Rome Bed and Breakfasts

Bed and breakfast facilities in Rome are designed to provide lodging accommodations to people who are either on a vacation in Rome or just passing by for a short term visit. ‘Bed and breakfasts,’ or ‘B&Bs,’ are generally inexpensive and you will surely find one to fit your budget. Be it just an elegant room, a luxurious apartment for rent, or suite-style room, a B&B will surely be a great alternative to traditional hotels.

The facility is typically operated within large family residences where guests avail of private guest rooms. Continental breakfast is served to the guests directly in the room of the guest each morning by a host or hostess, thus garnering the name. These hosts and hostesses are also available to answer any inquiries you may have about Rome.

Bed and breakfast facilities in Rome are inspected by a regulating body to ensure that the guests are given accommodations that meet high standards and are served with professional hospitality. These facilities usually require the guest stay a minimum number of days. Normally the minimum days required is between 2 and 3 days.

Most Bed and breakfast establishments are small and can hosts around 15 to 20 guests at the same time, so it is important to make reservations in advance. Seeking advice from a travel agent or researching over the Web about the establishment is advisable before making any arrangements. Search for testimonials regarding the facilities, hospitality and breakfast.

The idea of a bed and breakfast is not a new concept. Back in earlier days when hotels were non-existent, travelers would seek accommodations in private houses rather than in inns. The arrangements between the two parties are informal. There was also a ‘social status’ constraint – meaning, a commoner would not and cannot seek accommodations in the house of a nobleman.
