Spanish Steps – The fashion spot of Rome

On entering the piazza, one is immediately taken aback by such elegance: the yellow, brownish ochre-coloured buildings, Bernini’s fountain and the celebrated Spanish Steps rising up towards the Church of Trinità  dei Monti, all helping to create a refined, eighteenth century atmosphere.

It is therefore no coincidence that high-fashion brands, such as Gucci, Bulgari and Valentino, all have show-piece shops just off the piazza.

Home to English poets John Keats and Percy Bysshe Shelley, the world-famous piazza, located at the foot of the Pincio Hill, has always been considered both a priceless cultural gem as well as popular tourist attraction.

10 minutes by public transportation from QuodLibet

Spanish Square with the famous Spanish Steps can be easily reached by metro in 10 minutes. It is a 4 stops connection using the red line of the underground system. The Ottaviano San Pietro Stop is just 50 metres from the B&B and the Spanish Steps are served by the stop Spagna which is just there. For those who like walking, they can reach the B&B from the Spanish steps in 25-30 minutes of slow walk crossing a nice side of the centre of Rome.
