hey guys sean here from the roman guy
00:02
and in this video I'm gonna explain
00:04
which neighbourhood of Rome is best for
00:06
your stay
00:07
whenever I'm planning a vacation my
00:10
family
00:10
I'm always intimidated by the question
00:12
where should I stay not just which hotel
00:15
but where in the city is best for me
00:18
whether you're planning a trip to your
00:19
family headed off on a romantic
00:21
honeymoon or traveling on a budget this
00:23
video is going to explain which of our
00:25
favorite Roman neighborhoods we
00:27
recommend for each type of traveler
00:31
pedesta today but a step ahead whose
00:36
names translates literally to beyond the
00:38
Tiber is a charming bohemian neighbor
00:40
and filled with great spots for food and
00:42
drink home to great nightlife and
00:44
cocktail culture in Rome this is a good
00:46
option for you if you don't mind walking
00:48
or taking a quick tram ride to your
00:50
sightseeing activities but a step a day
00:52
is not home to any large attractions at
00:54
the Colosseum or trevi fountain its
00:56
charm derives from its classic pastel
00:58
homes and picturesque interwined
01:00
cobblestone streets you'll find yourself
01:03
enamored by busy local restaurants and
01:05
shops which are all trying to be more
01:07
creative in the next it's not connected
01:11
to historical center by subway or Metro
01:13
but you can either hop over the Ponte
01:15
Cisco bridge by foot or catch a bus or
01:18
tram it's easy to catch a taxi on the
01:21
limits of it as well but our step day
01:23
has its own train station exit connects
01:25
with from Vegas International Airport
01:26
Comanche know which makes it really easy
01:28
to get the airport and it's pretty
01:30
inexpensive for details on tickets see
01:33
the blog below Podesta is perfect for
01:35
someone who wants to discover the inner
01:36
artist and is no stranger to the sounds
01:39
of nightlife regardless of whether I've

jackson Navona pampy on the Pantheon and
02:21
piazza navona neighborhoods are amongst
02:22
my most favorite in rome personally I
02:24
feel they offer the best value of all
02:26
worlds bars restaurants access to Rome's
02:29
most coveted attractions and if you are
02:31
in decent shape you can walk almost
02:32
anywhere
02:33
here you'll find affordable
02:35
accommodations or you can stay at some
02:37
of Rome's 5-star hotels it literally has
02:39
everything based on which street you
02:41
choose you could be kept up all night by
02:43
the area's busy nightlife or walk
02:46
outside feeling like you're in some
02:48
provincial town outside of Rome while
02:50
these areas may not be within a
02:51
five-minute walk to reliable subway stop
02:53
they are about 20 minutes walk from
02:55
anywhere you want to go in the city
02:57
they're also extremely well connected by
02:59
buses many of the rooms buses pass
03:01
through Piazza Largo to Argentina which
03:03
is just blocks away from the Pantheon
03:05
it's an excellent area
03:06
stay connected if you're adventurous
03:08
enough to use the bus system top
03:11

03:14
Palazzo attempts case' descent Agostino
03:20
breaking down the wrong neighberhood
03:22
section by section is taxing on the body
03:24
I'm gonna stop and have a refreshing
03:25
fruit juice while I'm doing that if you
03:28
wouldn't mind just take a little break
03:29
as well and like our video if you like

Spanish Steps the Spanish Steps is a
03:40
very special area for so many nostalgic
03:43
lovers of Rome the area has gained its
03:45
stardom from so many Hollywood classics
03:48
for good reason
03:49
the streets are heavily pedestrian and
03:51
lined up with beautiful neoclassical
03:53
buildings that are all extremely well
03:55
cast you should be able to find a few
03:57
different combination types of Serie but
03:59
you'll definitely find a high density of
04:01
four star l and five star hotels many of
04:04
which host all of your famous actors and
04:07
performers during their visit to Rome
04:08
the Spanish Steps area has its own metro
04:11
station called espana on its border is
04:15
flaminia Piazza del Popolo metro station
04:18
and Barberini all three of these stops
04:21
from the red line and make it easy to
04:23
get to the Vatican or with a quick swap
04:25
at termini to the blue line and you're
04:27
on your way to the Colosseum a few buses
04:29
runs this area's well but it's much
04:31
better connected by Metro you definitely
04:34
won't be able to turn around without
04:35
seeing a taxi so this option is always
04:37
available
04:38
this area is ideal for people who have
04:40
large expendable budgets for the trips
04:42
hotels can be quite costing everything
04:44
else follows the same theme even Airbnb
04:47
you can stay here on a budget but you
04:49
may find yourself battling with higher
04:51
cost of living the high cost comes with
04:54
the amazing feeling of Audrey Hepburn
04:56
from every time you walk out of your
04:58
hotel or accommodation if you've worked
05:01
hard and saved for your la dolce vita
05:03
vacation then pick the Spanish Steps
05:05
area top attractions Spanish Steps Via
05:10
Condotti Trevi Fountain

05:16

in ancient Rome Monti was a seedy slum
05:34
neighborhood and homes to Rome's
05:35
red-light district called su Buda Julius
05:39
Caesar even lived here for some time now
05:42
it's quite the opposite
05:43
both century located and full of
05:46
mom-and-pop style chat to diem and
05:48
excellent creative shopping Monti has
05:51
distinctly separated its vibe from the
05:53
tourist attractions that border it it
05:55
basically is a more posh version of the
05:57
artistic to the 7a and more centrally
06:00
located at night you can either hit the
06:02
restaurants and bars or just buy a
06:04
bottle of beer or a bottle of wine and
06:06
sit in piazza della madonna de monte
06:08
which is a popular stop for young
06:11
professional Romans after work Monte is
06:17
an ideal place if you want to be able to
06:19
get around Rome easily
06:20
it has metro stop Cavour which is one
06:23
stop away from terminate from there you
06:25
can get to the Vatican or you can turn
06:26
around and get to the Colosseum it's
06:29
just extremely well connected you can
06:30
get a taxi easy a bus anything if you're
06:33
looking to be centrally located in Rome
06:34
and have an easy place to walk around
06:36
Monte is it since the Colosseum is
06:40
basically across the street from Mundi
06:42
we highly recommend doing one of our
06:44
Colosseum tours during your stay check
06:46
out our best Colosseum tours video in
06:48
the description below to figure out
06:49
which of our awesome tour is right for
06:51
you top attractions Colosseum Trajan's
06:58
market
07:00
santa maria maggiore san fierro and
07:06
Engelmann karate prati is a recently
07:15
rebuilt area of rome which is home to
07:17
Rome's largest attraction the Vatican
07:19
City the area is definitely home to a
07:21
more modern feel if that's possible in
07:23
Rome most of the buildings are only
07:24
about a hundred years old but still have
07:26
a beautiful neoclassical look this area
07:29
is mostly residential so you won't find
07:31
a lot of commotion at night it's near
07:32
the Vatican so you'll find a lot of
07:34
tourist traps near the walls the Vatican
07:36
and they charge mostly tourist rates we
07:38
always recommend a few streets away in
07:40
order to get the best price for quality
07:42
all you need is a little bit of research
07:44
Provost - great metro stations acavano
07:47
and Lepanto and tons of buses going
07:49
right through it taxis are also
07:51
extremely easy to find and there's a
07:53
major taxi stand in piazza research
07:55
event though proxy is not my personal
07:58
favorite place to stay in Rome since I
08:00
love walking out on the cobblestone
08:01
streets but it's perfect for a family
08:03
that does not want to deal with the
08:04
noise at night or someone who's
08:06
traveling and mobility issues is looking
08:08
for wider streets of course it's also
08:10
great for anyone is looking to base
08:12
their vacation around visiting the
08:13
Vatican or a religious experience if
08:16
you're visiting the Vatican which you
08:19
absolutely should do if you're in Rome
08:21
better yet staying in prati you should
08:24
definitely plan ahead check our link

attractions Vatican City Sistine Chapel
08:39

08:41
Sant'Angelo
08:45
testaccio
08:48
that statue has an abundance of great
08:50
food rich history and vibrant character
08:52
staying to statue if you want to immerse
08:54
yourself in a more local life of Rome
08:56
don't stay here if you want to look out
08:59
your window and see the Spanish Steps
09:01
by far the most outstanding element a
09:04
statue is its foodie scene the
09:06
neighborhood is home to one of the best
09:07
food markets in Rome the testaccio
09:09
market once home the biggest
09:11
slaughterhouse in Europe the statue is
09:13
now a hip neighborhood and a mecca for
09:15
the best food in Rome Testaccio is
09:18
linked with the classic Kushina paavada
09:20
which means the poor kitchen even though
09:23
this cuisine was once eaten that
09:24
necessity is why we enjoyed in Rome
09:26
today
09:28
taxis don't come often through this area
09:30
but don't let that prevent you from
09:32
staying here think of it as a challenge
09:34
to get to know the city on a deeper and
09:36
more authentic level anyway this area is
09:38
well-connected by metro stop piramide
09:40
connected also to the Colosseum and
09:42
terminer train station and tons of buses
09:45
that will leave you different areas the
09:46
city this notch is a great place for
09:48
creatives 20-somethings and families if
09:50
you've already been to Rome or you want
09:52
an extended trip to statues a good pic
09:54

09:57
reasonable for an excellent apartment
