Corso Vittorio Emanuele II)
One of the few budget options in the historic centre, this is said to be
the oldest hotel in Rome, dating back to 1462. There's nothing special about the function-
al rooms but there's a pleasant 2nd-floor roof terrace, and the location near Campo de'
Fiori is excellent. No credit cards and no breakfast.

HOTEL DUE TORRI€€
Monte Brianzo)
The Hotel Due Torri has always offered discretion - first as a residence for
cardinals, then as a brothel, and now as a refined hotel. The look is classic, with period
furniture, gilt-framed mirrors and parquet floors, and while rooms aren't huge they're
bright and comfortable.
