[@alisonberry7014]

Thank you for all the information in your videos, these are exactly the kind of things that I want to know when I have the good fortune to visit Rome again. I have been there several times, and my favourite place to stay was an Airbnb in Trastevere. I loved the apartment and neighbourhood so much that I returned a second time. The area is charming with a real buzz and lots of excellent food. On another visit to the city, I stayed in a small hotel in a side street near Trevi fountain. Although there were some restaurants serving really good food, the area felt cramped and crowded with too many shops selling tacky souvenirs.

[@RozierRoma]

That is my exact thoughts about the Trevi area. I know I never stayed there, but that’s really why I’ve never stayed there. I felt like I really didn’t need to stay there since I’ve been over there several times and that’s the vibe I get. You and me both, Love, Trastevere

[@debsterlee3801]

Your videos have been so helpful and this one just made my day. Going to Rome for the first time in November (solo female travler) and booked my hotel in the Largo Argentina neighborhood. So glad it is your favorite! You have confirmed everything that I thought about it. Can't wait to go to Pizza Florida!. Thanks and keep up the good work.

Prati should be way higher if you want a great mix of Italian life and tourism. The food is outstanding, it close to PdP too which gets overlooked too much. I could go on… air bnbs are more affordable and larger…etc 😊 PS. Theses videos are so good and are a must for anyone traveling to Rome. Keep up the great work!

[@RozierRoma]

Perhaps you are right. I have stayed in the Prati area twice but maybe 3 times will be the charm. I did like it as it was more of a typical day to day neighborhood and I did feel safe throughout the area. I will give it a try again someday. Thanks for your input.

[@ArcheryGeek]

@@RozierRoma I didn’t mean it was for everyone 😊. If you like to travel (walk a lot ) to tourist spots and you want to eat with locals it’s a bit easier. It also has fun shopping and the best gelato 🍧 Gelateria La Romana.

Actually, if you stay around Castel Sant'Angelo, you only have to traverse the Ponte Sant'Angelo to be in the historic centre, and Piazza Navona or Largo di Torre Argentina are not so far. Obviously, you must love to walk...

Great Info for sure. You guys do a GREAT JOB! We have been Rome 3 times and use it as a base to go all over. We have stayed in the area of Piazza de Popolo which is great for Day Trips. leaving the city. We stayed in the Trevi district and it was a little more pricey and louder for sure. This past February we stayed at an Airbnb in Monti and loved it. Great view of the Coliseum. Loved the neighborhood restaurants/bars/shops> Shopped at a local grocery store chain called Conad which was pretty cool.. May have to check out the Camo de Flori on our next trip. You are probably right. A lot of it depends on when you visit for sure. What area of Rome do you live in?? My wife would loved to have a small place over there. Thanks again for sharing your videos.

Thanks for the great video. Very informative. We are planning to visit Rome in February (first two weeks) next year. After watching your video, I'm tossing up between Largo Argentina and Campo De Fiori, Monti and Piazza Navona and Pantheon neighborhoods. Where do you recommend for first timer in Rome? Also, what time do the shops open and close in Feb? Thank you in advance. Much appreciated!

[@RozierRoma]

Campo, Largo, Pantheo and Navona area all close together. You can't go wrong with these. Find a hotel or Airbnb you like and let that decide for you. For first time I think it is better then Monti as they are more central and walkable. Everything is Open in February, great time to be in Rome.

[@edc629]

@@RozierRoma Thank you for your prompt response and advised. Much appreciated. We are still contemplating if we can stay 2 nights at Naples or just day trip. If we decided to have a day trip to Naples, I guess it still better to stay at either Campo, Largo, Pantheo and Navona area than Monti.

[@RozierRoma]

Between the 2 areas can be a hard decision. Good news you can't make a bad decision, as both are great. For me I know the Campo area better so I tend to go there but if I know Monti as well as I do Campo I may have a different opinion. If you are doing several day trip from Rome getting tot he station from Monti is easier. With high speed rain a day trip to Napoli is what I recommend for the first time. 1 hour each way which is less time than taking the bus across Rome. In Naples focus an historical center and eating the best food in Italy! Also the Spanish quarter is lots of fun. Everything is much less expensive in Naples. Want a great meal? Get to Nannella but get there a little before it opens for lunch or dinning.as the lines can be long. Very entertaining meal!

We stayed in Trevi on last visit to Rome. A 5-star hotel (Harry's Bar) about 150 metres from the Trevi fountain. It is a great location but is massively overrun by tourists and we were there in Oct 2022. If you are OK with massive over-tourism then I can highly recommend Trevi area because of the location. Watch out for the pickpockets at all times! We walked everywhere, day and night, seemed safe. I do agree with your top-3 arear because we have been to Rome about 10 times so far and I lived in Rome for about 12 months in the past (in the Viale Regina Margherita area). BTW - yes, we loved Tivoli too, last visited it during Oct 2022 trip to Rome. Another recommended visit tip - Ostia Antica, take a train for Rome Pyramida station in Rome, about 30-40 (?) minutes commuter train and walk to Ostia Antica ancient site from the train station. Note: the Roman ruins are uncovered so check weather forecast and dress appropriately - sun protection or rain protection.

We stayed near the Spanish steps on Via Del Corso Street. It was a very basic, small apartment, but it was all we needed and just a little over €100 a night. We would leave the apartment at 5/6am and walk to whichever site we wanted. We were first in line at the collosseum and the vatican museums. We only used a taxi once or twice and we used the freenow app to book, it was great and very cheap if you ask me. I definitely would prefer to stay somewhere quieter if we ever go to Italy again, though. There was a lot of homelessness and some aggressive beggers.

I do not see homelessness so much in Rome, sure there is some but not currently a huge problem. Have you thought about staying just outside or Rome like in Tivoli? You should give it a try!

We will be staying in Hotel Villa San Pio near the Testacio neighborhood in April 2025. Good location or should I find another hotel?

After watching what did you think? If you are stying for a long period of time I think you will appreciate it more meaning several weeks. It is more like a typical neighborhood. Trastevere is an option has a bit more personality and the streets are more pedestrian friendly than Testacio. I like Testacio but I do not think it is ideal if it is your first visit. Check out Hotel Santa Maria if it is in your budget it is a great place to stay.

From my experience, Uber is not the cheapest. They only had the Uber black in Rome and if you use the app FREENOW, it’s typically been less expensive than the Uber service in Rome. At least that’s my experience. Glad to hear you’ve had good luck with it. The official taxis really are not that expensive. It’s just that sometimes people get ripped off, Taking advantage of but with the app FREENOW, you can click on the set amount pre-agreed which is kind of nice, but I always use the meter.

Duhh!! You want to stay in a central location close to everything. Get ready to pay an extra $200 per night or else stay in a lower quality hotel. Hotels are super expensive in Rome.

Thant why I tell people to visit Rome in off season or August, many options around €100

Did anyone else find Rome difficult to Navigate? A five minute walk from Piazza Novana to the Pantheon took 1/2 hour. I kept thinking I was headed in one direction but was actually going the opposite way. There's no grid! Its all narrow winding streets.😊

So true!

All ancient cities in Italy are like this. The streets grid was just something Romans did, in some measure: decumanus and cardo were the two main streets that crossed orthogonally in the centre of the city (the forum), and from them started the other streets. But the secondary streets were quite weirdily traced. And in the Middle Ages, when the cities were built on hills and enclosed in walls, the limited space and the defence needs brought to very narrow and winding streets.

Here is a great option for you.www.airbnb.com/rooms/37580592?guests=1&adults=1&s=67&unique_share_id=146c1a82-7ab0-4af6-b7be-9341aa95f939. Located in Tivoli, a short train ride from Rome, plus the town of Tivoli is great. The Airbnb has 2 bedrooms and cost about $100 per night, saving you hundreds per night compared to staying in the Rome center. It will be a better experience that you can imagine. Good luck!
