Well, if you asked that question six years ago, pre-Euro, it would have been an inexpensive dream. The dollar was strong and the Lire was, the lire. The change to the Euro and the dramatic dip of dollar value has indeed upped the cost considerably. I was there in 2000 and it was superb. Today, you have to dig deeper into the pocket and work harder at finding accomodations that don't bite the budget. Places I stayed at in 2000, would cost me four times what they did then and they were budget places. Having said all that, don't let anything stop you from going to Italy. It is divine, no matter where you go or what you do! A piece of pizza from a hole in the wall stand will taste better then anything you've eaten in the U.S.

Rome is undoubtedly one the most wonderful cities in the world; annually countless tourists result from around the globe to appreciate the gifts and efforts of Roman artwork and structure and to be one you will have to start with Hotelbye . One of the very popular of Rome's several squares is Piazza Navona. This place preserves the shape of the Stadium of Domitian that when stood here. Piazza Navona was builted by Emperor Domitian in 86 AD and has three magnificent fountains.

Hi!
Italy is pretty expensive. Rome is actually the most expensive capital in Europe as a tourist. But if you go outside of Rome, to the north or to Tuscany, you'll see that the prices are much lower than in Rome.
I recommend you to go to Tuscany. It's so beautiful and peaceful.
