Trastevere is considered one of the oldest parts of Rome, and the most local. Italians coming to visit Rome always prefer Trastevere. The magic of Trastevere is that it has retained so much of its essence through political and tourism influences over the years and centuries.

Trastevere is situated roughly equidistant between the Colosseum and St. Peter’s Basilica. In a city that always means walking, it’s a great midway spot!

Staying in Trastevere

Because the area is so old-school and local, there aren’t any large traditional hotels. But there are tons of Airbnbs, guest houses, and the like.

Great inexpensive B&B in Trastevere. Simple, but good for the price point in a good neighborhood.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Amateur Italian, travel advisor, and adventurous eater! I’m a travel creative living in small town northern Italy, and I've been planning travel for over 15 years. I've lived on three continents and visited over 40 countries, so I'm passionate about helping travelers experience the best of a location, no matter where! I love both/and travel: I want to see the big sights AND the local hangouts, the big cities AND the small towns. I’d love to help you do it too! If you’re going to Rome for the first time, you don’t need me to tell you to see the Colosseum. But you might want me to tell you if it’s better as a guided tour or on your own, what add-on’s are worth the money, and what are the extra secret things your ticket can get you! My favorite part of travel is eating well: finding the local haunts, tasting a new wine, and trying the local dishes. Amazing food doesn't have to be expensive: sometimes the best of a place is in the street food! But if it is a splurge, I'll make sure it's worth every penny. I'd love to work with you to create the trip of your dreams!
