The Experience
There’s a sense of anticipation the moment you enter the marble hall, with its deep, pale sofas and fresh flowers – Marco’s wide smile and infectious enthusiasm reinforce the feeling. This is an unusual, delightful place, hidden down a side street five minutes’ walk from the Spanish Steps. The house belonged to Marco’s father, and Marco and Giulia (he a writer, she a musician) have turned it into the perfect small hotel, which they run with artistic flair. Marble floors, white walls and scarlet furnishings are a dramatic setting for black-and-white photos, their starkness softened by luxuriant plants. The bread oven of the 1700s has become a dining room – all vaulted ceilings, whitewashed walls, cherrywood tables. Bedrooms are fresh and vary in size; some have balconies and wonderful views, all have small, perfect bathrooms. There’s a lovely new sitting room and bar for guests. The whole place has a sweet, stylish air, and there’s a small, jasmine-scented courtyard, an unusually quiet oasis in the centre of the city. The friendly staff will do everything to make your stay enjoyable; ask about Rome’s secret corners or grab a copy of Marco’s new guide and discover them for yourselves.

The neighbourhood
Local points of interest from Giulia & Marco di Tillo
- Spanish Steps - the most popular square in Rome, dominated from the top by the majestic Trinità dei Monti steps. Built in the 16th century and restored in the 19th century, Spanish steps’ top offer a wide breath-taking view of the city.
- Trevi fountain - One of the most important symbol of Rome, it became popular thanks to Federico Fellini’s “La Dolce Vita”.
- Piazza Barbeini - The awe-inspiring Berninis’ Fontana del Tritone (1643) overlooks one of the most beautiful square in Rome.
- Quirinale - This is one of the 7 hills composing the original and traditional core of ancient Rome. On the top of it you could appreciate “Palazzo del Quirinale” facing one of the biggest square in Rome.
- Villa borghese - It is the green lung of the city center. It was thought as as a private “Italian garden” of the Borghese mansion that is why it is plenty of artificial lakes, little temples, fountains, sculptures.
- Via del Corso - This is a Historical street joining Piazza Venezia and Piazza del Popolo, where the most popular shops, bars and restaurants are. It is the most beloved promenade by locals who adore having slow and relaxing strolls there.

We stayed just one night this time with our three sons. It is really well situated near the Spanish Steps and Piazza Barberini. We received a warm welcome from the owners' son. Our rooms were very comfortable and well appointed. There was lots of tasty treats on offer at breakfast. Excellent value for money.
