Cheap Hotels in Rome, Italy - Budget City Center Accommodation
Top Five Cheap Hotels in Rome
With the recent proliferation of expensive high end hotels, finding a decent cheap hotel in Rome can be a bit of a sticky wicket. But don't worry; in the land where pizza was invented as a poor man's meal, there are still plenty of budget-friendly rooms that don't completely sacrifice quality for cost.
Your best bet for finding a cheap hotel in Rome, one that allows you access to the city center as well as shelters you in something larger than a shoebox, is to book in advance. Leaving your hotel reservations to the last minute will only result in your having to hike in from outside the city for a glimpse of the Colosseum or a taste of St Peter's.
However, keep in mind that staying outside city limits will afford you higher quality as well as lower rates, and Rome's public transport system can get you from here to there in around 30 minutes.
