Hotel Campo de’ Fiori

Hotel Campo de' Fiori sits on Via del Biscione, a short street running off the north-eastern corner of the market square, which puts Piazza Navona, the Pantheon, the Jewish Ghetto and the river within an easy stroll. It is a boutique hotel, and its central location makes it a popular base for travellers who want to explore the historic centre on foot.

Rooms come in Classic and Deluxe categories, from singles and doubles to triples, and all have free Wi-Fi, soundproofing, air conditioning, a minibar, a safe and satellite TV. On the sixth floor, Top Floor doubles each have a small private terrace with a view, which is worth booking if outdoor space matters to you. The hotel also manages apartments in a historic building nearby, each with a kitchenette, bathroom and daily cleaning, available as doubles, triples and quadruples, which are useful for families or longer stays.

The highlight is the multi-level roof terrace, which offers 360-degree views over the domes, bell towers and rooftops of the centre. It is open to all guests, including those staying in the apartments, and it is the ideal place to bring a glass of wine at sunset and watch the light change over the city. An exclusive transfer service to the hotel can be arranged.

The hotel suits couples, friends travelling together and families who take an apartment, at a mid-range price. The streets around Campo de' Fiori are lively in the evening, especially at weekends, but the rooms' soundproofing helps.

Termini station is best reached by bus or taxi. For breakfast, the Roscioli bakery and café are close by, and the Pantheon is a short walk for an early visit before the crowds.
