Rome Hotels - Lodging in Rome
Rome is one of the richest cities in history and art of Italy, without a doubt one of the few cities in the world to be worth a visit at any cost.
If we look at the numbers relating to hotel accommodation in the Eternal City, we realize why you hear so much about 'Roman hospitality.'
Not to mention farms, residences, hostels, the numbers are truly staggering: 950 hotels, B & B 1000, 750 houses, 500 apartment, 10 campsites, 220 religious institutes are ready to offer accommodation..
In 2009, data released by the City of Rome spoke well of 160,000 beds. The tourists seem to prefer living in a largely historical center of Rome, home to 65% of Roman hotels.
About 10,000 beds are reserved for younger, who prefer instead hostels and campsites.
The priceless heritage upon which its bases since the Roman times, leaves no room for doubt: visit the Colosseum or the Roman Forum is an unforgettable experience, as well as venture into the catacombs, climb the steps leading to the Dome St. Peter in the Vatican, or be ensnared by the magic of Piazza Navona, with three of the most admired fountains of Rome, but especially with the cream of the entertainment square, with mimes and characteristic portrait painters and cartoonists. The top is reached, however, Rome St. Peter's Square at the Vatican. It 'impossible not to be fascinated by the beauty and number of works of art in the open in the Square by a glance the most exciting in the world: - The Basilica of St. Peter with the immense dome of Michelangelo; - The colonnade of Bernini, which has some 284 columns and 88 pillars that create different visual effects depending on the point of observation; - The central obelisk of Ramses II; - Access to the Square Via Conciliazione.
All emotions to experience first hand, because all the documentaries and photographs of the world can not replace a visit in person the most loved and visited cities in Italy.
The simple act of throwing a coin into the beautiful Trevi Fountain hoping to return in the shortest possible time mirarla, or enjoy a cappuccino in the numerous cafes in the Eternal City, has no value!
And what about the Colosseum? While the Pyramids are the most iconic images of ancient Egypt, we can say that the Coliseum is sen'altro ancient Rome, but also modern. Fully integrated into the plan of Roman roads, the magnificent monument stands 'far' in its austerity, but 'at hand', right along one of the busiest streets of Rome.
Another busy corner of Rome is one in which the Pantheon is located, an authentic jewel of Roman architecture, with a splendid dome 43 meters high and its great central eye that, in the summer solstice at noon exactly penetrated the rays of the sun in the building, creating incredible play of light within.
It 'still very important to note that Rome is not just art and monuments: Roman know the real (not the' Romans' - as we find them fully dressed with tunics, swords and helmets near the Coliseum!) In the market Porta Portese, or those who walk in the streets around Piazza di Spagna, is to see two sides of same coin!
Elegant and chaotic, monumental and simple, like the hotels in this wonderful city for all tastes and all pockets. We warn the reader that Rome is not part of the city 'hit and run', because it is absolutely necessary to stay at least a week in order to claim to have just met.
