The Via Cavour thoroughfare in downtown Rome, Italy is within walking distance of historical buildings and structures like the Basilica di San Pietro and the Colosseum. This street also features boutique and luxury hotels near the area's shopping and dining establishments. Hotel guests staying at a hotel on Via Cavour are also a short walk from Traiano Park, a recreation area with walking paths and the Domus Aurea, a first-century Roman villa.

Hotel Borromeo

The luxurious Hotel Borromeo is in the central area of Via Cavour, less than five minutes from the first-century Colosseum arena ruins. This hotel's lobby area and guest rooms have a mix of classical Roman fine art and contemporary décor and furniture pieces. The hotel provides a rooftop terrace area that offers views of the surrounding buildings and historical structures, while the hotel's on-site restaurant, American Bar, serves lunch and dinner. Breakfast is available on the rooftop terrace. The hotel's suites have living room areas with plush sofas and silk curtains. Other attractions near the hotel include the Santa Maria Maggiore Basilica, fine art galleries and the Exhibition Palace. Off-site dining is within walking distance of the hotel on Via Cavour and Via Panisperna, including the Ristorante Tema, a fine-dining establishment with an "old world Italy" flair.

The Hotel Marcantonio hotel, located in the northern stretch of Via Cavour, is a reasonably-priced hotel, and is housed in an 18th century building. The hotel has five floors, and the lobby area and guest rooms are sparsely decorated. The front desk provides concierge services to help arrange tours of the nearby historical attractions, such as the Aurelian Walls and the Trevi Fountain. Guest rooms have floor to ceiling windows, which allows you to see the bustling city streets surrounding the hotel. The hotel also provides breakfast for its guests every morning. The hotel is easily accessible for out-of-towners since it is only a five-minute walk from the Rome Termini train station on the Piazza dei Cinquecento thoroughfare. Monte Caruso, a popular local eatery, is only a block away from the hotel, and provides a small, tranquil dining area, which serves as a contrast to the busy tourist activity in the area.

The Hotel Atlantico is an upscale accommodation on northern Via Cavour, within the Rome Termini train station and the exhibits at the National Etruscan Museum. The lobby area of this hotel features tiled floor, crème colored walls and a large mosaic-like mirror. Ristorante 21, located in the adjacent Hotel Mediterraneo, can be accessed by Hotel Atlantico's guests via a connecting hallway. The restaurant serves lunch and dinner. A breakfast room and lounge are available in the Hotel Mediterraneo as well. Hotel Atlantico's 69 guest rooms have Art Deco furniture pieces and hardwood floors. The hotel is only a five-minute walk from the Piazza Repubblica, which is usually the first attraction tourists see when they leave the train station. This area of Rome is also a popular spot for international movie premieres, so you may catch a glimpse of famous Hollywood celebrities on your European excursion.
