Your Italian Honeymoon Itinerary
Day 1-3 Rome, Italy
ACCOMMODATIONS:
Hotel Artemide is situated in the historic centre of Rome, in Via Nazionale, one of the most vibrant streets of the capital. Shops, boutiques, cafés, theatres, art galleries and bars: nothing is too far away for you! One of our guests wrote, “it is the finer touches that make a great hotel”.
Well, there is no better way to describe the Hotel Artemide in Rome.
Because here it is not the 4 stars that make the difference, nor the high-quality services. It is the staff that knows how to give meaning to the word hospitality. Our personnel are like that; they understand that when they welcome you at the reception desk, when you cross paths in the corridor or when they simply smile at you.
Of course we aren’t perfect, but we will do everything to render your holiday in Rome perfect.
