Where can you stay during touring Rome? We will let you know by this article. The 'Eternal City' holds a fascination for young people, tourists, businessmen, pilgrims and anyone in search of history, art, culture, business and entertainment.
This means that Rome's tourist season remains uninterrupted all year round and despite the ample choice of hotels, it is not always easy to find a room at the last minute, so make sure to book at least a couple of weeks in advance. The majority of the luxury and five-star hotels can be found in the centro storico (historic centre). Naturally, they are as elegant and refined as their ancient surroundings, but with an efficiency and courtesy that is modern and unobtrusive.
There are several excellent hotels on fashionable Via Veneto including the Ambasciatori Palace, the Hotel Majestic, the Westin Excelsior and the Eden. Of particular note amongst the 'four stars' are Del Sole al Pantheon, the Valadier in Piazza del Popolo, the D'Inghilterra and the Dei Borgognoni near the lively Piazza di Spagna.
The most popular three-star hotels are those that are situated around Campo dei Fiori (the district of the young and the wealthy), full of charming little piazzas with interesting nooks and crannies. Here you will find the Hotel Teatro di Pompeo and the Albergo del Sole. At Aventino (an oasis of peace amongst gardens, cloisters and attractive churches) you will find the comfortable Domus Aventina.
If you are fascinated by ancient Rome, then the Bolivar and the Richmond will make your stay even more magical. Many of the traditional pensioni (bed and breakfasts) are privately run and manage to maintain a simple and friendly atmosphere. This makes them preferable to the big hotels, especially for prolonged stays. There are lots of pensioni to be found around the main railway station, Stazione Termini, like the Grifo. In Trastevere, the capital's most lively and colourful area, you will find La Cisterna.
We hope this information regarding a quality accommodation in Rome will help you to find a right place for stay according to your budget and will make your Rome trip more enjoyable. |
