, palazzos, and art museums with renaissance paintings and sculptures await.
Visit the Colosseum, Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, Via Veneto, Piazza Navona, and the white “wedding cake” monument in Piazza Venezia. Check out UNESCO World Heritage Sites, like the Roman Forum, Palatine Hill, the Pantheon, St. Peter’s Basilica, the Sistine Chapel, and the Vatican Museum.
Don’t miss the Borghese Gallery, the Bernini Statues, Palazzo Colonna and Garden, the Church of St. Clemente, or an opera staged in the Baths of Caracalla.
If you crave something more current, check out the Museum of Modern & Contemporary Art or the unique seasonal exhibitions at the Scuderie del Quirinale or Palazzo Barberini.
Culinary Paradise
Whether you’re a sophisticated foodie or just love great cuisine and wine, Rome is your city. Wander the streets of Monti, Testaccio, or Trastevere and feast on regional dishes in charming local eateries. A bowl of spaghetti carbonara, suppli al telefono, or carciofi alla giudia will convince you that calories just don’t matter.
From street food to Michelin-starred restaurants, pizza to salads, gelato to pastries, you’ll be spoiled with choice. You’ll even find vegetarian and gluten-free options on some menus. If an aperol spritz or prosecco on a rooftop café with a view is more your style, let us know! Your on-site host at Casale Sonnino can make recommendations and reservations.
Shopper's Haven
There’s no shortage of shopping options in Rome. For an upscale experience, the renowned European luxury brands are in the streets fanning out from the Piazza di Spagna. The streets connecting the Via del Corso to the Pantheon to Piazza Argentina to Campo di Fiori is where you’ll find stores to fit a variety of styles and budgets.
Or, explore the city’s trendy shopping and nightlife districts of Monti, Piazza Navona, and charming Trastevere. Here you can find one-of-a-kind boutiques and relax with a cappuccino in a street-side cafe. Home cooks will love the glass-roofed Testaccio Market, which sits on a Roman archeological site. It’s filled with over 100 bakeries, produce and cheese stalls, and butchers. This is the place for picking up the best Italian goodies to prepare in the Casale’s kitchen.
