Colosseo, Pantheon e tutti i monumenti aperti di sera nellì'Estate 2026 - From Home to Rome

The Colosseum and the Pantheon to open at night in August

Have you heard about the concept of “tropical nights”? This happens when the temperatures never drop below 20°C (68°F) after sunset. This year, between May and the end of July, Rome has recorded over 50 tropical nights. This has increasingly pushed people to be out and about looking for activities to do when temperatures, while […]

How to live like a local in Rome: a guide by From Home to Rome

Living like a local: a first-timer’s guide to everyday life in a Rome apartment

So you’ve booked your first trip abroad, and you’ve chosen Rome. Excellent decision. You’ve also chosen to stay in an apartment rather than a hotel, which means you’re about to have a completely different experience of the city. No buffet breakfast, no 24/7 front desk, no room service… Just you, a set of keys, and […]

When facts about Rome turn out to be myth - From Home to Rome comes to the rescue

Things you thought were Roman… but are not!

Rome has been so thoroughly mythologized in films, cookbooks, and a thousand “best of Italy” listicles that the majority of visitors arrive to the city with a fully formed mental image of it. In our experience in our day-to-day job, the expectations are only about 40% accurate. The rest is a composite of things borrowed […]

Where to workout for free in Rome - a guide to parks and bike lanes in the city

Staying active in Rome: working out in the open air

Rome might just be the perfect city for exercise enthusiasts: its legendary seven hills (although we know that there are more of those hidden in plain sight!), its rivers, or its bike lanes are part of the reason why Romans are, on the whole, a surprisingly active bunch. Gyms are there, of course, but you […]

New holiday rental seconds from Trevi Fountain: Crociferi 15 by From Home to Rome

New at From Home to Rome: Crociferi 15

Via dei Crociferi is just another name of yet another narrow street in the city center of Rome… Until you look it up on a map to realize where this alley is. Crociferi 15, the newest addition to our portfolio, is just seconds – that’s right, seconds! – from the Trevi Fountain, in the kind […]

Behind the Pantheon, a literal hidden gem comes back to life

How to Visit the Basilica of Neptune (Pantheon)

While Rome is pushing forward with its long-awaited Metro Line C — a new subway line whose construction keeps turning up unexpected archaeological finds right under the city center — the monument we’re featuring here owes nothing to those excavations. It has always been there, within arm’s reach, but like so many Roman sites, quietly […]

Storia e curiosità del Teatro dell'Opera di Roma, da visitare durante la vostra vacanza romana

A must-visit: Teatro dell’Opera di Roma (the Opera House!)

Thousands of people pass by one particular building in Rome every day on their way to or from the main train station at Roma Termini. Some take pictures of it, non immediately recognizing what it is, while others get closer and notice the show listings… but few truly know its history and significance! And yet, […]

A new holiday rental managed by From Home to Rome

New at From Home to Rome: Gregorio VII

For some tourists, the immediate Vatican area is only good for visiting St. Peter’s Basilica, the Vatican Museums and little else — after all, there are too many people, too many tourist traps, and every other landmark feels far away. Others, conversely, are not at all put off by the idea of staying in an […]

Five fountains to visit that are NOT Trevi Fountain

Five (more!) Roman fountains you can visit for free

(Or: a modest proposal for anyone willing to set an alarm at 5AM to dodge a €2 ticket) Let us address the situation with the candor it deserves. Since the City of Rome introduced a €2 entrance fee at the Trevi Fountain, a significant portion of the traveling public has reacted as though the Eternal […]

Useful apps for your holiday in Rome - as recommended by From Home to Rome

Essential apps for your first trip to Rome
