Why Rome now?

Rome is a city that works in every season – but in winter it shows itself at its most pleasant. The famous sights such as the Colosseum and the Roman Forum and the Trevi Fountain are far more relaxed to visit without the summer crowds. The Vatican with St. Peter’s Basilica and the Vatican Museums is also just a few minutes’ walk from the Prati neighbourhood.

Away from the big highlights, it’s worth strolling through the neighbourhoods: Testaccio is known for its markets and Roman cuisine, Trastevere for its winding alleys and restaurants. You really should try authentic Roman classics – cacio e pepe, amatriciana or carciofi alla giudia in the Jewish Quarter. A slice of pizza al taglio from a bakery is part of the experience, as is an espresso at the bar.

Best Time to Travel & Practical Tips

Late January is winter in Rome – daytime temperatures are usually between 10 and 14 degrees, and nights can get noticeably cooler. Rain is possible, so pack a light jacket and an umbrella. In return, prices are lower than in spring and the city isn’t overcrowded. For getting around, public transport is a good option: metro lines A and B as well as buses take you to all the main sights, and tickets are available from machines and kiosks.

A real money-saving tip: many museums and attractions are free or discounted on the first Sunday of the month – check this before your trip. Also allow for longer walks, because in the old town you’ll discover the most beautiful corners between appointments. And: breakfast is included in the hotel price, so you can start the day well fuelled.

Hotel Marc’Aurelio in Detail

Hotel Marc’Aurelio is located in the Prati neighbourhood, right near the Vatican. The location is ideal for anyone who wants to reach St. Peter’s Basilica, the Vatican Museums and Castel Sant’Angelo on foot.

Rome in 3 Days: A Realistic Short Plan

Three days are enough for a good first impression of Rome. This plan is deliberately kept relaxed:

• Day 1: Arrival and check-in at the hotel. Afternoon walk through Prati to St. Peter’s Basilica and Castel Sant’Angelo. Dinner at a nearby trattoria.
• Day 2: Early start to the Colosseum and Roman Forum (booking tickets online in advance is worth it). In the afternoon, through the Centro Storico with the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain and Piazza Navona.
• Day 3: In the morning, the Vatican Museums or a stroll through Trastevere. In the afternoon, last souvenirs, then return flight to Cologne.
