Rome

No one ever leaves Rome disappointed. This vibrant capital city has over 2,000 years of history for you to explore, along with gastronomic delights to sample and designer stores to tempt you. Choose from the carefully selected Rome hotels below.

Getting to your hotel:

By bus:

From Fiumicino airport: Train to Termini Station (every 30 mins, c.8 Euros).
The following hotels are within 5 mins walk from here: Teti, Scott House, Flower Garden, Impero, Piemonte, Contilia, Giglio dell'Opera, Genova, Marconi, Gioberti, Palladium Palace, Domus Aurea, Champagne Palace, Giubileo, Esquilino, Clarin, Quisisana and D'Este. A Short taxi ride will take you to all other hotels except the ARShotel and Millenium which are 15-20 mins by taxi (public transport routes also possible).
Once at Termini station there are plenty of buses going to different parts of the city, or the metro system, which is a simple network of two lines.

From Ciampino airport: Bus to Ciampino Station, then train to Termini and follow instructions above. From Ciampino train station there are trains to the city centre every 15 mins or the underground from Anagnina every 10 mins.

By taxi:

Public taxi from Fiumicino and Ciampino airports takes approx 45 mins to 1 hour (c. 40 Euros).

Getting around:

If you don't mind a good full day's walking, Rome is ideal to explore on foot, with every corner you turn unveiling a new building or piazza of historical and cultural interest. However, some sights such as the Vatican and Castel St Angelo are a bit further out. The best way to get around the city is by public transport. Bus/tram tickets can be bought in advance from news stands and tobacconists, but you will need change for the metro. Only use the yellow and white licensed taxis, and check the meter before paying. Ignore all touts at the airport and at Termini station as they are likely to charge you 4 times the official rate! Also be aware of pickpockets especially in the area of the Colosseum and Vatican.

Other Useful Information

In line with Italian Law, most hotels will still offer the option of smoking rooms but smoking will be banned in all public areas of the hotel including the reception, restaurants, breakfast rooms etc. However, some premises will have a separate area for smokers where ventilation is installed.
