Relais Chateaux Raphael

 Highly individual, quality option with outstanding flair for decor and visual interest. Popular rooftop restaurant with outstanding views, is a significant attraction. Excellent location on this very peaceful and pretty street, yet just a stones throw from the Piazza Navona and many historical buildings and major sights which are within an easy and pleasant stroll.

Just 15 minutes walk across the river to the Vatican. Will suit romantic couples especially, but anyone wanting top quality service and personal attention will be most impressed. Has parking space in front of the building which is rare in Rome!
