Hostel des Artistes
Budget

This Hostel has a "family" room that will accommodate up to six people. The bathroom is down the hall; shared with other guests. It is located near Termini Station. The hostel is affiliated with the Hotel des Artistes (www.hoteldesartistes.com), which is a more upscale option. The hostel is a great budget option if just centrally located housing is all you're looking for.

The Lancelot ElevatorHairdryer
Moderate - Splurge

The Lancelot is a lovely boutique hotel. They have a family room able to accommodate five up just one flight of stairs -- they also have a very small elevator. It has three singles and one double all in the same room and a full bathroom with hairdryer. There is a nice sized balcony off the bedroom with table, chairs and potted plants. We spent most of our time on the balcony when we were in the hotel as it was so pleasant. The hotel has a well appointed waiting area and breakfast room. The staff members were extremely friendly and helpful. The quiet leafy neighborhood is within walking distance of the Coliseum, the Roman Forum and other ancient ruins. Because our children are older we were able to walk all the way in to the city, but when we traveled the greater distance to the Vatican we easily caught a city bus just a few blocks away.

Please note: the family room is also wheel chair accessible.


Caesar House Residenze Romane TelevisionTelephoneHairdryer
Moderate - Splurge

The Caesar House has two apartments; one that will sleep four and one that will sleep up to six. The Apartment Colosseo which sleeps six has two bedrooms and two bathrooms. It is located near the Colliseum. Babysitting services are available.


Hotel Hiberia TelevisionTelephone Hairdryer

Contact the hotel directly asking for the best rate and explaining your family's size and children's ages. Breakfast is included in their rates.

Florence (Tuscany area)

 

 

 


Castello di Montegufoni
Budget - Moderate - Splurge (depends largely on choice of apartment)

The Castello is located about 25 minutes from Florence. It sits on top of the small hill town of Montegufoni, an easy jumping off point for visiting other towns in Tuscany. The Castello has a long and varied history starting in the 1100’s. A synopsis of that history and photographs of the Castello and its rooms can be found on their website.

Our family stayed there for one week in the summer of 2004 and 2006. It is an extended stay establishment in that small apartments or villas are rented out in week long increments. It is not a hotel, but has many amenities like a swimming pool, front desk, small store (that makes the best lattes) and restaurant. The apartments in the castle all come complete with a kitchen and bathroom. There is also a laundry room on site for your use. There are many different bedroom configurations which will accommodate small to large families.

Although there is some bus service, it would be necessary to have a car in order to visit the surrounding countryside and hill towns.  We found the staff to be extremely friendly and tolerant of children. There is a pay phone in the courtyard.

  Hotel Silla TelevisionTelephoneHairdryer
Moderate

This three-star, moderately priced, hotel has a family room that can accommodate a family of five. It is located on the left bank facing the Arno in a quieter leafy area about five minutes walk from the Ponte Vecchio. Piazza Michaelangelo and San Miniato are within walking distance but up hill. As with most hotels contact them directly through email regarding accommodations for a family of five. Rates include breakfast.


Lungarno Apartment
Splurge

Next door to the elegant Lungarno Hotel is the affiliated Lungarno Apartments. The hotel does not have a room that can accommodate five people but the Apartments with double rooms does. A double room apartment consists of one room with twin beds and the other with one large bed, and an extra bed can be set up in the family room. There also is a fully equipped kitchen and two bathrooms. These are not inexpensive but would be comparable to having to rent two rooms separately in a more moderate hotel. The Lungarno Apartments are centrally located very near the Ponte Vecchio.


Hotel Minerva
Splurge

This centrally located, four star hotel has a suite with two bedrooms and two bathrooms that can sleep five people. The rates include breakfast. It is not inexpensive but would be comparable to paying for two rooms in a more moderate establishment. The hotel caters to its younger guests with sweets and a drawing kit upon arrival, maps of kid friendly destinations and by helping to locate reliable nannies. There is also an outdoor, roof top pool.


Hotel Azzi
Budget - Moderate

Hotel Azzi is located within a short walking distance from the train station and about five minutes by foot to the Duomo and other attractions. It is a two star moderately priced hotel that can accommodate a family of five. There is a library with travel books in many languages and a quiet terrace available to patrons.

Bologna

 

 


Statue in city of Bologna


The Sheraton Bologna   Television Telephone Coffee/Tea Supplies Elevator
Moderate

This business person's type hotel is conveniently located next to the airport. When we initially requested a room for our family of five they offered two rooms, but after we inquired whether we could all stay in one room they allowed it. Our room was a junior suite with two double beds and a cot. We understood a cot to be a "cot" in American terms that is a fold out camping type bed. It was in fact a portable baby crib. Our eleven year old daughter is rather petite and a good sport. She actually slept in that crib since it was only one night. The room could not have accommodated an extra bed of normal size. So, if you are a family of five, and one of your five family members is an infant or toddler, this hotel could work for you. We chose to be near the airport because our flight left at 6:00am and we were only staying one night. There is a complimentary shuttle bus that takes you downtown or to the airport. The hotel restaurant is pricey but downtown Bologna had numerous reasonably priced places to eat.


Venice

 


Palazzo Guardi Television TelephoneHairdryer
Moderate

Two buildings comprise the Palazzo Guardi; the main hotel and the annex which is only steps away. They are centrally located on an obscure street. The outside facade belies the pleasant decorating inside. The Palazzo Guardi has two four bedded rooms that can accommodate 4-5 and one five bedded room that can accommodate 5-6 people. A basic continental breakfast is included. The furnishings are ornate old-fashioned venetian style.


Hotel all Salute "da Cici"
Moderate

The Hotel Salute has suites that can sleep 5 and family rooms that can sleep 4. It is located in a quiet central area of Venice -- five minutes walk to Piazza San Marco. It is comprised of two 16th century palazzos. Rates include a very basic continental breakfast. The annex has been newly refurbished.


San Marco Hotels
Splurge
