1. Hotel Smeraldo (from USD 246)

This is a pet-friendly property so you may bring along with furry buddies too (separate charges involved)!
Tip from tour guide
You can visit the Mouth of Truth (Bocca della Veritá), which is located at a distance of 1.6 km (0.99 mi) from the property. A monumental marble mask in the portico of Santa Maria in Cosmedin Church, the sculpture's origin and purpose remain a mystery to contemporary historians. While commonly interpreted as depicting an ancient sea god, several theories persist. Legend says that it used to serve as a lie detector in medieval Rome. People suspected of adultery and perjury would be brought here to put their hands in. An executioner would be standing behind the statue, cutting people's hands if he thought they were lying. The Mouth of Truth achieved cinematic fame in the iconic film Roman Holiday, marking Audrey Hepburn's breakthrough performance.
