Just two minutes stroll from Rome's central railway station at Termini - the Hotel Aquarium is on Piazza Manfredo Fanti - bang in the historic heart of things. With a number of metro stations nearby, you can quickly be wherever you want in the Eternal City, though many of the major sights (including the Colosseum and the Roman Forum) are within walking distance for most visitors. Walking is the best way to see a bewilderingly rich and diverse city, with buildings from the Classical era, Baroque, Renaissance and modern period sitting side by side. The rooms at Rome's Hotel Aquarium are comfortably air conditioned and soundproofed, all with private bathroom, direct-dial phone and TV. Breakfast is provided, and with rooms sleeping up to four, this is a perfect base for family groups visiting Rome.
