THE HOUSE OF THE MARBLES, a 5-minute walk from the Colosseum and the Vatican

Refined and curated apartment on the first floor, in the historic Via dei Giubbonari, right in the middle of the walkway between Colosseum and Piazza San Pietro. Ancient marbles that belonged to the Roman princes, parts of the walls from which fragments of amphora still emerge: the original character has been carefully respected in the modern renovation, which was followed with passion and competence by a specialist in archeology. It consists of two bedrooms, each with a large double bed and its own bathroom with access from the bedroom, in addition to a common room intended for the living room, where there is a comfortable sofa bed for a possible fifth guest. In the living room there is a dining area, a kitchen with a combined oven (including a microwave), a fridge and a gas hob.
The house is comfortable and quiet: the master bedroom has a view of the ancient Via dei Pompieri, which links Via dei Giubbonari to Piazza del Monte di Pietà. The second bedroom has two windows that overlook the inner courtyard of the building. Air conditioning in every room, television, WI-FI; the electric controls consist of light blue touch LEDs.
The main bathroom in antique yellow marble has a very comfortable shower (1.50 x 0.90 m); a marble sink that, like the others in the house, was created from a fountain that comes from the garden of one of the oldest Roman families. The bathroom of the second bedroom, with shower box, is smaller in size but not less attention to detail, also equipped with a hairdryer and a still functioning bronze cock of the '700. Via dei Giubbonari, which leads to the Campo dei Fiori square, is one of the busiest streets in the center and full of shops. This apartment, located a few meters from the ancient House of Pompey, is ideal for a fascinating exploration of the mysteries and wonders of the Eternal City. In the houses of ancient Rome, unlike today, the apartments on the ground and first floors were the most valuable, due to the greater security they offered in the then very frequent case of a fire: the wooden ceilings of this old apartment they are not very high (about 2.20 meters)

Location, Location, Location!
As the title says, it is in a fantastic location. It was a great place to stay for two couples. Within one minute there is coffee and pastries, a breakfast place, and a fantastic gelato shop. Within five minutes there is a square with a bunch of great restaurants and bars. Our favorite was the Mercado. It is also centrally located to many of the main places to visit. The property manager was very responsive. Would definitely stay there again if we came back to Rome.

A perfect oasis
Rome is breathtaking, but sightseeing means long days that can be hot, dirty, crowds, etc. House of Marbles is like the perfect “off switch” from what’s outside: it’s perfectly cool, quiet, nicely lit, well appointed… like a refuge. The location is great so you can pop back for a midday siesta or a shower, to get food or water. It’s right by Campo so there’s lots of food and supplies, great shopping, and lots of busses to get around if you don’t want to walk, which is what we chose most of the time. 11/10. Probably the best rental I’ve seen. Bring your own shampoo.

Charming Place in a Great Location
Upon arrival, we messaged Andrea who quickly responded and met us and welcomed us graciously. It was very hard to get any wi-fi or cell reception in the whole city, so when we forgot to get the actual codes before we parted, it took awhile before we could get ahold of him again. Also, both of our vrbo’s in Italy charged a city tax per person and needed payment upon arrival. (Just to be aware as it was not expected—maybe we missed it in the ad, but it caught us off guard.) The master bedroom was large and lovely, and the master bathroom was completely adequate. The second bathroom, however, had a shower so small you could not bend one way or another without opening the door or shutting the water off. Which meant all 4 adults were sharing one shower by day 2, again not a big deal, just a note. Couch/futon was a nice size but not a very comfortable sleeping spot for an adult, a smaller child might have not mind so much. All in all we enjoyed our stay here and Andrea was a great host!

What a great property and experience. We had a wonderful time in Rome and really enjoyed our time at this property. It was clean, well furnished and had many upgrades that added to the experience. The location was perfect as is central to many of the key attractions and piazzas where we could enjoy a cafe or an afternoon break. The hosts were very responsive and provided guide books and recommendations which made it easier to plan our time. Highly recommend the house of marbles for your Rome experience.

We loved our stay in the House of Marble. The apartment was amazing with old and new architecture. We loved the marble pieces throughout the walls. Location was perfect with the piazza down the street where we found plenty of places to eat and a daily farmer’s market. We would definitely stay here again.

This property was amazing! Great location and so charming inside! It was immaculate and had plenty of space for 5 adults. We stayed here just one night before we flew home but I wish we could’ve stayed longer. Andrea was a great host. He made sure we had instructions on how to get there and provided lots of information ahead of time on the area. He also helped us arrange travel to the airport which was a huge help. It was wonderful to have 2 bathrooms with nice showers and the beds were so comfortable. It really exceeded our expectations and we would definitely stay here again. Thank you to Andrea!

Apartments for hire do not get much better than the house of marbles. The location was ideal, close to many attractions, cafes/restaurants and shopping. The apartment itself was clean, comfortable and spacious. I can’t think of any negative aspects. If we ever return to Rome we will hopefully be staying here again. Thanks to our very kind hosts!

What a great location! You step outside the door onto a narrow cobblestone street and you feel like you’ve been transported to Ancient Rome! And this apartment perfectly blends into that neighborhood. Yet it has been wonderfully renovated to provide all the modern comforts.
