About this property

TBN - Your home away from home

Nest is home.

The Best Nest was born of the pureness of this sensation: feeling at home.

In the heart of the historic center, for our Guests it has reserved an oasis of comfort and quietness where the echoes of The Eternal City fall asleep in the precious silence of a true rarity: the patio.

Snug and picturesque, the patio greets you even before you get home and the feeling is that of an immediate welcome to an ancient and characteristic building, idyllic union of privacy, relaxation and safety.

The interiors reveal meticulousness and attention to detail, essential ingredients to guarantee our Guests a cozy and functional space, where elegance accompanies high quality services.

Right from the doorway the atmosphere seduces and relaxes with a harmony of design and color that expresses Italian handicraft’s soul and reminds Trastevere’s folkloristic one.

The house is on the ground floor but it is not on the road, which makes it extremely safe.
It has five beds (a double bed, a single bed and a double sofa bed) with a total floor surface of 45 square meters, organized in four spaces: living room with kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and laundry.

From the appliances to the furniture, from the mosquito nets to the gratings, every component has been chosen and studied to satisfy our Guests’ eases and needs.

From our idea of nest this home came into being.
The Best Nest, a dwelling that wants to surprise by the attention to detail, arousing an immediate and strong effect that is both visual and emotional because where the eye is pleased and the heart rejoices, we can always feel right at home.

OUR NEIGHBORHOOD:
Trastevere is not a tourist attraction but the very emblem of Roman spirit, the neighborhood that more and better preserves intact the exuberant soul of The Eternal City.

Intrigue of cobbled alleys, old trattorias and medieval buildings, Trastevere seduces by the genuine contradictions of its core, quiet during the day and entertaining at night.

Here history and art blend with flavours of the most authentic Rome, the one where time has stopped in the suggestive glimpses of a location without equal.

The cobblestones of Trastevere are a mosaic of folklore, treasures and culinary delicacies that make this neighborhood the beating heart of Roman movida, coveted destination for Italian and foreign travelers who don’t like feeling ordinary tourists.

The Best Nest was born in one of the safest and most centric alleyways in Trastevere, an exclusive and enviable location: a few steps from the charming Tiberina Island and the very well-known Basilica di Santa Maria, our Guests will just have to walk for reaching all the most famous attractions of The Eternal City.

From St. Peter to the Colosseum, passing through Castel Sant’Angelo, Piazza Navona, Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain and Pantheon… every sight is within a walking distance and so are all kinds of shops and supermarkets.

And for who doesn’t like walking, just 50 meters from TBN there are many stops of buses and trams that go back and forth between the close Train Station and any other destination within and outside the city walls.

Moreover, our building surrounds itself with World Heritage Sites and hidden gems that will amaze even the most knowledgeable experts about Rome.

• Excubitorium (just in front of The Best Nest)
• Basilica di San Crisogono and its mysterious cellars
• Square and Church of Santa Cecilia
• Villa Farnesina that hosts inestimable frescos by Raffaello
• Palazzo Corsini (embellished by, among many others, Caravaggio and Rubens’ masterpieces)
• Gianicolo Gardens and Rome’s Botanical Garden
• Piazza Trilussa

And these are just some of the wonders in our district that is without doubt the most picturesque of The Eternal City.

Trastevere is known as “the artists’ neighborhood”, The Best Nest is the ideal frame to make your Roman holiday an authentic masterpiece.

PARKING:
As in the whole historic centre, a few steps from The Best Nest it is possible to find on-street parking with rates charged per hour/day etc. and pay and display secure parking.

The Best Nest is the Bees Knees

The Best Nest is the Bees Knees. For those that haven’t heard of that obscure American phrase, it means the cat’s pajamas. For this that haven’t heard that phrase, it refers to something that is excellent and exceptional such is the case with the Best Nest. Our experience from top to bottom was indeed excellent and exceptional. Starting with our hosts, Pietro and Eleonora, they were a pleasure. They set us up with everything we needed to enjoy our stay in Rome. The apartment itself was adorable and the location was perfect. Walk out the front door, turn left 50 feet a wonderful cafe with delightful staff and the best coffee. Walk out the front door 50 feet to the right, amazing bakery and a multitude of fantastic restaurants, and one of our favorites that was recommended by them. From the Best Nest we were able to walk all over Trastavere and the surrounding neighborhoods. I can’t wait to hopefully return to Rome next year and will definitely be staying at the Best Nest, if they will have us. That you Pietro and Eleonora for making our visit to Rome wonderful!

Fantastic stay in Trastevere Rome

Eleanora and Pietro are incredibly accomodating. The best nest is a great place to stay for when you come to Rome. Eleanora and Pietro gave great suggestions and we're ways helpful when we asked questions and overall fantastic hosts. The nest is located in a beautiful gated area, very clean and quiet, close to transportation and in a popular hip neighbourhood. We couldn't have asked for a better introduction to Rome! Thank you so much!! - Olivia & Vanessa

The BEST Nest with the BEST hosts!

We’ve been to Rome numerous times and this was our favorite place to stay. It’s obvious Elenora & Pietro love welcoming travelers to Rome, they couldn’t be any sweeter! Their knowledge and tips were invaluable, we enjoyed so many of their suggestions. The Nest is in a fantastic area of Trastevere, accessible to all that Rome has to offer. All the personal touches are so thoughtful, it’s cozy and such a great place to return to after a day exploring. I believe they now offer a 2nd Nest and can only imagine that one is just as wonderful. Don’t hesitate, Elenora & Pietro will welcome you to Rome and treat you like family, we will miss them and their hospitality!!

Wonderful Place

I loved everything about this cute condo!!! Check in was a breeze and was given valuable information from Pietro and Eleonora. TBN was super clean and inviting. It had all of the amenities that you would want and a very comfortable bed. Location was great!! It has two nice restaurants steps away and a bakery not too far away(5minute walk). You are less than a 5 minute walk to transportation area if you choose to visit all the historical landmarks in Rome. Pietro and Eleonora, I can’t thank you enough for your hospitality!!! I will be sure to visit and stay in your beautiful place again! Many thanks!! Sam

Our Roman Holiday made perfect at The Best Nest

Our stay at The Best Nest in Rome was wonderful due to the our amazing hosts, Eleonora and Pietro. From the moment we booked the reservation until they waved us goodbye 5 days later, they were exceptionally attentive and accommodating. The apartment was well furnished and quiet even though it is in a very vibrant shopping and restaurant area. There was a generous supply of snacks upon our arrival to suffice until we could get out to patronize some of the great restaurants close by and the location is perfect for walking to major sites and near taxi and public transportation. The Best Nest will definitely be our landing pad on future visits to Rome.

Perfect place to start our vacation!

Pietro and Eleanora we the best hosts and The Best Nest was perfect! The location was really perfect for walking just about anywhere in Rome. Even though it’s located in a very popular area to stay know for more of a night life, it was so quiet! The location of the apartment was like a secret spot and we loved sitting out on the patio and relaxing with a glass of wine at the end of the day. The apartment was immaculately cleaned and very comfortable, and had everything we needed and more. The care that Pietro and Eleanor have for the guests is very apparent. They are full of recommendations and great advice to make your time in Rome perfect. My only complaint is that I wish we could have stayed at TBN longer!! It was truly wonderful. Thank you!

Pietro and Eleonora , are the most amazing hosts ! They made our stay beyond what we expected . So kind and thoughtful . Restaurant recommendations , and local tips were really appreciated .Communications before , during and after our stay made everything so easy .

Short trip in Rome before Cruise

TBN is an awesome property conveniently located in Trastevere. We were so close to great dining , taxi stand within a short walk, convenience store, shopping , and pharmacy also very near. We always felt safe walking anywhere and the entire time in the home. Pietro and Eleonora were tremendous hosts . They promptly responded to all of our pre stay requests . Once we arrived they were there to greet us and provided excellent information on the nearby area as well as all of Rome. If you want to visit Rome I would highly recommend TBN.

Wonderful flat in great neighborhood

If this is available, book it now! It was even better than its portrayal online. Eleonora and Pietro are wonderful hosts. They greeted us warmly at the door, checked us in efficiently, provided a great map and excellent tips for our time in Rome, and communicated via WhatsApp during our stay to see if we needed anything. The apartment was spotless and fully-stocked with everything we needed. It's in a quieter part of Trastevere next to several great restaurants, especially the fabulous Dar Sor Olimpio Drago (recommended by our hosts), and the friendly Cafe/Bar Belli. Very convenient location to all central Rome sites too. We hope to come back again for a longer stay - it was just wonderful.

The Best Nest is simply the BEST

The Best Nest is supper clean and very comfortable. The hosts are the nicest people you could meet and are extremely helpful and the communication was outstanding. The property is located in such a great place; right in the heart of Trastevere but is nestled in a private courtyard that is super quiet. So, although you get to enjoy all that Trastevere has to offer, you do not have to contend with city noises. My son and I comfortably walked to the Colosseum, Vatican City, The Forum, Palatine Hill, The Pantheon, The Baths of Caracall, and so much more. If walking is not your way of traveling, the bus and tram stops are only a half a block walk. There are grocery stores close by and more great restaurants than you can count. If I could give this 6 stars I would!!

Geweldige uitvalsbasis voor een bezoek aan Rome

The Best Nest is een heerlijk rustige plek in de bruisende wijk Trastevere; alle gemakken in de buurt en ook de andere mooie plekken (Forum Romanum, Campo di Fiori, Vaticaan) op loopafstand. Het appartement is heel goed onderhouden, brandschoon, gezellig ingericht en van alle gemakken voorzien. Maar wat het plaatje helemaal compleet maakte was dat de beide hosts Pietro en Eleonora ons ontzettend gastvrij en hartelijk verwelkomden. Ook de communicatie via de mail was heel snel en effectief, zowel van te voren als tijdens ons verblijf in Rome. Geen vraag was teveel en zij dachten in alles met ons mee, chapeau! Wij hebben mede daardoor extra genoten van ons verblijf in Rome :-)

We had a lovely time and the property owners have gone out of their way to inform and advise their guests. They have a binder with locations of banks, pharmacies, restaurants, etc. in their neighborhood. The apartment is comfortable. Both the bedroom and bathroom are quite large considering it's inside Rome. The apartment does not face the street. The front door is behind a small internal patio/courtyard pictured in their main photo.
