Margarita Penthouse Italy

The romance of Rome shines strongly over this 18th century Palazzo on one of the city’s most prestigious streets. Margarita Penthouse enjoys a central location with fabulous views from its private rooftop terrace. Rome is one of the most beautiful cities in the world with its pretty piazzas, ornate fountains, art filled churches and museums and a fascinating history.
A private lift brings you to the fifth floor, directly into your luxury apartment which is just perfect for groups who might enjoy the independence of separate kitchenettes and living areas on two floors. Get together for a glass of wine on the romantic rooftop terrace and watch the sun set magically over the bell towers of Trinità dei Monti, the Piazza di Spagna, Via Condotti and the rooftops beyond. In this beautifully furnished and modernised luxury space, you are sure to feel pampered by the two master suites and a beautiful bedroom, sumptuous Italian bathrooms and a private butler on request.
Step out of your building to explore the neighbourhood’s fashionable high-end designer shops or call into Via Margutta, a narrow picturesque street with ivy clad homes and little art galleries. Take the short walk to the bustling Piazza di Spagna and The Spanish Steps or simply stroll to the tranquil Borghese Gardens.
The apartment is near so many of the city’s most famous sights. Throw a coin for luck into the Trevi fountain before marvelling at the Pantheon and let your imagination roam at the Roman Forum and the Colosseum. Admire the views from Palatine Hill and look towards the extraordinary St Peter’s Basilica on the skyline over The Vatican.
There are speedy and fun ways to see the city such as an electric bike tour or an atmospheric night time Segway excursion. For a longer day away from this glorious city there are trips to Pompeii, Mount Vesuvius and the Amalfi coast. More locally, try out a wine and food tasting tour in the Roman countryside or walk along the iconic Appian Way. Wherever you go, you will love returning to your stunning apartment in this beautiful city. In the beautiful city of Rome, Margarita Penthouse enjoys a central setting on a prestigious street just around the corner from the world-famous Spanish Steps.   
Part of a collection of apartments, the penthouse can be found on the fifth and sixth floor of a historic palazzo whilst buffet breakfast and the concierge service are in the main part of the building. As soon as you step out, you are surrounded by high-end boutiques and just a few strides away from the Fontana della Barcaccia as well as the Spanish Steps leading up to the stunning Trinità dei Monti.
Visit the house and museum where the English romantic poet Keats lived and died or treat yourselves in the English Babington Tearooms. While you are in the area, stroll along 17th century Via Margutta, a characterful narrow street with ivy covered homes where Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck lived in the 1953 film “Roman Holiday”. Once the home of studios where musicians like Debussy composed their masterpieces, it now houses little art galleries and antique shops.
Now it’s time to head to the Trevi Fountain (750m) and throw a coin backwards over your shoulder for good luck. From here it is only a short walk to the Pantheon, the largest brick dome in the history of architecture and believed by Michelangelo to be the work of angels, not men.
Let your imagination wander at The Roman Forum as you walk in the footsteps of Julius Caesar. Marvel at the Colosseum, one of the “New Seven Wonders of the World” and admire the views from Palatine Hill, where legendary Romulus and Remus were found. Revel in the wonders of St Peter’s Basilica and Michelangelo’s glorious ceiling in the Sistine Chapel inside Vatican City.
After so much sightseeing, take a break in the peaceful surroundings of Villa Borghese Gardens with its restful fountains and lakes. Hopefully refreshed by nature, you might even feel ready to pop into the Gallery of National Modern Art inside the park.
Join the locals coming out to the bars and cafes for their traditional evening aperitivo before eating at one of Rome’s fine restaurants or humbler pizzerias and trattorias – try a chilled white wine from the Castelli Romani Hills. Cross the River Tiber to the authentic hidden corner of Trastavere with its bars, craft beer pubs and cobbled backstreet lanes.  
Take a Segway tour or an electric bike ride around the city or walk along the Appian Way, around 9km away. There are long day trips to Pompeii, Mount Vesuvius and Positano on the Amalfi coast, closer beaches near Fiumicino and food and wine tasting tours in the Roman countryside.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
