Airbnb Management in Roma: Income & Demand

Districts, arrivals and the traffic zone

Rome guests choose a district before they choose a flat. Trastevere and Monti attract couples who want evenings on foot; Prati, near the Vatican and St Peter's, suits families and pilgrims who value calmer streets; Testaccio draws food lovers; Esquilino, around Termini, suits people arriving by train or leaving early for the airport.

Not all demand is tourist. Congresses at La Nuvola in EUR, concerts at the Auditorium Parco della Musica, Six Nations rugby and derby football at the Stadio Olimpico, Sapienza University and hospitals such as the Gemelli bring visitors who stay midweek.

• Lifts: many palazzi have none, or one too small for suitcases; the floor must be stated in the listing.
• Heat: air conditioning is expected from June to September, and August remains a tourist month even when Romans leave.
• Access: the Leonardo Express links Fiumicino to Termini; metro lines A, B and C cover part of the city, so distance to a station shapes demand.
