"Housed in a secluded 17th-century monastery in lively Trastevere, this baroque bolthole preserves original frescoed ceilings and period furniture across recently refreshed rooms; the property’s restrained cloistered atmosphere contrasts with the neighborhood’s bustle and includes a refined lobby lounge, a signature gourmet restaurant and a more casual bistro that opens onto a peaceful garden." - Laura Itzkowitz, Erica Firpo
