Looking for a free place to study or work remotely in Rome? There are plenty of options to choose from. Here are our top picks:

Cinema Troisi – It is a cultural space featuring a state-of-the-art cinema hall, a study room, a foyer-bar, and a terrace. You can use the café or terrace for free to study or work; however, it may get a bit noisy.

Please be aware that to secure a spot in the study room, you should arrive either before 9 am or after 7 pm, as desks and chairs are limited, and the space tends to fill up quickly.

The space is free access and currently accommodates 16 stations. It is located on the ground floor of the museum and is fully accessible, even for people with disabilities.
