It seems as though Rome is almost always sunny or I&#8217;d like to believe it is , or maybe that when I am in my favorite cityin the world it just feels that way. It also gives me that strong desire to plan my summer in Rome or you can plan to go there anytime of the year. Rome is always\u00a0 beautiful . The\u00a0Roman sun is like no other.\u00a0<br \/>\nAlso please note that Rome is much more than the Colisuem and the Vatican (As if that was not enough). Rome has many different neighborhoods and sections that all have their won charcteristics and delights to see. One of my favorite eclectic neighborhoods in Rome is Trastevere. Out of the center, but a mix of the eclectic, artsy, beautiful churches and -oh yes- you can find great pizza there also.<br \/>\nIt is a big city, so request a hotel near some of\u00a0 the sights you want to see.<br \/>\nChristmastime is also a wonderful time in Rome..not as commercial as the U.S. but especially beautiful and festive.<br \/>\nYou can book way in advance in fact as far\u00a0 ahead as 12 months in advance . So if you want to plan that vacation and don&#8217;t want to worry about whether or not you will get reseravtions try a service\u00a0 I have begun using.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.hotelclub.net\/hotel.reservations\/\">HotelClub <\/a>is a great \u00a0website that I have begun using, especially when I need to make reservations\u00a0way in advance. They will make reservations up to 12 months in advance for hotel and accomodations.\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hotelclub.net\/hotel.reservations\/\">HotelClub<\/a>\u00a0also has an almost\u00a0infinite amount of hotel choices in\u00a0over 5,000 cities all over the world. So for me,\u00a0it has\u00a0become almost like a one stop shop for about anywhere in the world my appearances and work takes me.\u00a0<br \/>\nMake your reservations\u00a0way in advance\u00a0 to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hotelclub.net\/hotel.reservations\/Madrid.htm\">Rome<\/a>\u00a0 or even last minute reservations to Rome. Either way you will have a large choice of hotels and if you would like to stop somewhere else like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hotelclub.net\/hotel.reservations\/Paris.htm\">Paris <\/a>or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hotelclub.net\/hotel.reservations\/Oslo.htm\">Barcelona<\/a>\u00a0while there-\u00a0you can make reservations for these at Hotel Club.
