Set on one of the seven famous hills of ancient Rome, the Hotel Mariano is a late 19th century hotel with original architectural features, located one kilometre from the Coliseum.

The 33 Individually decorated guestrooms feature neutral tones and rich, colourful fabrics. All include cable television, telephones, clock radios, safes, and hair dryers.

After a complimentary buffet breakfast, guests can ask the concierge for sightseeing assistance and can request bookings for numerous shows and events.

The hotel offers a 24-hour front desk, room service (limited hours) and can arrange limo and airport transportation (fee).

In the evening, guests can have a drink in the hotel bar or dine at the hotel restaurant, All'Acquario, which serves traditional Italian cooking in a unique setting; the floor of the dining room is a rare combination of stone and wood and the walls hold a collection of pictures dated from 1880 to 1930.

The hotel is within walking distance of numerous attractions. Guests can admire ancient art and sculptures in the National Roman Museum and browse the Forum Shopping Centre, both 700 metres away. Rome's most famous monument, the Coliseum, is within one kilometre of the hotel.

Rome Fiumicino Airport lies 35 kilometres away, at an approximate driving time of 30 minutes. There is an hourly express train service to Rome's Termini Station. From here the hotel is just 300 metres away. Taxis to the centre are readily available, but take a licensed metered taxi only.

An airport surcharge is payable. Rome's integrated transportation system includes buses and trams (ATAC), subway (metropolitana), suburban trains (FM) and coaches (COTRAL). The city centre is easily negotiated on foot.

The hotel will be carrying out a 'soft' refurbishment of guestrooms between the 19th January and the 3rd March. As work is mainly cosmetic, noise disturbance should be minimal. Please contact the hotel directly on +39 06 4466 147 for further information.
