We want to travel economically, but no dorm rooms, we'll want our own room.

Hostels in Italy are in general actually alot cheaper in the winter than the summer, In general, you will be able to find hostel private room, or budget hotel for between 15 and 25 dollars per night, per person (30-50 bucks per night total) in the larger or more popular cities - (Rome, Venice, Florence) For other places, expect to still pay at least 12 dollars or so per person. There are alot of great places to stay, I reccomend that you book your X-mas portion of your trip around now, since the holiday can fill up the smaller hostels and hotels. For example the main hostel in Venice proper is full already for most of December!
Since I do not know what city you are going to, I can not give specific advice but in general you can't go wrong with Twizi.com (they list places to stay all over the world for less than 25 dollars. They have a map of Rome and Venice hostels. There is also a city page on Florence. They have descritions of both hostels and budget hotels.
Another thing you should know is that in Italy...
Rome is called "Roma" Venice is called Venezia" and Florence is called "Firenza" (that messes up alot of people)
Hostels are really fun places to be and as a couple you have the great option of booking a private or a hotel and still have it be very economical. Enjoy your trip! Happy Travels

Private rooms usually charge by the room, not per person. Most of the ones I've seen have been in the EUR 50-60 range, especially at the bigger name hostels. I stayed in hostels in Torino and Ischia, and dorm beds were about EUR 18 per night, so you'd be looking at a fair bit more for privacy.

It relies upon with the help of what style of accomodation are you looking. in case you like a 5 stars inn interior the city middle... properly... it rather is going to cost lots. I stay in Rome, so my examples would be for Rome: the "inn De Russie", between the Spanish Steps and Piazza del Popolo has rooms for 6.000 euros in line with nighttime. of direction you additionally can take a inn no longer so important, or a mattress & breakfast, spending some thing like 50/60 euros for a inn or 30/40 euros for a b&b. different fees in Italy are not so severe as in different countries: transports are low-priced (in Rome: sixteen euros to commute for a week on subway, buses and trams), foodstuff is low-priced (lots decrease than in London or Paris), pubs and golf equipment are no longer so high priced (4/5/6 euros for a pint of beer). it rather is impossible to assert how lots you will spend in a week (it relies upon with the help of what you prefer to do) yet besides it rather is achieveable to do no longer spend milions...

the way to go is a convent. We stayed in Casa IL Rosario in Rome. It was great, centrally located, near great restaurants and it was cheap and safe! we had our own room and a private bath for 75/euros per night
