Instagram in Rome: trattorias, Via dei Condotti and the historic centre

Rome receives an average of 7 to 10 million tourists a year, more in holy years, and is the third most visited city in the EU. The Colosseum draws about 4 million visitors and the Vatican Museums about 4.2 million.

Roman food has a strong identity: spaghetti alla carbonara, cacio e pepe, saltimbocca alla romana and carciofi alla giudia, the fried artichokes of Roman Jewish cooking. Testaccio, the old slaughterhouse quarter, gave the city coda alla vaccinara, still on many menus.

Fashion adds a luxury side. Valentino, Bulgari and Fendi were founded or are based in Rome, and Gucci, Prada, Chanel and Armani have boutiques on Via dei Condotti near the Spanish Steps.

Views are everywhere, from the Pincio gardens over Piazza del Popolo to the obelisk in Piazza Navona and the Villa Borghese, so even a small shop has a backdrop.

A trattoria in Trastevere can film cacio e pepe being tossed at the table. A jeweller can post a close-up carousel of new pieces. A hotel near Termini can show a rooftop breakfast. A gelateria in Prati can share a new flavour each week.

Content in English or Arabic as standard; Italian on request, checked by a native speaker on your side. Paid partnerships are labelled under Italian advertising rules.

Monthly reports compare saves, shares, direction taps and bookings between visitors and local followers.

Romans themselves are a big audience too, especially for aperitivo bars, bakeries and neighbourhood restaurants in Prati, Testaccio and San Lorenzo, where regulars matter more than one-time visitors and local hashtags work better than tourist ones.

• Trattorias. Pasta at the table.

The Rome market in brief

Rome is the capital and largest city of Italy, with 2.7 million people in the city and 4.2 million in the Metropolitan City. Its economy is mainly services: public administration, tourism, commerce, finance and insurance, IT, telecoms, aerospace and defence, media and the creative industries. Enel, Eni, Leonardo, Poste Italiane and Ferrovie dello Stato have their headquarters here, and the FAO, IFAD and the World Food Programme are based in the city.

Local habits we build into the plan:

• Trattorias, boutiques and hotels: Instagram content for visitors and Romans.
• Energy, aerospace, public-sector and international bodies: LinkedIn content for partners and staff.
• Clinics, schools and home services: Facebook posts for families across the city.

Rome sectors that sell on Instagram

Sectors named in Rome’s economy and how Instagram serves each:

• Restaurants and cafes: Menus, plating and short kitchen clips are what diners browse before booking, so Reels and saved carousels do most of the work. Playbook
• Hotels and travel: Room tours, local-guide carousels and guest content sell the stay before people compare prices. Playbook
• Jewellery: Close-up Reels and carousels of pieces, sizing and gifting moments drive enquiries. Playbook
