These properties are unique in all of Italy and cannot be compared to hotel options. Although we have attempted to categorize them into 2, 3 and 4 star equivalency, even the 4 star properties may not have all the facilities and services of a 4 star hotel. What it will have is original, authentic, historical significance that could not be built today – at any price.
As a result, we encourage you to look at our 2, 3 and 4 star properties on the site in various cities so you can see the quality and uniqueness of each one, and which category would suit you best. Not one is like any other and every one is special in its’ own way.
So why not request a group quote from us on this tour. Just ask for the category 2, 3 or 4 star for your overnight stays.
We can usually provide a quote in 3 business days of your request – depending on local holidays in Rome and in North America.
Please note that this group requires a minimum of 15 participants.
