"For budget travelers, the Termini area offers the best transport links without the tourist markup you'll find near the Colosseum. Book direct for the best rates, but check Booking.com for last-minute deals. Don't forget to factor in Rome's tourist tax of €3-7 per person per night."
Marco Benedetti - Rome Travel Consultant
How do I choose a budget hotel in Rome?
Consider these factors when booking your stay:
- Location vs Price: The Termini area is 20-30% cheaper than Centro Storico but still walkable to attractions.
- Booking timing: Book 3+ months ahead for 20-30% savings. Last-minute deals are rare in Rome.
- Hidden costs: Tourist tax (€3-7/night per person) is not included in listed prices.
- Breakfast: Skip hotel breakfast (€8-15) and visit a local bar for €3-5 coffee and cornetto.
