As with all European cities, as well as major tourist centers, where in the season (ten months a year from March to October!) visitors fill the center so that the locals can not be seen, Rome literally strewn with hotels ...

Reviews of experts about the hotels in Rome

Rome Areas

Most of the hotels in Rome are centered around the station: by the way, Russian travel agencies prefer to place their clients here . Of course, one must understand , that the district of Termini station - a place quite noisy, fussy and in places dirty . There are always a lot of traders here, and behind the bags and pockets you need the eye and the eye . However, in terms of location, the neighborhood with the station does not necessarily mean a kabinoku in the klopovnik . Here there are quite nice institutions demonstrating the wonders of balancing, , bedside table, TV, wardrobe and shower only three square meters . True, these square meters are worth not less than, for example, in London . At the same time in Rome, everything is really close: for example, a three star hotel near the station Termini - Op imalny choice for lean tourist - hence, say, The Coliseum - 5 minutes away .

to settle in Rome in a hotel costing less than EUR 100 per room will either have to sacrifice a shower or be prepared to be in the local Tmutarakani. The latter, by the way, includes the area "behind the Vatican" - on the one hand it is not so far away, on the other hand it is inconvenient for traveling around Rome.

Very interesting for the tourist options are the districts of Campo di Fiori (Campo di Fiori) and Campo Navona (Campo Navona). No worse than the Trastavere area - and do not be afraid of what it is beyond the river: from here all the sights are within walking distance, the traffic goes well, and the streets themselves are very picturesque. The best option is to rent apartments here, because hotels are expensive.

If the visa already exists and there is no binding to the travel agency, the best place to look for is in the vicinity of Campo de 'Fiori and the Pantheon. There for 120-150 EUR and 150-180 EUR, respectively, rooms are rented, although modest, but with breathtaking views of the numerous domes, roofs and parks of the Eternal City.

Types of accommodation and prices

There are a lot of hotels in Rome, However, one should not count on their unfilledness, it is better to book seats in advance. At the station and in the suburbs, there may always be places, but why once again carry suitcases around the city? The iron rule is that if you want to live in a pleasant place, and even at the height of the season, you need to book the hotel half or two months before the trip.

In this case, do not be afraid of hotels with one or two stars. Here, in the capital, these are usually cozy and cute, although rather close family establishments, where they treat each guest with care.

Three-star hotels, of course, guarantee additional conveniences in a room like a TV and a minibar, but, as a rule, remain rather faceless.

Apartments

By the way, recently it has become more profitable to rent an apartment than to stay in a Roman hotel: already for 120 EUR you can live together on Via Giulia or another no less tempting place. For comparison, the hotel room in the same area will cost from 350 EUR per day. At the same time, you must take into account that the reservation period of the apartments must be at least three nights

Hostels

Of course, the most unpretentious and economical variant of accommodation is in a hostel or monastery (typical for Italy). This pleasure will cost you 20 EUR per night. At the same time, stopping at the monastery, you should strictly observe a very strict regime: in most such places the curfew comes at 23:00, the premises of the opposite sex are not allowed in the premises, and early in the morning it is necessary to release the number so as not to interfere with the cleaning.

Hostels and monastery hotels also need to be booked in advance: not too understanding the church holidays, you can get into a mess. For example, on the days of admission to the saints or on the day of the Pope's birth, several hundred thousand pilgrims flock to Rome, all the hotels are occupied, and nothing can be done about this at all.
