Valentina Grande

Our family had a terrific stay at Valentina Grande. The location is incredible and right in the heart of a beautiful area full of luxury shopping, delicious restaurants and wonderful sights and museums. The apartment is spacious with lovely rooms to gather, a very equipped kitchen and nicely updated and modern but with authentic Italian charm and decor. We would definitely return here--it was very comfortable and quite luxurious to have so many bedrooms and bathrooms in the heart of Rome.

My recent stay at Valentina Grande was nothing short of magical. Nestled in the center of Rome, this apartment offered the perfect blend of luxury and authentic Italian charm. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by a warm and friendly host who provided us with a wonderful introduction to the property and its amenities. The apartment itself is beautifully designed, featuring spacious rooms adorned with classical artwork and antique furnishings that evoke the rich history of Rome. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it a delight to prepare traditional Italian meals with fresh local ingredients. Dining al fresco was a highlight, surrounded by nature and the gentle sounds of the city. Location-wise, it is ideally situated. It’s a short walk to Rome’s city center, allowing us to explore iconic sites like the Colosseum, Vatican City, Spanish Steps and the Trevi Fountain at our leisure, while also providing a peaceful retreat from the bustling crowds. The attention to detail in every part of the villa makes it clear that the owners care about providing a superb experience. In summary, staying at Valentina Grande was truly a dream come true. With its perfect location, stunning interior, and exceptional service, this villa is the ideal choice for anyone looking to immerse themselves in the beauty of Italy. I can't recommend it highly enough, and I can’t wait for my next visit!

The accommodations were lovely.

The Valentina apartment for our 2 couples exceeded all our expectations, in all aspects…from our original booking process, our greeting upon check-in with our hosts, it’s incredible location, and the size, layout, and tasteful furnishings of this magnificent well-maintained apartment. Considering Valentina’s location we were pleased with how quiet the bedrooms were. Grocery shopping, bakeries, wine stores, cafe’s were all within steps of Valentina, including of course the Spanish Steps and Via dei Condotti a block away. Most of Rome’s major attractions were within walking distance, with a gelato in hand. Now we have enjoyed great experiences with Paris Perfect in August and Italy Perfect in October. Looking forward already to another Vacation Perfect experience next year.

What a beautiful apartment and it couldn't be better located. Everything about the stay was great.

Italy Perfect exceeded our expectations. We used them in Venice, Rome and Florence. Pat and the Italy Perfect team did everything possible to ensure we picked the right properties and looked after us from the time we booked to the time we departed. This was everything we hoped for visiting another country. Handled COVID delays and the constant confusing rule changes. I will recommend them to friends and anyone visiting Italy. Thank you Italy Perfect! You made our trip memorable, relaxing and enjoyable

We stayed in the Valentina apartment in the Spanish Steps area of Rome during the week of Dec 14. The apartment was amazing - beautiful, in a perfect location, a working gas fireplace (we used this everyday - not because we were cold but just for the atmosphere) and just very charming. It was literally around the block from the Spanish Steps (and fyi - there is a metro stop right at the Spanish Steps) and the area was perfect - if we opened the windows we could hear street musicians when they came out at night (eg, opera, sax players) which I loved. ItalyPerfect was great for us - they provided all the necessary information plus more and the greeter was very kind and accommodating and spent a lot time going over all the information in the area plus the apartment. Her restaurant recommendations were very good especially Osteria 31 which was delicious and very authentic. We were just down the street from a food store and bakery which we went to each morning. In addition, we used the driver service and tour guides recommended by Italy Perfect and all were amazing. I would definitely recommend Italy Perfect and the Valentina apartment. 

We enjoyed this spacious apartment within walking distance of all major Rome sites. The host/owner and team were welcoming and helpful. Highly recommend! 

My husband and I loved the Renata apartment. The location near the Spanish Step was perfect and although we were in Rome during a heat wave the apartment's air conditioning held up just fine...which is not always the case in Rome. The preplanning Italy Perfect did was right on target. We also rented the Valentina and Zegno apartments as we had twelve in our group. All the apartments were as advertised, although it's a bit difficult to hear the bell or buzzer in the Zegno apartment as you have to enter past the manager's office and the door was always closed. I had groceries delivered to each apartment in advance, although the grocery store is just a very short 5 min walk and it's easy to go and get exactly what you want. Because we were a large group I made some dinner reservations and these restaurants stood out in the area and treated us well. Al 34 and Il Gabriella. If the adults want to get away AD Hoc is a great place, small and reservations a must. We used Family Twist to arrange our group tours and I can't say enough about them, they were wonderful. I have used Italy Perfect and Paris Perfect and highly recommend them to anyone. 

This was our second stay in this apartment. It was very comfortable for our family of 6. It has everything you could ask for. Bakery shop two blocks for morning pasteries. Grocery a block further. Easy walking to all of the sites - uphill to the Borghese, easy stroll to the Trevi Fountain, the Coliseum and the Forum. The walk to the Vatican included a short stop for coffee. Excellent restaurants in walking distance. We especially enjoyed the Ristorante da Edy, recommended by our tour guide. The best gelato was Fatamorgana Corso, an easy stroll towards the Piazza de Popolo. And don't miss the amazing art in the Basilica Santa Maria in the Piazza.Italy Perfect connected us with Rocco who picked us up at the airport. Later in the week he sent a car for the trip to Florence. For the group of 6 this was faster, a bit cheaper, and much more convenient than the train. We will return. 

My extended family of six had a wonderful stay at Valentina in February. Four adults and two kids felt each had enough space to feel comfortable, both in the bedrooms and in the beautiful living room area. The location is excellent - easy walk to Steps, Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, Piazza Navona and nice walk to Forum, Vatican, Trastevere, Coliseum. Great restaurants right outside door. The property is very well maintained, tastefully decorated yet homey at same time. Would definitely recommend Valentina highly.

My family and I spent a lovely 8 days in the Valentina and Renata apartments that form a huge living space for the 8 of us to enjoy. The apartments are comfortable, well-appointed and HUGE for this area of Rome. We loved the cozy fireplaces in the living rooms as well as the 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. What an ideal setting for a family get together. Our host was delightful as was the greeter. We felt extremely welcome and cared for. The apartments are quiet even though we are just a block off the Via Condotti. You couldn’t ask for a better location to explore Rome from. There are numerous great restaurants in the area and most major sights are walkable. Italy Perfect has once again made our Rome stay memorable!

Thank you so much for arranging such a great trip to Rome and the surrounding area. The apartment was beautiful, spacious, clean and perfectly located. Our greeter was very helpful and a gentleman. The recommended drivers and tours were outstanding, especially our trip to Tuscany. There is no question using your services made our trip to Italy perfect! Already recommended you. Looking forward to our next trip through Italy Perfect!

We had a wonderful time staying at Valentina. The apartment was excellent (there were 8 of us - 5 adults and 3 children) Loads of space and very high quality and tasteful furnishings The location near the Spanish Steps was excellent, we were able to walk to where ever we chose to go Everyone we dealt with was very welcoming and helpful, giving us loads of useful information Hopefully one day we will be able to return!

Pat thank you so much for all your help and for providing the most beautiful apartment for our trip. Everything was fantastic and exceeded our already high expectations! The location was fabulous and it was absolutely perfect for us in all respects.

My family and I stayed (total of 6 people) for 5 nights in this beautiful and comfortable apartment. It was a great idea instead of going to a typical hotel. The location is perfect: safe, nice, near many stores and restaurants, and at walking distance of almost all you would like to see in Rome. 

OMG, thank you for an amazing recommendation.  We LOVE it here....the apartment is spectacular 🙂  Just a quick note to say that your company over delivered on this one!

My family of 5 (including 3 teenagers) spent 5 nights in Rome, staying at the Valentina apartment near the Spanish steps. The apartment was spacious, very comfortable (the air conditioning was fabulous during the heat wave we encountered) and extremely well situated for visiting the city. It is 2 blocks from the Metro station and cab stand, close to lots of restaurants and shops, including a grocery store where we stocked up on breakfast items. The owner met us at the apartment (we called from the Rome airport), oriented us to the place and helped out when needed (wi fi went down one day - very important to teenagers). With a family this size, staying in an apartment makes the visit so much more enjoyable. This is a lovely place to stay. We didn't really cook - the kitchen was small by American standards but worked well for our needs. We tried restaurants recommended by the owner and in Rick Steves' guidebook (all good) and found a great one on our own (at the corner of Via Margutta and via del Fontenella, near Piazza del Poplo. Italy Perfect handled all the details beautifully. Thank you Lisa.

Valentina was spacious, beautifully appointed, central and surprisingly quiet. We would like to stay there again!

As you predicted we were delighted by its location, spaciousness and stylish furnishings. The hostess was charming and the apartment was a fitting place in which to end our European travels. The arrangements all worked perfectly. It was truly superior to the hotel D'Ingelterra next door where I have stayed sometimes on prior business visits. We now appreciate the full value of your recommendation and thank you for offering us this property. We were very happy clients and will no doubt return to your apartments.

Valentina was nothing short of spectacular. Our greeter was icing on the cake.  I can't recommend it more highly.  Thank you for offering such a wonderful apartment in the heart of Rome.  Our friends were jealous that we found such a jewel.  I have given your name and the apartment info to several of my friends.
