About this property

At the Coliseum, ExtraLarge Vacation Home Away from Home, in the centre of Rome

Not just a "plus", for us your health and safety are a "must".
We certify that on check out the sanitization of each room, surfaces and machinary is carried out with a sanifitizing product based on hydrogen peroxide (biocidal activity).
All the rooms have recently been equipped with a brand new, efficient and high-performing Daikin air conditioning system. The whole property, among other things, has been recently totally renewed! New floor, best comfort and brand new bathrooms.
Established in 2009 and located in the heart of Rome, just an easy five-minute walk from the magnificent surroundings of the Coliseum, you will find our large and newly developed property. The property, consists of two portions of the same apartment with two independent entrances but also communicating through an internal door (according with the privacy needed you can chose if keep the door locked). Watch the video between the pictures! The property is on the ground floor of an antique and distinguished palace which can only be described as quiet and peaceful – with the benefit of a doorman at your service!
Some years ago, I had conceived of this idea to be able to offer two communicating apartments adjacent and united in the most splendid historical district of Rome just a hop, skip, and a jump away from the Coliseum and Roman Forum. I am so pleased to be able to say that now we can offer it you! This large and spacious vacation home has been built to make everyone feel at home and yet still have the sense of being in a different city buzzing with culture and history.
However, what makes this property unique isn’t just its size or location, but also its accessibility. Since the property is located on the ground floor it is great for the elderly or physically challenged. More importantly it is wheelchair accessible, which is very rare in Rome.
The two real-estate portions, while having separate entrances, are located next to one another being only divided by a wall and connected by an internal door! Although, they both share access to the same Roman courtyard which has an antique and traditional look. In total the property is about 180 meters (2000 square feet) in size and is equipped with a modern kitchen, high quality cookware, dining table (it is situated in the bigger portion, is extendable seating twelve), refrigerator with freezer, microwave, oven, high-quality steel cutlery, wine glasses, dishwasher, and even a washing machine.
Available for all of our guests a total of five bedrooms, two of which are accessible to those who are disabled, and one single bedroom(or according to your needs four double bedrooms and one triple), all equipped with lcd Tv, led lighting system, timed air extractors, air conditioning, high efficiency heating system with radiators and clean linen sheets and top-level comfortable and hypoallergenic mattresses for a good night’s sleep. At your disposal on your beds also hypoallergenic duvets of excellent italian quality.
Four bathrooms(one of which is large, 100% wheelchair accessible equipped with large flat shower, showerchair, grabrails) complete with toilets, sinks, four showers and environmentally-friendly gas boiler for hot water production. Also two modern sofa-beds are there and also available in the apartment a baby cot. All bedrooms and living rooms possess professional air conditioning system and timed air extractors, making it comfortable for all. Hygiene and cleanliness have always been of big importance to me and so I personally make sure that every room is immaculate
For your use would also be one living room with modern furniture designed in Italy. The room is equipped with an LCD TV, and even a well-stocked international library. You’ll also find LED lighting, timed air extractors, air-conditioning, heating system with radiators and most importantly WiFi.
As mentioned before there is a doorman located at the entrance of the property throughout the day and night who is able to provide assistance to guests as needed, accommodate daily reception, as well as ensuring security for the building. We pride ourselves in the peace of mind that this affords our guests – especially with the added benefit of being in such a historic district!
We invite families, couples, or groups to stay with us because between the two united portions we can accommodate up to 12 people. This unique location promises to make your stay both enjoyable and memorable. You won’t have to worry about transportation between two different metro (subway) stops, as well as bus stops, which are vary in distance from being right outside the building or a short walk through the neighborhood.
THE ENTIRE PROPERTY IS OFFICIALLY AUTHORIZED AND LICENSED BY THE MUNCIPALITY OF ROME AND PROVIDED WITH INSURANCE, ALL THE SAFETY EQUIPMENT AND HYGIENE STANDARDS
We really do hope that you will choose to stay at our property when you make your visit to the Eternal City. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Enjoy your stay with us, the staff of "Comfy at the Coliseum", Your Vacation Home away from Home.
Let's make some clarity.
If what you want is a stay in a comfortable, authentic and genuine apartment in the heart of Rome, then you are booking the right place. But remember, we are not a hotel or a B&B and we cannot provide ancillary services other than those permitted by the municipal regulation! So, if your expectations are to stay in a luxury location with assistance, check in unplanned in advance, services on request and hotel treatment, we would be so sorry to disappoint you that we recommend the grand hotel on the corner! :-)

Brilliantly located apartment, very close to the Coliseum
This is a spacious and comfortably apartment, within 5 minutes walk of the Coliseum. As it is so central, we were able to walk to most of the main attractions. It is very easy to get the metro to the Vatican and the tram to Trastevere. We were a party of 2 families, with 4 adults and 5 children. There was plenty of space and the apartment was well equipped. We were easily able to cook meals for everyone. Salvatore was very helpful before we arrived, giving clear instructions about getting from the airport. We were met on time and given a detailed explanation of the apartment and local area. On the day we checked out we were able to leave our bags at the apartment and come back for them at lunchtime, which really helped with our arrangements. The layout is unusual, with three inter-connecting bedrooms. This was made clear beforehand and you can see the layout from the floor plan. It wasn't a problem for us at all but it wouldn't suit all groups who want more privacy.

Comfy at the Colosseum is very comfortable and pleasant
The location is very convenient to most everything. Nice to be on ground floor, and it was very clean. We had a family group of 11 and we had plenty of room. Air conditioner worked great and lots of bathrooms that is a necessity for 11. Hosts met with us when we arrived and we’re very accommodating. Thank you so much. Would definitely come back again.

Great stay, perfect location!
We had a great stay in Rome. The apartment was ideal for 2 families - plenty of space, very clean and a fabulous location. Was amazing to walk out of front door to be able to view the Coliseum. Salvatore was always quick to respond to my questions and queries and was extremely helpful. Illaria, who checked us in to the accommodation was absolutely delightful and extremely welcoming. Would definitely recommend this apartment if you’re planning a sight seeing visit to Rome. Only small suggestions...but would be good to have a lock on bathroom doors and also the toilet in main bathroom didn’t flush very well and became blocked quickly. Other than that, everything was perfect and we’d certainly stay here again in the future.

Damage charges
One of the toilets in the property clogged up the first time we used it. After we got back from our trip we were notified we were being charged a fee for a toilet to be fixed that never worked the whole time we were there.

Ruim appartement met perfecte ligging
Wij waren mer 8 vriendinnen en hebben een goed verblijf gehad. De communicatie vooraf was heel goed en ook tijdens ons verblijf was Susanetta goed bereikbaar. Het appartement heeft een living met grote eettafel. Aan de ene kant van de woonkamer zijn 2 appartement met elk een eigen badkamer en aan de andere kant liggen 4 slaapkamers (3+2 en 1x1) met 2 badkamers. Als je de deur uit stapt, zie je rechts het Colosseum op nog geen 5 minuten lopen. Ook de wijk Monti met gezellige restaurantjes en winkeltjes is op 10 minuten loopafstand. De metro 5 minuten lopen. Wij hebben genoten en raden dit appartement aan. 1 puntje binnen is er bijna geen internetbereik, maar goed dat was niet een groot probleem voor ons.

About the host

Hosted by Salvatore

Host profile image
Hi there!
My name is Salvatore Rinaldi, born in Rome in 1974, i am a roman "doc".
I am a former cook/chef, i studied this "art" at the Italian Chef Academy of Rome where i received my certificate of "Chef/Cook" and i used to work in one of the most prestigious restaurant of Rome, "Il San Lorenzo" where i refined the art of italian, and roman in particular, cuisine.
This is why i would love to please my guests with my cuisine during their stay; carbonara pasta, amatriciana, the famous "cacio & pepe" (cheese and pepper)..and then hand made bread, pizza, focaccia..and then cheese, fish and the best wine to accompany their dinner..
So please do not hesitate to contact me whether you wish to have a cook at home while you here!
I am married and a proud dad of two wonderful girls and since i was young i had a passion for jewels, old coins and precious stones and minerals so i completed my studies at the International Gemological Institute of Antwerp where i received my certificate of Gemologist. My two girls were the reason of the choice i made several years ago: i left the restaurant where i used to work and i started my new career as forensic gemologist and numismatic at the Court Criminal Division of Rome, where i work as a consultant expert.
