The Rome IndexTrastevere
Narrow lanes, ivy-covered facades, and Rome's best concentration of evening trattorias and bars.
Why stay here
Across the river from the historic center, with a village feel that's hard to find elsewhere in central Rome.
Who it suits
Travelers who prioritize atmosphere and evenings out over walking distance to the Colosseum or Vatican.
What to know
It can get loud on weekend nights near Piazza Trilussa and Piazza di Santa Maria — quieter streets are a block or two back.
