Try the Santa Chiara. Find their website through www.venere.it/roma. It lists double rooms from 300,000 to 395,000 lire which should be around $175-225. We stayed there last year, like the hotel very much and loved the location. We were able to walk to the Colosseum, Forum, Vatican, etc. It's only a block away from the Pantheon and a few blocks from the Piazza Navona.

Betsy, <BR>I'll again recommend the Hotel delle Regioni, just off Via del Tritone at Via Zucchelli. We paid 270000 for a very quiet triple room w/ bath & AC last June. Great location. Phone 06 483675 or 06 4745858; fax 06 4883300. Have you searched the site for other posts re: Rome hotels? There are several. Buon viaggio, Pam

Just beware of Internazionale, and if you don't like the room ask for another. When we checked in two years ago, we were so appalled at the room, we dropped our luggage and spent the next four hours going door to door of every hotel we could find, looking for an alternative. When nothing was available, we went back to the Internazionale and told them how upset we were at our threadbare, dirty, rusty (yes, rusty)room, that they had told us was one of their finest. After much arguing, they moved us to another room, that was hard to believe was in the same hotel. It was at the ground floor, dark as pitch (facing a solid wall about three feet away from its only window) but at least was clean and resonably newly decorated. Last summer I noticed that the threadbare lobby carpet had been replaced and the peeling, dirty lobby walls had been repainted, so maybe the hotel is better than it was.
