If you are looking for a fun night out on the town, there are many places in Rome where you can dine and listen to good music. Without having to move from one venue to another. Here are the evenings we propose in the city, to spend a different dinner or after dinner. Which one do you prefer?
The Sanctuary Experience Rome
Near the Colosseum we find a very special venue, The Sanctuary. Here you will feel like you are in an exotic location, in a space with large tables, hammocks, big pillows and entertainment of all kinds. The menu offers few dishes, but the flavors are good and oriental. On weekends don’t miss the DJ set with international artists and the Sunday brunch overlooking the pool. It is very popular, so we recommend booking well in advance.
