With Valentine’s Day upon us, Rome is widely regarded as one of the most romantic destinations in the world. As the resting place of Saint Valentine himself, Rome is called the “Eternal City” because people believed that no matter what happened to or in this beautiful city, Rome would always persevere. A great metaphor for love. Fall in love with Rome this February with Bettoja Hotels Collection’s new Valentine’s Day’s packages at their three hotels centrally located in the heart of Rome.

Family-owned and operated Bettoja Hotels Collection has been welcoming guests to Rome since 1875, when the family first purchased the Massimo D’Azeglio Restaurant near the Termini station and expanded it into what is now the Hotel Massimo D’Azeglio. In 1895, the neighboring Hotel Mediterraneo (pictured) and Hotel Atlantico became part of the collection. Today, five generations later, there are 500 rooms among the three hotels, and the Bettoja family have renewed their commitment to their guests and the hospitality industry by beginning a 20 million-Euro renovation across all hotels.

The renovation began in the summer of 2018 and will continue over the next several years.

Within walking distance from historic landmarks including the Colosseum, Opera House, Forum, Trevi Fountain (where the romantic movie Roman Holiday was filmed) and Spanish Steps, the three hotels are the ideal basecamp for embarking on the ultimate romantic adventure. The Stazione Termini, convenient for train excursions to Florence or Naples, is also just a few blocks away. The hotels are perfectly situated for exploring the Eternal City by metro, bus or on foot. Bettoja Hotels Collection welcomes lovers from around the globe to experience their new Valentine’s Day packages. Here’s one of their menus detailed below.
