Our top picks close to this hotel
For families
Within the depths of Villa Borghese Park, families will be delighted to find the Bioparko di Roma. This zoo actively encourages questioning minds and kids will come alive at the range of animals on display there. The foundation that runs the Bioparko is heavily involved in conservation work and research into wildlife.
For romance
Off the beaten track a little, you will find the Janiculum Hill, where, in summertime, you will find original puppet shows which just beg to have a rug laid out before them to watch. Curl up with a bottle of wine warmed by the sun and enjoy some lazy down time.
For culture
Follow in the footsteps of the founder of Rome. Legend has it that a she wolf found twin brother Romulus and Remus on the banks of the River Tiber and nursed them as they were her own. In later life Romulus killed his twin brother at The Palatine and founded the city that would become Rome. This site later became the home of the first Emperor Augustus and underneath it all a cave named the Lupercal – the relics of this story live on.
For shopping
The flea markets at Porta Portese provides an opportunity for the savvy shopper to pick up a bargain or two, although the competition for trinkets and finds is fierce here. So elbows at the ready, and shop!
For eating out
You cannot visit Rome and not sample an authentic, rustic Roman pizza. Forget the rest and try the best at La Gatta Mangiona where the bases are thin and crunchy and the toppings are sometimes simple and sometimes experimental but always out of this world.
For nightlife
The Rock Castle Cafe is a disco bar located in the bowels of the old city dungeons. With its dark, gothic feel, interesting night people come from all over the city to sip cocktails and rock the night away.
