WELCOME TO GONFALON6
Stay in the heart of Rome
the Palazzo Gonfalone6 is located in the center of Rome, at Via del Gonfalone 6. It stands on the ancient site where the Church of Saints Faustino and Giovita once stood, belonging to the historic Confraternity of the Brescians, a centuries-old foundation that has marked the history of Rome. As a result of the major redevelopment projects launched after 1870 along the banks of the Tiber, the church and adjoining buildings were expropriated Only between 1930 and 1934 was the present building born: an elegant palace overlooking Lungotevere Sangallo, combining Rome’s great history with a refined and imposing style. Today its spaces offer guests a unique stay, where the charm of the past meets modern comfort, giving an authentic experience in the beating heart of the eternal city.
Opposite we find the Oratory of the Gonfalone, built in 1544 and initially dedicated to Ss. Peter and Paul is entrusted precisely to the aforementioned Confraternity of the Gonfalone, the interior holds precious paintings depicting the “Stories of the Passion of Christ.” Since 1960 the oratory has been home to the Roman Polyphonic Choir, which periodically holds concerts there with orchestras and live music. The building stands on the ancient site where the Church of the Saints once stood.

A leisurely 10-minute walk across the historic Vittorio Emanuele II Bridge takes you to Vatican City and then to St. Peter’s Basilica.
The property is also just a few minutes’ walk from Campo de’ Fiori, which hosts a fabulous fruit and vegetable market every morning. Next to Campo de’ Fiori we find Piazza Farnese and Palazzo Farnese (French Embassy).
On the other side of Corso Vittorio Emanuele II, through a charming walk we reach Piazza Navona, Pantheon, Trevi Fountain and Piazza di Spagna, a wonderful area, also ideal for shopping.
Going all the way down Via Giulia, one finds oneself in front of the exclusively pedestrian Sisto Bridge, crossing it one reaches Trastevere, full of small squares narrow streets and alleys that still preserve the character of a popular Roman neighborhood thanks also to the abundant presence of typical trattorias and historic establishments.
