Rome rooftop at golden hour

Elsewhere Luxe

The Rome Edit

A quieter guide to Rome, by Elsewhere Luxe.

Most Rome guides are written for people collecting sights. This one is written for people collecting afternoons. We've left most things out on purpose. What's left is what we'd tell a friend, including the catches.

What's inside

  1. 01Choose your Rome: the five quarters worth sleeping in, and who each one suits.
  2. 02Three afternoons we'd make time for: Testaccio to Garbatella, Coppedè, and the Appian countryside.
  3. 03If you're already there: the same city, one street to the side of the famous sights.
  4. 04Where to eat on the way, when to go, and how to book Rome well.
