Palazzetto is a beautifully decorated independent palazzo spread over three levels and divided into two exquisite apartments. Offering eight bedrooms for up to 16 guests, it's the perfect choice for larger groups who want a little additional flexibility and privacy, but with generous social areas for mingling and swapping stories after a day exploring the Eternal City.

Rome is so full of historically significant sites that the entire historic centre of the city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. With extraordinary archaeological wonders around every corner and some of the world's most iconic landmarks dominating the skyline, it's a history lover's heaven. From the 'city-within-a-city' of the Vatican to the Colosseum, the Mausoleum of Augustus, the Pantheon and the city’s mysterious catacombs, it would take more than one trip to discover all of Rome’s treasures. In between tours of the Castel Sant’Angelo and the oasis that is the Gardens of Vatican City, stop off at cafés for an espresso and a sweet pastry or a slice of pizza with that distinctly Roman crispy thin crust.

The first apartment in this complex is on the first floor. A relaxed living room and dining area are complemented by a fully fitted kitchen, from which guests can access the charming terrace and outdoor living and dining areas. The three bedrooms consist of an opulent master suite with a king-size bed, a second bedroom with bunk beds for younger guests, and a mezzanine area with a double bed. This apartment is large enough for a total of seven guests, making it just right for a family group. The second apartment is a floor above and is split into two levels. The lower level is home to the master bedroom with a double bed and an additional sofa bed. For a touch of indulgence, there is also a steamy sauna and bubbly jacuzzi for easing those tired muscles after a hard day's exploring. Two further bedrooms offer a full double and a single bed, respectively, and a double sofa bed is also available in the living room to give guests a flexible bedding configuration throughout. The upper level of apartment two is home to two more bedrooms, a double and one with two single beds. A living room, kitchenette, and several bathrooms provide enough space for up to nine guests.

Margana Palace is filled with delightfully authentic touches, including the gorgeous courtyard for al fresco dining or social gatherings in the evening. Private and tranquil, it complements the beautifully laid-out interior and makes this elegant home in the centre of Rome the ideal base for a long summer break in one of the most fabulous cities on earth.
