Rome is one of the most visited cities of the world yet the number of its hotels is not up to the task. As a result the price of a hotel room in Rome is higher than in Paris. See Our Blog on Paris & Rome Hotel Price Index.
The matter came up with urgency right before the Jubilee in 2000, which was supposed to bring over the Eternal City millions of tourists. In 1998 a Law was passed legalizing vacation rentals in Rome, today, with the crisis spreading also to the tourist sector the Mairie of Rome is taking important steps back, see Our Blog on Rome Hotel Lobby VS Rome Vacation Rental Industry

As soon as the law was passed we started this website creating what was then the first Holiday Rental Portal in Rome. The purpose was and still is to create an affordable alternative to hotels in Rome. In many ways we have succeeded. The listings are many in number (over 300 at the moment) and affordable in price (ca 70% cheaper per sqmt compared to three star hotels in the same areas).

As of now we've created a software which easily allows you to navigate through our apartments on offer. You can focus your search by area, size or budget and narrow it down to specifics such as dsl internet, terrace, elevator and many more choices.

More than Florence, more than Venice, more than Milan, Rome is Italy's historic & cultural center, packed with architectural wonders and artistic masterpieces from more than two thousand years ago. It is like nothing so much as an open-air museum, that is still vibrant and alive today. Our Rome accommodation is conveniently located in the heart of it all.

It is comprised of the neighborhoods where Julius Caesar conducted business at the Imperial Forum, where Michelangelo painted the ceiling in the Sistine Chapel, and where Fellini filmed La Dolce Vita.
