Rome tops most lists of cities to be visited and not without reason. Rome, World Heritage Site, third-most-visited tourist destination in Europe and widely dubbed the Eternal City since the times of the ancient empire, is beautiful and enthralling. It bears a multitude of contrasting faces which can both fascinate and inspire.

The historical centre vaunts wondrous ancient ruins, awe-inspiring temples, imposing monuments and the unrivalled Colosseum. There is so much to see in Italy’s capital that residing centrally, in a budget guest house like the B&B Giovy, is essential to experiencing much of the highlights of Rome. Visit the B&B Giovy Rome Location page for information on where the cheap guest house is in Rome.

The B&B Giovy recommends scaling the dome where an amazing view of Rome can be enjoyed while catching your breath.

Villa Borghese is a beautiful park, just north-east of Piazza del Popolo and is perfect for a stroll, picnic or break from sightseeing. When you want to join the sightseeing trail again head to the unmissable Galleria Borghese with impressive art work including six Caravaggio paintings and spectacular Bernini sculptures.

Ostia is a popular Roman satellite town that is located on the coast with a long stretch of beaches and dunes. Fregene, Lido di Ostia and Anzio are popular beaches however, if you wish to find clearer and more attractive sites head slightly further south to Subaudia or Sperlonga.

There are many good bars, cafes, restaurants and shops surrounding the B&B Giovy Rome. The Santa Maria Maggiore and Piazza dell’Esquilino area is home to some of the oldest and most popular bars and restaurants in Rome.
