  4. Thank you ladies for your lovely comments. MDS we stayed at the Hilton Cavalieri which is in a residential district called Monti Mario on a hill out of the city. The hotel has a free shuttle bus, or a taxi is between 11 and 17 euros. I have been to Rome 4 times now and stayed here twice - the price is similar to a central hotel but the place is far more luxurious, and when you are in Rome you don't really get the view. Hope that helps but feel free to e-mail me if you want more details.
