Guest House Arco dei Tolomei

We came for six days very unprepared. We hadn’t booked any visit, or guided tour and had no time to read / learn or properly plan anything aside from wanting to visit the main historical attractions and try some good ice-cream. The only really one good thing we did was choose Arco dei Tolomei Guesthouse. And that made all the difference. We were sent to our best meal in Rome on our very first evening and the following morning we sat with Marco, the owner who continued to help and plan much of our visit. The location is amazing, the facilities completing the antique surroundings, charming, clean, hospitable and comfortable (the bed was excellent!). Breakfast is an event: sitting all the guests together at a central table (again, lovely room!) with homemade jams and coffee to die for. The setting coupled with the owner's hospitality and recommendations made us experience Rome more authentically than we had expected. Highly recommended!
