What a nice neighbourhood to take walk along the very pretty, cobblestoned and narrow streets. There is not o house that is like another. There is many open air restaurants if you want to eat or buy an icecream from the Gelatoshop. Italian icecream is very good indeed!

I can only conclude that we missed something everyone else found. It is reasonably attractive, but no more so than other areas. There is not much to see or do there other than eat. I can well believe that at night, if you go there for a meal, it's got a nice atmosphere. During the day it is nothing special.

This was my favourite neighbourhood in Rome. I also loved Monti. Both have a more local flavour. Don't get me wrong - there were still tons of tourists, especially in the main square near the big church. The restaurants were better, and the narrow, cobblestone streets were full of character. We stayed near Via dei Salume and it was easy... More

Take few hours to roam around this place having old colourful buildings and narrow streets. Visited Santa Maria church which is one of the oldest in Italy. Good open air restaurants to eat around like near Pantheon.

The neighbourhood is very pretty, with laundry hanging between windows and reddish-yellow walls. It's a lovely place to browse small shops (bags, urban clothing), and have a beer or more. It's also very cheap. Take the bus H at Termini to go to Trastevere, then lose yourselves in the small streets.

The King of Artichokes is really the King of kindness! Wonderful menu of chef's recommendations. A must trip for the traveller to Rome to detour to Trastevere. Via di Ponziano, 7/9

After 3 days of site seeing in Rome, we were wondering where was a neighborhood that exemplifies the Italy we Americans always see in the movies and on pretty postcards. Well, Trastevere is it!

This neighborhood is so cool! Like an old Italian village center, in the middle of Rome. Quiet during the day, but after dark Trastevere is the best place for night life in Rome. This neighborhood is very popular among American students.

I stayed in Trastevere for 4 nights while visiting Rome. It is a great city and I was able to walk to all of the museums, monuments, fountains, etc. that Rome has to offer. The city is very safe, clean and easy to get around. There are great restaurants, bars and shop or steps you can sit on and just... More

Found a terrific place for a glass of wine and tasting plate right beside S Maria church where the food and service was great so we returned for dinner 2 nights later. Delicious food, friendly service from Carmine in nice surroundings. There are many good places to eat in the area but we can recommend Graziia and Graziella
