HOW TO GET

Airport

The Hotel Ergife is not far from one of the main Rome airports and is well connected with transport from Rome Airport to hotel. The hotel is to be found 10 km from the Termini Station and is surely the best choice for those travelling by train. The Hotel Ergife Palace is only 4 km from Il Grand Raccordo Anulare and 25 km from Fiumicino airport.

From the airport Leonardo da Vinci (Fiumicino) a direct train (Leonardo Express) leaves from the airport every 30 minutes and links Fiumicino to Rome Termini from early in the morning until 22.00. Once at Termini it is possible to take the METRO line A direction BATTISTINI, CORNELIA stop. From CORNELIA take the bus No. 246 for only three stops.

By car

Take Il Grande Raccordo Anulare in the Fiumicino direction. Exit No. 1 AURELIA – CITTA DEL VATICANO. Then turn left after about 3 km onto Via Lombardi.

What to visit in Rome?

As the Eiffel Tower is to Paris, the silhouette of the Flavian Amphitheatre is to Rome. The largest structure left to us by Roman antiquity, the Colosseum, located in the Historic Center, still provides the model for sports arenas - present-day football stadium design is clearly based on this oval Roman plan.

The Colosseum was large enough for theatrical performances, festivals, circuses, or games, which the Imperial Court and high officials watched from the lowest level, aristocratic Roman families on the second, the populace on the third and fourth.

The Vatican is the smallest independent state in the world, with an area of less than half a square kilometer, most of it enclosed by the Vatican walls. Inside are the Vatican palace and gardens, St. Peter's Basilica, and St. Peter's Square, an area ruled by the Pope, the supreme head of the Roman Catholic Church. This compact space offers a lot of things to see, between its museums and the great basilica itself.

One of the city's most popular tourist attractions, this 17th-century masterpiece has been immortalized in films until it is almost a required visit. Throwing a coin into the Trevi Fountain is a tradition that is supposed to assure your return to Rome.

The fountain depicts the sea god Neptune, with horses, tritons, and shells. The water swirls around the figures and the artificial rocks, and collects in a large basin, always filled with coins.
