Buonanotte Garibaldi

Trastevere & Gianicolo


With only three rooms in a divinely pretty villa set around a courtyard in Gianicolo, this upmarket B&B is a haven. The rooms – themed Rome (inspired by the magnificent sunsets over Rome as seen from Gianicolo), Chocolate and Tinto – are beautifully decorated. There are works of art and sculpture all over the place; this is artist Luisa Longo’s house.

The pick of the rooms is upstairs Rome, which opens onto a greenery-shaded terrace. The remaining two, on the ground floor, have access to a flowery patio.
