The 2* Albergo Sole al Biscione Hotel is locally considered to be THE OLDEST HOTEL in the Eternal City of Rome. Located on the via del Biscione, the Albergo Sole is a thirty second walk from the bustling and bohemian Campo de' Fiori. With a fresh food market on weekdays and a flea market on Sundays, the Campo accommodates locals and tourists alike. There is an abundance of restaurants in the immediate area, including the La Carbonara, where, legend states, the spaghetti variety carbonara was first created! The Albergo Sole attracts guests from around the world, drawn by its affordable prices and its prime location in the heart of the Historic Centre. The hotel itself has been built into the ruins of the Pompey's Theater and some of the ruins are still visible in the walls of the hotel. Due to the historic nature of the building, rooms vary in size and the attached price plan is based on rooms with shared private facilities (reflected in the unbeatable price for such a central location!); many have views of the Campo and the adjoining roads. One of the hotels' selling points is the delightful garden courtyard off the second floor, from where a clear line of sight looks over the Roman skyline, dominated by the neighboring church of Sant'Andrea della Valle, and its dome, the second largest in the city, trailing only St. Peter's Basilica. Guests travelling to Rome by car will also appreciate secure garage facilities that the hotel provides - a rarity in the heart of Rome! The Albergo Sole al Biscione remains family-owned and operated.

As of Jan 2011 Rome is introducing a new city tax to be paid by the guest to the hotel directly prior to their departure, excluding hostel and charged up to 10 nights. € 3.00 per person/per night for 5* and 4* hotels and € 2.00 per person/per night for 3*, 2* and 1* hotels.

eh...maybe...
Review by: logan , moline, United States	Stayed: Aug 2010
i will say that the location is great but other than that there is nothing really that special about it. The staff was helpful at times but did not seem people friendly. I think I would've rather booked a hostel somewhere else. If I'm gonna pay a little more I want more quality and my room was very quality free. no AC and the TV is near impossible to figure out how to work. I just ended up watching TV with no sound. This hotel looked good on paper, but it is nowhere near the expectations I had.

Review by: pawelf , Ottawa, Canada	Stayed: Aug 2010
This is a great launching pad for all your Rome trips. The rooms are a bit small but they are clean and quiet. In spite of the fact that it is located right in the centre of Rome the hotel feels very quiet. You can hear bells from two churches nearby. In the evening you can hear music coming from the adjacent plaza. The central courtyard is great for a glass of wine or some snacks. There is no air conditioning but the ceiling fans do a good job in keeping you comfortable. The breakfast is not included but you can get good food right next door. In the morning drop by one of the local coffee shops for an expresso or cappuccino with a pastry and mingle with the locals.
