| Rome, Renata |
"Truly the highlight of our trip." |
| Luxury Apartment by the Spanish Steps |
Luxury apartment where you can enjoy a privileged life style appropriate to the finest neighborhood in Rome.
On the corner of Via Condotti in Rome, the Renata apartment is in the heart of all that is elegant in the Eternal City. A two minute walk puts you in front of the Spanish Steps, a location that is so popular because it is so central. Stroll for 15 minutes and you can find yourself at most of the noteworthy sites of historic Rome.
The building mirrors the neighborhood, a proper "palazzo" built about 250 years ago when the Princes Torlonia were amassing their fortunes by managing the fortunes of the Vatican and built the palace across the street.
The apartment is on the third floor (second, European designation) and adjoins the Valentina apartment that, if available, can be rented at the same time to sleep up to eleven people, one of whom would occupy the sofa-bed in Renata. For a large family or group there is also the Zegno apartment two floors up.
Spacious and quiet elegance typify this fine apartment. Two large windows light the living room overlook Via Bocca di Leone.
Two white sofas are grouped by the working fireplace that features stonework from the ancestral home in southern Italy. The hand-hewn ceiling beams have been exposed to display the room as it was originally designed. Also in the living room are some fine antique pieces, a sideboard, and a dining table that will seat six. The living room has a television with satellite reception. The apartment is wired for high-speed internet.
One sofa converts to a single bed for one person.
The flow is from the entry to living room or to down the hall to one bedroom. Off of the living room, one enters a small hall that leads to either the second bedroom or the kitchen.
The floors are tile with carefully selected patterns.
From the entry way, you can enter a bedroom suite that has twin beds that may be combined as a dual-king. The room has a set of square-fr
Through the living room, you enter the second bedroom with a brass bedstead for the queen-sized bed. This bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with a fixed shower head over jacuzzi tub. This bedroom has a special feature, a small study with a private balcony.
The kitchen is equipped with a four burner stove top, oven, dishwasher, small refrigerator/freezer, drip coffee maker, dishes, flatware, pots and pans.
The kitchen also has its own sunny balcony that is glassed in to form the breakfast area. This pleasant area is great for casual meals. The laundry nook is accessed from this area.

Our family of five (3 boys --12,10 and 7) just had a wonderful stay at the Renata. As others have mentioned, the location is fabulous, the furnishings most comfortable and everything about the apartment was as advertised. Love Rome and love the Renata! |

| All around terrific rental! | Jan 2012 |
We spent 5 nights at the apartment and it was perfect! The location was amazing, seconds walk from the Spanish steps. The owner was lovely and made us feel very welcome and was always avaialble to answer any questions we might have. We could easily get around the city from here, everything was within walking distance. Wonderful restaurants and grocery shopping nearby (loved D'Angelo's down the street for pastries in the morning and dinner at night!) While the kitchen is small, it had everything we needed and the dining area in the main livingroom was beautiful and spacious. We would highly recommend a stay here!!! |

| Perfect Winter Break | Jan 2012 |
If you want to have a perfect winter break in Rome, then I suggest that you stay at this home-away-from home apartment at the heart of the city. We rented the apartment for 8 nights starting the 17th December. The apartment was exactly as per desc The advance arrangement that we made especially arriving at 6.30am after a 13 hours flight at was excellent. Nellie the housekeeper was waiting for us at the door when we arrived (the owner was away). Thank You to Lisa and I will be happy to recommend Italy Perfect to anyone who wish to have the perfect break. Sincerely Abu |

This is a lovely apartment in the heart of the best shopping area in Rome (I kidded with my wife that when the Versace street is relegated to a minor side street you know you're in a ritzy area). It's a short walk to the Spanish steps where you can easily find a cab. The apartment is spacious with two large bedrooms and baths. The decor is beautiful and artistic and the place is very clean. My only gripe is minor one, that the maid uses heavily scented soap on the wonderful linens and I'm allergic to fragrances (99.99% of the people would have found the fragrance delightful). When I brought this up to the owner, the maid rewashed my bed linens without the fragrance. I would highly recommend this apartment! |

| Great Location in Rome | Jul 2011 |
The apartment was spacious, well laid out and decorated. Fully air Conditioned was a nice touch so was the wonderful bottle of red wine when we arrived. Marcella our hostess greeted us upon arrival and was able to speak English. She made sure we were all setup before leaving and made us really feel at home. Located near the Spanish Steps in Rome, it was a shopping haven that my teenage daughters really appreciated. Highly recommended for a wonderful stay in Rome. |

| At Home in Rome | Jun 2011 |
Our stay at the Renata was fantastic! The accommodations are first rate. We were greeted upon our arrival and enjoyed a great bottle of wine. The location is perfect for walking to the Vatican, the Villa Borghese, the Forum, etc. We loved being able to walk to enjoy these sites and then find amazing restaurants, shops and markets along the way. We made great use of the references provided by our host, and enjoyed guided tours. We shopped the local markets and made our own food and were able to sample lots of local fare and wine. We were quite reluctant to leave. Being in this apartment, in this location, made our stay in Rome a real dream come true. Highly recommended! We really loved the apartment, as you can see. It was truly all you advertised and so much more that you cannot even get into an ad - the sounds of the city through the open windows, the atmosphere of the neighborhood. We had amazing weather, which helped a lot, I know, but I would stay there any time of year. Thanks for all your help along the way. I hope we can work together again - I was enchanted by Italy. |

| Wonderful experience | Apr 2011 |
The apartment was wonderfully located near the Spanish Steps and close to a metro station. The apartment was very comfortable, roomy, and had everything we needed. The owner was very friendly and helpful. There were good restaurants in the area and a grocery store nearby. You must visit the McDonalds near the Spanish Steps. Not ours here in the USA, and a real treat to see. Italy Perfect and Paris Perfect are as their names suggest- Perfect. Highly recommended. We will definitely use them again, and would choose the same properties. |

The Renata was magnificent. The owner clearly wanted her guests to feel at home with unsurpassed attention to detail, books, internet, linens, impeccable cleanliness, access to knowledgeable private guides and transporation to and from the airport, etc. We wanted to move in permanently. We walked out our door with proximity to a vibrant neighborhood, with small markets, restaurants, ancient ruins and high end fashion at our beck and call! Our only problem now is we will never want to stay anywhere else when in Rome. Thank you so much. |

| Renata apartment even better than we expected | Oct 2010 |
We loved everything about our stay at the Renata apartment. The apartment was clean and as beautiful as the pictures. The check in procedure was easy. The location was great. We felt as if we were in the middle of everything. It was so fun to literally walk around the corner to the Spanish Steps. The welcome bottle of wine was a very nice way to welcome us to Rome. I can't think of anything that you could have done to make it better. We would definitely stay there again. Italy Perfect was a great company to work with. |

| Absolutely Wonderful | Jul 2010 |
We had a magical time in the Renata. Our host was both warm and extremely thoughtful. We enjoyed her company immensely. All the pictures of the home were accurate and the home was stunning! The help given through the Italy Perfect made for a wonderful time and was extremely thoughtful. Loved our driver Stefano, our host and the breathtaking beauty of Rome. We will go back and stay at the Renata in a heart beat. The location and the wonderful people make a trip. Try Nano's for great food; in walking distance and fabulous. Thank you so very much for making this happen for our family, Pat and Lisa. In gratitude, David and Hope |

| Brief stay in Rome | Mar 2010 |
The apartment was charming - great location and wonderfully decorated. The owner, who lives upstairs was also charming, very helpful and extremely nice. The one drawback to the apartment is the heating, which is probably not an issue 90% of the time - however we happened to be there during one of the coldest periods of the year. The system broke down the 1st day so there was no heat or hot water, and it took a while after being fixed before there was sufficient heat. All in all, however, a very pleasant stay. |

| Our home away from home! | Oct 2009 |
Fabulous, large apartment in the middle of a great neighborhood! The apartment was breath-takingly beautiful! And the attention to detail was so gratiously appreciated. We hosted a family wedding and this apartment served all of our needs. Lots of thoughtful details. Very comfortable. Beautiful layout for ourselves and any guests. We'd like to think that it is our Roma home away from home!! |

| The apartment exceeded our expectations | Oct 2009 |
We were apprehensive renting an apartment: unsure of the the quality of the accomodations! Imagine our surprise at arriving at the Renata apt. in Rome. The location is spectacular: walking distance to wonderful shopping, sights, restaurants, and grocery stores! The apartment exceeded our expectations: 2-bedroom, 2 washrooms for a family of four. Perfect kitchen and washer facilities(no dryer). The owner was hospitable and helpful; her housekeeper, provides daily cleaning services which is important when staying for a week in an apt. Ranked 8/10. |

| We loved the apartment. It was modern, good size, and extremely well located. | Oct 2009 |
We stayed at Renata near the Spanish Steps for 5 days at the end of Sept. 2009. We loved the apartment. It was modern, good size, and extremely well located. We enjoyed walking the very safe, well lighted, neighborhood and found good restaurants and a market within two blocks. Marcella, the owner and greeter, was extremely cordial and helpful with our questions. We walked to the Vatican and took the Metro to farther away attractions. My only suggestion is to let guests know that private cars cannot enter this area, as we found out when we tried to return to pick up luggage on our departure date. Not a problem as cabs are readily available. I have recommended you extremely friendly website and services to numerous people already and will certainly use Italy Perfect for future services. Thanks again. |

| Rome Renata Apartment | Oct 2009 |
This is a beautiful and comfortable apartment with private bedrooms and large living spaces. The separate bathrooms are large and furnished with bathtubs that have upright showering capability (which is sometimes an issue with apartments in Italy). The location is very quiet, and central to one of my favorite areas of Rome. Easy access up the hill to the park allows a great get-away from the very busy weekend crowds in this area. Request that your taxi/driver drop you at the front of the building if you have luggage. We had several taxis that wanted to let us out at the corner when they saw the one-way sign rather then circle the block and access from the other direction. Recommended improvements would include a moka pot for espresso and a stove that had all four burners working. The small 'dorm size' refrigerator would be a challenge with several days of groceries. Two significant problems that occurred were resolved equitably. |

Dear Pat, just a quick not to let you know we had a wonderful time at your appartements Valentina and Renata. The location , right in the fashion district , couldn´t have been more perfect for 9 girls. The appartements where lovely, the host very friendly. Great that the maid came to make beds and clean up a little, it was all in all wonderful. |

| Superb! | Jun 2009 |
We spent two months traveling in France and Italy and Renata was the accommodation highlight by a long way. This apartment is one of the few that we booked over the Internet that exceeded our expectations - that said all the apartments we have used through Italy Perfect have been great. It is large, beautifully appointed and in an excellent location. It is even better than the pictures on the web site. The owner has gone out of the way in decorating these apartments and providing all the information you need for a great stay. We stayed here with our two daughters aged 5 and 7 - they loved it. BOOK IT NOW. |

| Our experience with Italy Perfect was just that "perfect". | Jun 2009 |
Our experience with Italy Perfect was just that "perfect". The details that were provided prior to our travel were very helpful and made our trip so much more enjoyable. Thank you. We loved the apt - the size was great for the four of us and the location could not have been better. We loved the man that played the violin at the end of the street - the music came thru our open windows. The owner was a wonderful host and also left a book of recommendations. Our private tour guide of the Vatican, Anne Hogan, was wonderful and her price was less than others. This was our first experience with an apartment rental and we all decided we would do this again. I have given Italy Perfect to many of my friends. Thank you for all your help. |

| I could live there...in my dreams | May 2009 |
The Renata apartment we both loved everything about it. It exceeded our expectations and was so very comfortable and beautiful. Location was great because we used the Spanish Steps Metro [subway] to go everywhere. There was some noise, but the back bedroom was very quiet. Kitchen was great, as well as the bathrooms and the beds were extremely comfortable. It's probably the best vacation apartment rental that we've ever had. The ownerwas wonderful, although I didn't get to meet her, my husband did. The housekeeper who came by each day to do some light housekeeping was delightful. She didn't speak too much English, but my husband spoke a tiny bit of Italian, so that worked well. All in all, I would recommend this apartment highly. I could live there..... in my dreams :) |

| Fabulous apartment in a even more fabulous location | Mar 2009 |
This is a fabulous apartment in an even more fabulous location. Lots of room for family. For adults with small children, the master bedroom is located a bit far from other two bedrooms. The Renata apartment would be better suited for older children. Our two girls loved having their own wing (ages 13 & 10). We did not have a bad meal in any of the local restaurants. The location was very central to all attractions. This was one of our favorite vacations. I have told everyone how pleased we were with Italy Perfect. We only had housekeeping one day, was expecting it during the week days, but it really didn't make any difference to us. Just might want to confirm this if it is important to you. |

| A beautiful apartment in a superb location | Dec 2008 |
As we approached our apartment, we were surprised at how upscale and beautiful the neighborhood was. While it is in one of the nicest areas of Rome, we never felt out of place with our 3 children. In fact, it felt very safe, and there were many inexpensive restaurants from which to chose close by. The location turned out to be ideal. We found that we could walk everywhere.The apartment is beautifully furnished, updated and very large. There was more than enough room for our family of 5 to spread out. The kitchen is small, but is well stocked and can be used to cook anything. We never prepared a dinner in the apartment, but it could be done.The woman we rented from was lovely. She lives one flight up which made it convenient for any questions. She addressed any issues we had with promptness.We highly recommend visiting Pompeii. However, we went during December and were told it is almost prohibitively hot during the summer months. We took a train from Rome which included a transfer in Naples. If you are planning to do a day trip to Pompeii, I would recommend hiring a driver and settling on a price ahead of time. The train was a hassle and we felt we got ripped off on the way down. We also took tours of the Forum and the Vatican which we highly recommend. Even if you've visited the Pantheon during the day, it's worth a night time visit. There are many, many restaurants in the area, and the Pantheon is particularly impressive at night as are the fountains.Don't forget to try the gelato. We became addicted. It is very fun to try out the different gelato places. |

We're back from Rome and I wanted to let you know we had an absolutely great time. The city seems very different than when I visited during my Junior year in college. We were very pleased with our apartment and absolutely loved the location. I didn't realize the neighborhood would be so beautiful. Thanks for all your help. We rented from your sister in Paris and now from you in Rome. We plan to stick with you! |

We absolutely loved te Renata apartment. The owner met us and allowed us early morning check in. The location is perfect with wonderful restaurants and shopping. Centrally located. A very safe neighborhood. After many years of staying at the 5* hotel next door, the Renata was a wonderful alternative. Plenty of room. I highly recommend the Renata. Live like a Roman. |

| It was truly the highlight of our trip. | Apr 2008 |
The accommodations were perfect. The apartment was very spacious and comfortable. I'm particular and this apartment worked out beautifully - from the location to the linens and towels. The layout worked out great as well. My son, Tommy (12) loved the small room with the loft and my daughter, Sarah (10) loved having the larger bedroom in the back to her self with the large closet. It's hard to say what we liked the most - for me it was the bed in the master bedroom. The comforter and linens were great and it's the best nights' sleep I had in Italy. The only problems we encountered were the water pressure in the back bathroom shower. The kids used our shower which was fine. The location was perfect for us. We walked everywhere, even to the Vatican and the Colosseum. Each night we walked to dinner and back which was great and we loved all of the shopping. Our favorite restaurants were Nino's; Ristorante Mario; and Recafe. I was a big fan of the fresh produce market at the end of the street every morning. The vendors were so cheerful and helpful and the cafe on the way was great. I got pastries for the kids every morning on my way back from the open market. I would recommend anyone use Ann Hogan, private tour guide. She made our visit to the Vatican an amazing experience. We could not have done it justice on our own and 3 hours flew by. I will definitely look to using your service again when we go back to Italy - and your sister's if it's London or Paris. Pat, thanks for your help with the apartment in Rome. It was truly the highlight of our trip. I can't wait to go back |

| I highly recommend "Renata" to anyone visiting Rome. | Jul 2007 |
The accommodations were spectacular. I highly recommend "Renata" to anyone visiting Rome. We were centrally located, able to walk everywhere we wanted to go, yet on a quiet street. The apartment has every convenience a guest might desire including a/c, television, washing machine. My son takes Latin in school and has studied quite a bit of Roman history so the high point of the visit for my family was definitely the ancient ruins. We used the Roma Pass to avoid lines at the Colosseum and the other sites and I definitely recommend it. We had practically no wait at all. We did not take tours but used the Rick Steves guidebook tours to navigate the sites. I highly recommend his Rome book. We also enjoyed the Vatican. Although crowded, we avoided waiting in line by going after lunch around 2:00. The museum of Rome was very good and not crowded. It provides some history of the ancient Roman period. The owner of the apartment suggested several neighborhood restaurants and we ate at a few of them. All of our meals were good. As for shops, Renata is definitely in the upscale designer district. There is a nice department store nearby that is a bit more reasonable...La Rinascente, I think. We bought groceries at the store at the end of the road as suggested by the apartment owner. She is delightful and very helpful. |
