To Rome With Love Filming Locations – Rome, Italy

Allen continues his European tourist excursion with To Rome With Love in 2012. And by now, Allen makes no apologies for the postcard perfect scenes, covering just about every tourist cliché in Rome. It’s classic cinematic escapism as we see Rome at it’s impossible best, with various stories of romance and comedy mixed in.

By all accounts, To Rome With Love was a relatively easy production, with the city allowing Allen and his team plenty of access, and the top notch cast enjoying playing around in the beautiful city. What is remarkable is the sheer number of locations used in the film. As you can see, there are points where characters are essentially in the same place, and it seems a shame that they didn’t intersect.

  1. I think that the scene in a car on a trip back from the airport was filmed somewhere on Via Cristoforo Colombo.

    I also believe that the final balcony drinks were shot at the top of a building on Piazza di Spagna. If you look the location up in Google Maps, it seems to me that it is the apartment you see in the triangle between Emilio Pucci, Krizia and Chanel location markers.

    Opera performance celebration was probably filmed in Maison Sibilla in Tivoli, and Tivoli is also probably the spot of those manicured gardens screenshot above.

  2. I think that the hotel lobby with fountain is the lobby of Donna Camilla Savelli Hotel.

    The church you see in the background of the final balcony scene is San Carlo al Corso.

    The scene above with Eisenberg and Baldwin you say was shot at Acquedotto Claudio was actually shot at Villa dei Quintili. Only the car scene with the Sun behind the aqueduct was shot near Acquedotto Claudio.

    I also don’t know where they shot the scene with Gerwig and Eisenberg in front of a newspaper kiosk. Perhaps you could make a screenshot and add it to the unknowns?

  3. And perhaps you could separate Villa dei Quintili (or Villa of the Quintili) and the Villa Quintili. One is a Roman ruin, the other a villa on Appia Antica you can rent for a wedding.

  4. P. S.There’s a tiny error – Leopoldo’s apartment pic number 5 should be where the Leopoldo runs into a procession location is.

      1. No problem! My pleasure. I can’t wait for you to update the article. The page also seems to be a little bit laggy when opening; perhaps it’s something to do with embedded maps. By the way, the Antico Caffè della Pace closed permanently, in 2016, I think. Perhaps you can add that bit of into up there. Thank you!
