Go-today Rome hotels - quality.

Hi all

checking into different options for Rome. Go-today currently has a sale going, 6 nights, air and hotel costs, most expensive hotel is around 1100 bucks give or take leaving from Dulles. this sounds like a good deal.

has anyone had good experiences with their hotel choices?

I'll go back and grab some names off the list to post up as well. thank you!

Albergo Del Senato Hotel $809

Rose Garden Palace V Rome $929

Grand Hotel Plaza W Rome $1009

these were the top hotel choices, plus a surcharge from DC.

thoughts anyone?

thank you!

I looked at go-today's website.
Rose Garden Palace location is a bit inconvenient (via Boncompagni off Via Veneto)

Grand Hotel Plaza is in a good location, on via Del Corso

When are you thinking of going?

yk - dunno yet for sure! hoping for the fall, would like early fall BUT don't want to use a lot of vacation time, so if we go over Thanksgiving it maximizes time away without actually taking vacation days.

is dependent on friend's schedule, in part - unless I shanghai another friend to go with me also/instead. I've traveled alone quite a bit, but I'd like to take this in with a friend this time.

I am probably looking at the same vacation for next year... how does it work?

Convenient flight is very important for me, and seems they want my credit card number before giving out the flight details? I want to know how many connections, which airports, how much time between the planes, times of initial departure and final landing...

Am I missing all this information on the website by pressing wrong buttons?

I don't think you're missing it. I could be wrong, but I think what you give up for the Go Today prices is control over what flight you get. If this decision is really important to you, you may not be happy with Go Today. JMPO
