DK Travel : Rome

Although functioning as a vibrant, modern capital akin to any in Europe, the unique appeal of Rome is that the entire city is a vast, 3,000-year-old, indoor-outdoor museum. In every quarter you’ll find ancient monuments, art treasures and timeless architecture in churches, galleries and protected ruins. Home to the world’s smallest city, the Vatican, Rome has religion at its heart and history in its soul – a city that dazzles and inspires visitors time and time again.

Carmel

Old-fashioned pensione . The decor is spartan, but there’s a vine-covered terrace and most rooms have double-glazing. A unique touch is the kosher kitchen for use by Jewish guests.
Carnival

Dressing up, parties and pranks.
Caro Diario

This most personal of films (1994) opens with the director, Nanni Moretti, riding his scooter around surburban Rome.
Carriage

Baroque accents and period-style furnishings convey elegance. Two of the rooms open onto the roof garden; two others have terraces.
Casa di Goethe

German author Goethe lived here from 1786 to 1788 (see Wolfgang Goethe), and his letters are on display.
Casa di SS Giovanni e Paolo (Celian)

This house under an ancient church belonged to two Constantinian officials, martyred in AD 362. There is also a series of buildings, including a frescoed nymphaeum, dating from the 1st to 4th centuries.
Casale dei Cedri Resort

Casale dei Cedri is a19th century villa near Saint Peter’s Basilica and Villa Pamphili.

At the first floor we provide 3 bedrooms, each one with a different personality.

Please note that there is no lift to first floor.
Castel Sant’Angelo

Hadrian designed his massive circular tomb in 123-39. Aurelian fortified it in 271 as part of his city walls (see Beyond the City Walls). It was the papal castle for 1,000 years - a viaduct from the Vatican let the popes scurry here in times of crisis. Gregory the Great named it in 590 after a vision of St Michael announced the end of a plague from its tower, commemorated by the bronze statue of a sword-bearing archangel. There are frescoed Renaissance papal apartments and a small arms and armour collection (Etruscan through to the 1900s), plus stunning panoramas from the ramparts.
Castel Sant’Angelo Ramparts

Lazy Tiber River vistas with the Ponte Sant’Angelo directly underneath (see Castel Sant’Angelo).
Castelli Romani
