More information on Domus Aventina

Located in the most enchanting scenario of ancient Rome, next to the temple of the god Mithras and above the house of Aquila and Priscilla, where Saint Peter lived, between the Colosseum and the Roman Forum, the Circus Maximus and the Baths of Caracalla, right next to the church of Santa Prisca, onto whose cloister all of the rooms' windows look out, lies the Domus Aventina hotel, a unique structure set within eternal monuments in a green oasis, on the most famous hill of history: the Aventine. The hotel's 17th-century facade, which has remained intact, is embraced on the one side by the municipal rose garden, where more than 2000 types of plants grow, and by the famous Giardino degli Aranci on the other. These extraordinary features are highlighted by the conveniences of a completely renovated hotel, immersed in the precious silence of times gone by.
