Decked out with vintage finds, Casacau hotel offers secluded and surprisingly peaceful boutique apartments in the centre of Rome – in a 17th-century building just steps from the Trevi fountain. Helpful and well-informed hosts have curated the seriously alla moda Sixties-inspired crash pads, of the kind flamboyant Italian fashion dames Anna Dello Russo or Anna Piaggi would approve of, using dramatic fresco-printed headboards, era-spanning art prints, a sprinkling of antique trinkets, and turquoise and tangerine-hued mid-century modern kitchenettes for self-catering flexibility.

  

The hotel is enviably central, just a three-minute trot from the Trevi Fountain and 10 minutes’ walk from the Spanish Steps. The apartments are in a 17th-century building in quiet side street Via in Arcione.
