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.

Dei Consoli

Elegant and refined, with all conveniences, including internet access, hydromassage and meeting rooms.
Des Artistes

A comfortable, no-smoking hotel. Pleasing fabrics, paintings and marble bathrooms create an air of luxury. Rooms also equipped with dataports. One of the best choices in the Termini area, there’s a floor set aside for budget travellers.
Diocletian

Diocletian (284–305) set up a governing system of multiple emperors. A virulent persecutor of the Christians.
Domitian’s Stadium

The outline of this AD 86 stadium is echoed in Piazza Navona, built on top of its remains.
Domus Aventina

A former 14th-century convent with a 17th-century façade, this serene hotel has large, softly coloured rooms. From the balconies and terrace there are great views, and prints, murals and Classical artifacts lend elegance.
Dott. Cesare Lampronti

Although it resembles an art museum, you can buy the work on show here: still lifes, religious paintings, mythological compositions, scenes of Roman life and Neo-Classical statues, variously dating from the 16th to 19th centuries.
Dott. Sergio de Sanctis

Exclusively Italian antiques, mostly elegant 18th- to early 20th-century furnishings and gilt-framed mirrors.
Drunken Ship

One of the liveliest hubs of Campo de’ Fiori’s renowned nightlife, pumping out loud rock music. Very popular with young Romans and foreigners alike. Happy Hour is from 7 to 9pm; brunch is served at weekends.
D’Inghilterra

Hemingway and Liszt are among the distinguished past guests of this 17th-century edifice, right in the heart of the designer boutique district (see High Fashion Boutiques). The lavish rooms have antiques and the marble bathrooms provided with fresh orchids.
E&R Danon

Mostly 18th- to early 20th-century Oriental carpets and prayer rugs, from Persia and India, Tibet and China.
