Rome Bed and Breakfast Inns

Where to Stay in a B and B in Rome

By , About.com Guide

Rome has many bed and breakfast inns, ranging from inexpensive to luxurious. Staying in a B and B is a good way to meet local people and travelers and have personalized attention. A bed and breakfast inn can also be more economical than a hotel although there aren't usually as many amenities.

Flavor of Italy B and B

Flavor of Italy is a small, personal B&B outside Rome just a short commuter train ride into the center. The owners do everything possible to help guests plan their days in Rome and enjoy their stay. You can spend the day in Rome, then escape the crowds and enjoy dinner in a local trattoria or you can arrange to have dinner at the B&B. Another plus in summer is the swimming pool. They also have a vacation apartment and cooking classes. I've stayed here myself.
