Hotel San Anselmo Review

A four-star in a nineteenth-century villa on the Aventine, with a garden.

Best for

A second or third visitTravellers who want silence at nightEating in Testaccio

Why it stands out

The Aventine is scored 7.8 for quietness, the highest of the seven areas, and this is where that score comes from.

Main trade-off

The hill is a climb, and the Forum is a fifteen-minute walk rather than a step outside.

Why we recommend it

Best for quiet

Our pick for quiet without leaving the centre: a villa on the Aventine hill, which is the calmest address in central Rome and a walk down to Testaccio's market and trattorie.
