La proprietà — Raffaello
The Raffaello is a charming 3-star hotel in the heart of Rome, with an understated elegance that reflects its 1970s design. The lobby's rich wood tones and plush furniture create a warm atmosphere, while the staff's friendly, no-frills service makes you feel like a local. This hotel suits solo travellers and couples looking for a hassle-free, authentic Roman experience. As you stand in the lobby, you're just a short walk from the Spanish Steps and the Trevi Fountain, with the sounds of the city drifting in through the windows.
Cronache di Roma
Rome, the Eternal City, was founded in 753 BC by Romulus and Remus, and has been a centre of power, architecture, and engineering innovation ever since. From the ancient Romans' impressive aqueducts and Colosseum to the Renaissance's ornate fountains and Baroque churches, Rome's architecture is a testament to its rich history. The city's contemporary cultural identity is a vibrant mix of traditional Italian cuisine, world-class museums, and a thriving arts scene. The Piazza Navona, with its beautiful Bernini fountains, is a must-visit spot to experience the city's timeless elegance. Rome's history and art are woven into every stone and building, waiting to be discovered.
Il momento migliore per visitare
Guida completa di Roma →I migliori mesi
The best months to visit Rome are May and June, when the weather is warm and sunny, with average highs of 25°C (77°F), and the crowds are manageable. In July and August, the peak tourist season brings hotter temperatures and larger crowds, but the city's outdoor spaces and fountains are particularly beautiful during this time.
Peak / Festival Surge
August is Rome's peak tourist month, driven by the Festa dell'Assunta and the peak summer tourist season. Expect higher prices and larger crowds, but also spectacular fireworks displays and outdoor concerts. Hotel prices tend to increase by 20-30% during this time.
Stagione di spalla
The shoulder season, from April to May and September to October, offers a great balance of pleasant weather, fewer crowds, and discounts on hotel prices. Prices can be 10-20% lower than in peak season, making it an ideal time to visit.
Meteo e imballaggio
Rome's climate is known for its sudden rain showers, even in the summer, so pack a lightweight waterproof jacket or poncho. Also, don't forget to bring comfortable shoes, as you'll likely do a lot of walking in Rome's cobblestone streets and historic sites.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Raffaello, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 3rd or 4th floor, as these floors have access to the lift and are likely to be quieter due to being higher up. Also, rooms on the Via Urbana side of the hotel may experience more street noise, so ask for a room on the opposite side, which faces the quieter Via Merulana.
Rooms to avoid
Floors 1 and 2, as they are closest to the service entrance and may experience more noise from staff and deliveries. Additionally, rooms on the Via Urbana side of these floors may be noisier due to the busy street.
Best views
Rooms on the Via Merulana side of the hotel (floors 3-6) may have a view of the quieter street, while rooms on the Via Urbana side may have a view of the busy street.
Quietest floors
Floors 3-6
🔊 Noise notes

Principali attrazioni a Roma
💡 Stand on the yellow disk on the floor for the best perspective on the painted dome. The ceiling frescoes include a subtle 3D trick.
💡 Go between 6am and 7am for quiet photos. Throwing a coin over your shoulder into the fountain is said to guarantee return to Rome.
💡 View it from the nearby square. Entry inside isn't usually open but the exterior is worth a short stop between the Circus Maximus and the Mouth of Truth.
💡 Rent a rowboat on the lake for €6 for 30 minutes. The Bioparco zoo inside costs entry but the gardens are free.
💡 Go early to beat the crowds and haggle politely. Bring small change and watch your pockets. The market stretches along Via Portuense and Piazza Ippolito Nievo.
