Find Hotels in Rome, Italy

one second you re walking in a really narrow street and then you end up in front of the greatest fountain of all, Fontana Dei trevi! The great Piazza San Pietro & vatican, the Colosseum, all behold some of the greatest history on Earth. Will surely return to this beautiful city and will stay much longer next time!

A city with parking problem so you will easily see how people spend 1 hour just looking for parking space.

The shops are fantastic as a women they had everything at reasonable prices. There is so much to see and do. Have a look at Lonley Planet, as I can't list them all. We will be back and staying at the same hotel.

Can be a bit cleaner but with such an influx of tourists this might prove difficult.

Despite appearing to be 'out of control manic' the Italians are remarkable drivers, without exception using a sliding scale of vulnerability where pedestrians are accorded absolute priority, followed by two wheeled vehicles and then four wheeled vehicles according to size. Drivers would frequently not just pull slightly over to allow a traffic splitting scooter to slip through, but even reverse or move forward to make a gap big enough. The only caveat to keeping one's sanity was that as a rider of a scooter, you had to be fast, aiming for and negotiating traffic snarl-ups with confidence. If you didn't, a horde of scooter-borne locals would thrash past on either side, looking for the front of the queue to get away from the lights first. If you've been a dispatch rider, you'll love it, if not you'll be overwhelmed, but fear not, the Italians will take care of even the most inept as long as you remember not to swerve about as you go in case an overtaking bike clips you from behind. This is my third stay in Rome and fourth time I've used two wheels in Italy and the awareness and care afforded to other road users is universal. Drivers seem to very very chilled. I think because one can ride a 125cc scooter on a car license there so car drivers HAVE a choice of whether drive or ride, and those that use a car expect the traffic jams and do not resent two wheeled riders. oh, one more thing, the black square cobbled roads around the old part ore horrible on a scooter, pummelling the rider and bike like a MIRA proving track.

It has sophisticated and elegant places and women tend to dress nicely.Men are handsome. Is Europe at its best

Every time it reveals itself with something new. In this city you must take things slowly...Excellent shopping, with independent craftsmen, look out for hand made gloves and hats

Very clean. Even a streetside beggar helped with directions. Wish we could stay longer.

There are so many types of places to eat so restaurants don't mean the food is better than tratorias or pizzerias, just more expensive but depends on what you are looking for too.

Local churches are intimate and buildings are naturally historical. Different side of Rome and really enjoyable.

;-)

Alfedo's is a good place to eat.

Make sure vthe taxi puts the meter on!!! Didnt find the people very friendly even though we tried Italian with them. At our hotel the Desk Manager was rude and abrupt, not what you would expect. The sightseeing is un believable and we are so glad we stayed there apart from a few hiccups.

The beautiful artwork you see in these places are magnificent, photos would not do it justice and you have to just see it with your own eyes. It is quite a busy city compared to Venice for example. If you are after history and culture, Rome is definitely a place to go see.

Due to summer vacation peak period,all the signseeing places full of tourists. You can see the very long queue in all tourist attraction areas. It take around two to three hours to get in the Chapel at Vantican. Besides, the pick pockets also quite active in Rome Metro stations.A very young Gypsy or Romanian girl was targeting my bag at the beginning however,soon she realised my bag was not easy to picked as got zipped. so she picked another women's wallet from her hand bag. A local women told me this incidents happened all the times. Even the locals feel uneasy. Overall, I have a question, Rome make so much money from the tourism but where the money go? Pretty sure, it doesn't go for maintain the cleanse, tidy,organise and safety in the city.

Taxis were easy to get around in. Great histroical sites. The church of St Maria Maggiore was magnificent. The Colliseum was very cool, as well as dining right across from the Pantheon.

The underground is not well signposted. There are not many seats in the squares which makes it hard for elderly folk like us to linger and admire the buildings. I find the discarding of cigarette butts a real issue in Rome and they must cause huge pollution problems. There should be butt disposal bins and an anti smoking campaign. Smoking in restaurants should be banned.

Lots of restaurants have seats outside so you can people watch.

People in Rome is little bit rough and not polite. The safety for traveler is poor. There's many case of stealing happen there. Overall the city is very beautiful and one of the best place to be visited.

Best gelato - Palazzo del Freddo (10 minutes walk from Manzoni train station). Be prepared for long queue - 3 scoopes for 2 euro.

We walked everywhere and I think that helps you to see those extra things.

... But the people was not very nice .. It was hard for me to make conversation most of them can not speak english ...
