Rome is the only city in the world where one can find historical and archaeological sites covering nearly 3000 years of history: from the Etruscan civilization, started around 750 B.C., to the modern and innovative architectural operas of the 21st Century like the new music auditorium designed by the world famous architect Renzo Piano. According to your tastes and preferences you’ll have the opportunity to choose a typical Rome hotel in the ancient centre or a modern hotel in Rome in one of the nice residential areas surrounding the old city.
Rome still has monuments and buildings of the era of the 7 kings, of the Republican period and, of course, of the Empire, when the Italian capital was the centre of the world and the most powerful city ever seen in history! The imposing Pantheon, that was built 20 centuries ago, was at first a pagan temple and then became a catholic church. Trastevere, with its buildings of the middle age, the statues of the renaissance exposed in the Museum of Villa Borghese, the Vatican and the Cappella Sistina painted by Michelangelo are just a few examples of what Rome can offer to its visitors.
But Rome is not just history, the Eternal city is the capital of shopping where, whilst staying in your hotel in Rome, you’ll be able to buy the best Italian brands; Rome is the place where you can taste all the delicious dishes of the Italian cuisine: fish, meat, pasta, cakes in nice family run or in sophisticated and trendy restaurants. Rome is also the capital of nightlife, with the trendy bars and pubs and cafès of Campo dè Fiori and Trastevere or in discos of Testaccio.
Last but not least, Rome is a city where you can go to ski in wintertime with just one hour drive from the centre: Campo Felice or Terminillo in the Appennini mountains, in the National park of the Abruzzi. Daytime sunbathing and having fun in the soft snows of the mountains and in the evening clubbing in the area of Campo dè Fiori. And in summertime you can enjoy the beautiful island of Ponza, with its unfouled beaches, whilst leaving in a hotel in the ancient centre of Rome.
