Trastevere |
Rome accommodation. Trastevere: The
new vie boheme in the Eternal city.
Just as Montmartre in Paris an Soho in London, Trastevere
is more than an area of the city of Rome: it’s
a culture, a lifestyle, an attitude. It used to be the truly folk
area of the Eternal City, its real and ancient soul.
Now things are changed but it has not lost its charm.
Trastevere,
especially in the last century, became the place to be for every kind
of artist, as it usually happens to beautiful and tiny areas in cities
all over the world. In the very last years, the situation is changed
once again and a radical chic attitude has been added to the original
bohemian feeling. An international and national intellectual elite
and jet set people live there now dividing the streets with regular
inhabitants and old style artists. The result is an unusual complexity
that makes Trastevere area one of the most desirable place for you
to find an accommodation while you’re visiting Rome.
If you’re into this neo-bohemian way of life, if you dream about
staying in a tiny apartment located in an old typical Italian building,
but yet clean, comfortable and fully equipped, Trastevere
is where you want to look for it. You will also be able to find the
perfect bed & breakfast here or a room in one of its welcoming
guest houses. The few 2 and 3 stars hotels
in the Trastevere area are not located in huge buildings because
they have been naturally set in the already existing typical architectonic
style, so that you won’t eve feel as a guest: walking out the
door every morning, walking those narrow and picturesque streets where
only a few cars can pass by, it will make you feel at home but at
the same time in another world.
Everything is alive here, and everything is mixed: a typical Italian
pizza al taglio shop (selling pizza slices) close to a modern internet
point, an high tech designed wine bar next to a fruit stand that seems
it has been there for centuries.
For all these reasons, if you have decided to book
your hotel in Rome, Trastevere is the perfect
place for a long or short staying for those who likes to be surrounded
by artistry but with a touch of glamour and it's also a tremendously
central location, close to all Rome sightseeing musts. |
