Rome Precruise Second Try

Three years ago, we were put in the airport Hilton by Regent as we could not make our flight connections, so we were given a free post cruise night. For an airport hotel, it was surprisingly okay. The rooms were large and clean, and despite the fact that it was beside the airport, we did not hear much noise. Also, the Hilton ran a free shuttle into the center of Rome, so we managed to get an entire day of sightseeing in post-cruise. We chose to stay in the city to eat dinner, and that was probably a good choice, as, of course, there were very limited options in the hotel. Of course, if one wants the full Rome experience, it would make more sense to say stay in Central Rome, and you can certainly get a much better price than that which Regent is offering. I've also heard that the site cabs in Rome do a very good job for airport transfers.

We also enjoyed the Hilton and took the shuttle into town. The food in the hotel was pricey and not what we were looking for at the time. So, we walked to the airport (about a 10 minute in walk in a nice, safe area) and checked out a couple of terminals. One of the terminals (think it was terminal 2) had a fabulous place where they have fresh mozzarella balls floating in whatever they float in:-) We had some great food and a beer there for half the price of the restaurant.
