The neighborhood buzzes with traditional trattorias serving arancini and pasta alla norma between baroque churches and ornate palazzos. Boutique hotels in converted historic buildings offer frescoed ceilings and intimate courtyards for your stay. Most attractions sit within walking distance, though expect uneven cobblestones and steps throughout this compact district.
