More and more Rome visitors prefer during their stay in Rome- whether long or briefly- a holiday apartment or another private lodging to a hotel. The principal reason for it lies absolutely in the better price-achievement relation of the flats, however, also in the wish to get to know more of the Roman life. For families above all holiday apartments offer an especially comfortable possibility as far as they are not bound to breakfast times and as they can cook something “at home” if the legs of the little ones are too tired to march off over again. Romamirabilia helps you with pleasure in the search of your ideal holiday apartment in Rome
The general audience takes place each Wednesday at 10.00 o’clock in St. Peter’s square. For more detailed information concerning participation in the audience visit the German Pilgrim Centre in Rome website.
