I stay at a wonderful hotel in Rome called Hotel Locarno. They have a website. Centrally located, near Piazza del Popolo, this is a gorgeous small hotel in true Art Deco style. I think a double now costs about $140 per night US. Another nice hgotel (though not as nice) in the same price range and good location is the Hotel Portoghesi, which is near the Pantheon. Hope this helps. |

I can suggest a WONDERFUL hotel. I would highly suggest the Hotel Kennedy. We paid $138.00 for a triple for a very nice room with airconditioning. The owners and operators speak perfect english (a real treat, trust me here...) and are very helpful in seeing that your stay in Rome is very pleasant. They are located within a 5 minute walk from the main train station (and McDonald's) located in the heart of Rome. webpage -> https://itwg.com/itw12017.asp Do NOT stay at the Hotel California. They fraudulently charged my credit card for a night that I stayed elsewhere and produced a receipt as proof... I hope you have a pleasant trip and I know the Hotel Kennedy help you make it happen! |

I am planning a trip to northern Italy in the Fall of 2000 and would like to find out information about my Old Nonno's house which has been turned into an inn, yet I don't know the name. His name was Nicholas Polano and he moved to Copper Cliff Ontario and opened a general store...eventually called Moroso's Store. Any info about the Inn or my family's history would be welcomed. |

Might you be thinking of Trastevere? I am planning on staying there when I arrive April 13, 2000. This is more a suburb of Rome but a very nice area. |

|

We are a group of 15 Finnish "stainless steel fans" who are looking for possibilities to travel to Val D'Aosta. We thought to fly to and stay at Milan but then make a one or two day trip to Val D'Aosta. We are especially interested in finding and seeing there enterprises that produce things of stainless steel. Could I get any hints or help ? Please... Thanks in advance ! |
