An ideal choice for a summer escape in Rome - Grand Hotel Gianicolo
🏨✨Grand Hotel Gianicolo
📍📍Address: Viale delle Mura Gianicolensi 107, Rome, Italy
💼🌈In the summer of Rome, we escaped the heat of the city and chose this hotel on Gianicolo Hill, which was a great place to rest. The actual location of the hotel may be slightly away from the city center, but the nearby bus stop can take you to the main attractions easily.
🚖🌻Check-in experience:
The moment you enter the hotel, the classical European decor is impressive. The hotel reception was a bit cold, but the whole process went smoothly. Here, you will feel a peaceful atmosphere that is completely different from the hustle and bustle of the city. One of the highlights of the hotel is the pool area, which is a great place to soak in the pool when the sun is shining. Guests can set up sunbeds and take a break, and enjoy food and drinks at the pool bar. Don't miss the breakfast at the rooftop restaurant, where you can overlook the beautiful view of Vatican City and enjoy a delicious cappuccino, which is a perfect match.
🛏️🏠Room experience:
Although the room is not big, it is clean and tidy. The bed is a bit hard, but the view near the window makes up for it, especially in the morning and at night, the view of Rome outside the window is beautiful. The bathroom is a bit old, and sometimes there is a small amount of water leakage when showering, but it is not a big problem. There is a mini bar in the room, although there is no price tag, you can ask the front desk before drinking. Overall, the room is comfortable and relaxing.
📍🏖️Nearby recommendations:
There are some places worth visiting around the hotel. First of all, it is very convenient to walk 20 minutes from the hotel to the Vatican. And about 10 minutes walk to Trastevere, which is a famous old town in Rome, full of restaurants and bars with different styles. We found some great restaurants, such as Lume - Osteria Alle Scalette, the food is delicious and the price is reasonable, we highly recommend you to try it.
In addition, here are some classic attractions in Rome:
1. Basilica of Our Lady 🎨
2. Roman Forum 🏛️
3. Piazza Navona 🌟
These places are must-see places with a long history and a strong cultural atmosphere.
All in all, although the location of the hotel is a bit far from the center, its beautiful environment, swimming pool, and moderate price make it a good choice for us to escape the summer heat in Rome. Looking forward to visiting again on future trips! 🌸🗺️
