Pigna is the name of rione IX of Rome, located in Municipio I of the city. The name means "pine cone" in Italian, and the symbol for the rione is the colossal bronze pine cone, the Pigna.
The giant bronze pine cone (Pigna) once decorated a fountain in Ancient Rome next to a vast Temple of Isis. There water flowed copiously from the top of the pinecone.
History

The Pigna was moved first to the Old Basilica of Saint Peter, where Dante saw it and employed it in the Divina Commedia as a simile for the giant proportions of the face of Nimrod.
In the 15th century it was moved to its current location, the upper end of Bramante's Cortile del Belvedere, which is now usually called in its honour the Cortile della Pigna, linking the Vatican and the Palazzo del Belvedere. There it stands today under Pirro Ligorio's vast niche at the far end, flanked by a pair of Roman bronze peacocks brought from Hadrian's mausoleum, the Castel Sant'Angelo.

The price includes:
Fitted sheets, towels, electricity and gas.

Rome

Our host was not there when we arrived. But after contacting her, she opened the door remotely and sent a video to how to access the apartment. The apartment was clean, but very small for a party of four. But we knew that going in we made the most of it and it worked out very well. Loved the location. Everything was within easy walking distance. Give us a great opportunity to see Central with no problems.

Fabulous

My husband and I stayed for 3 nights! Apartment was very clean and in the perfect location! We could walk to almost everywhere! Wonderful restaurants near by and only a couple minute walk to a taxi if needed. Mariano was very welcoming and communicated well with us leading up to and during our stay!

Cozy apartment close to everything

We stayed one week. The bed was comfortable and the a/c worked well in the bedroom as it was in the 90’s the week we were there. The apartment is a short walk to the Pantheon. There are several close grocery stores. We didn’t cook but had breakfast and wine and cheese in the apartment. The kitchen is in a cabinet so not too much room but fine for our needs. There are a lot of good restaurants nearby.

Wonderful Apartment in the Heart of Rome

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this wonderful property. Our host, Mariano, started communicating with us several days before we arrived to make sure we were all set for the stay. He met us at the property and gave us a detailed explanation of everything we needed to know for the property and the general area of the city. The apartment was clean and well-stocked with everything we needed for our 3 day stay and was a nice size for our family of 3. It’s located on a quaint street just a 5-10 minute walk from the Pantheon. We also were able to walk to the Colosseum, Spanish Steps, Campo de Fiori, Piazza Navona, Trastevere, and the Vatican. We didn’t use public transportation, but walked by both taxi stands and bus stops close to the apartment. There’s a supermarket conveniently located less than a block away and too many good restaurants and cafes to count in the area. The surrounding area was safe to explore and lively both during the day and in the evening. We would recommend the apartment to anyone traveling to Rome.

Amazing stay in Rome's Historic Center

I LOVED my stay at the Raffaello Inn during the first week of June. The front of the building, with its flowering ivy, looks like something from a fairy tale. The apartment in the 500-year-old building is comfortable, clean, and charming! Mariano greeted me when I arrived and gave me a thorough tour of the apartment, as well as tips on where to eat in the neighborhood. He was so friendly, funny, and welcoming! This location is fantastic—right near all the top sights. The next street over, there is a supermarket. I was able to save so much by getting a few groceries in and eating a few meals at "home," a cafe within a two-minute walk.

Quaint

The apartment was just as decribed, very lovely. Mariano was so easy to work with. He met us at the property and gave us a wonderful overview of the city. The location was nice. It was walking distance to most attractions. We took a cab to the colleseum and to Vatican City. If you prefer to stay in the middle of the action, you need to change locations. Unfortunately, we were unable to use the airconditioner (until June, we visited in May) due to the company in the area. Because we had to keep the windows open, there was much noise from traffic, sirens and a particular bird that kept making sounds all night long. My husband named it Doe-doe bird! People sometimes walk and talk in front of the property. Overall impression was good!! Thank you Mariano for everything!

Comfy stay close to Pantheon and Trevi Fountain

This was our first time in Rome. Neri met us to take luggage to store until check in and directed us to a very nice restaurant steps away. The bed is comfortable and the Nespresso machine for morning espresso is a fun touch! The hosts were very communicative. A lovely stay in Roma!

Serenity in the City

The Raffello Inn is a charmingly decorated apartment in the perfect location. We could easily walk to the Pantheon, Spanish Steps, St. Peter’s and Trvi Fountain. Our hostess Neri was very gracious and responsive to our needs. She arranged a driver to take us to the airport after 4 glorious days in a well-appointed , quiet air-conditioned apartment. I will definitely recommend to family and friends staying in Rome.

Location, Location, Location

Centrally located to all of the major sites in Rome! We were within walking distance to Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, Pantheon, Capitoline Hill, Roman Forum, Colosseum, Palatine Hill, Vatican City and the Trastevere area known for their restaurants. But first... Neri was the best host! She was very accommodating to our schedule. We had previously booked tours that did not coincide with check in times and she worked with us to drop off our luggage at a time that worked with our schedule. Mariano met us at the apartment and he couldn't have been more accommodating... Making sure we knew where everything was, showing us all of the amenities of the apartment, how to use the keys / apartment access, and even made some great restaurant suggestions in Campo di Fiore! Overall a great experience, cute apartment, and perfect location. we will definitely be reaching out to Neri next time we come to Rome!

Close to it all!

Neri and Mariano were great! They are both friendly. Communication was consistent and timely. Airport service is provided for a fee and worth every Euro. They provided a binder with a list of restaurants and other items like a nearby grocery store and pharmacy. The apartment was clean and had good air conditioning! Walking distance to the Pantheon, Victor Emmanuel Monument, the Colosseum, Forum, Trevi Fountain, Piazza Navona, and the Spanish Steps. If not into walking, there is a taxi stand within a 5-10 minute walk.
