Pick a hotel in rome?

[tacocat]

I booked an apartment in Rome ages ago in the Trastevere district but found a hotel that looks walking distance to lots of attractions and now I can't decide which is better. We are only there 2 nights so I want to maximize walkability and time.

Anyone care to weigh in?

Thanks!!

Based on location, I'd pick the place in Trastevere. The last time I was in Rome I stayed near the Spanish Steps but I wish we had stayed in Trastevere. It's such a nice neighborhood and you've got a great pick of places to eat.

Trastevere is so nice. The best part of Rome IMO. Maybe a tiny bit less walkable than campo dei fiore, but not by much.

This exactly. The next time we're in Rome, that's where we'll stay.

What is with the model in all the photos of the second one? I would pick the first one based on that alone.

That model is so weird, lol. I will stick with what we had. Thanks guys! I thought that was the best area m

We loved walking around in Trastevere. But it was a bit out of the way to get to. We visited with our kids and rented this apartment that was on the Campo de Fiori:

We loved it. It was on the 5th floor with no elevator but the view was amazing. We saw people strolling about on the square. We loved buying fresh fruits at the market and fresh bread at the bakery across the square. The restaurant downstairs was also really nice.

We stayed near the Spanish Steps and Villa Borghese. It was a great location.

I loved Trastevere. We've stayed there the last 2 times we've been in Rome.
