Great Escapes: Travel company owner Simone Amorico dishes on his favorite time of year in the city, favorite hotels, and tourist-free areas to wander
As a lifelong Roman and co-owner of Access Italy, a company that plans luxury experiences in Rome, Simone Amorico wants travelers to discover the city he loves and is proud to call home.
Unlike Paris or London, Rome doesn’t tend to be a repeat destination, but Amorico says that it should be because each trip will leave visitors with something new and unexpected. He encourages them to get the most out of their getaway by avoiding the rush of summer when the crowds and heat take over the city and detract from its magic. Instead, come in the late fall, winter, or early spring.
Hotel Hassler. This longtime Rome hotel is family-owned, and guests get the feeling that they’re part of a large Italian family because the service is so genuine and warm, and the owners are around. The location overlooking the Spanish Steps is prime, and the rooftop restaurant is romantic and has spectacular city panoramas.Pierluigi. This seafood temple is an absolute must for visitors.
Antico Caffè Greco. It doesn’t get any more authentic than this café that’s been open since the 18th century and where Romans go for their coffee fix. I order a double espresso in the afternoon and a cappuccino in the morning.Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna. Most visitors don’t know about this beautiful modern museum with constantly changing great exhibitions. I suggest a nice walk at the Villa Borghese garden before or after the visit and lunch at the museum’s outdoor café.
