I Love Touring Rome, Italy - Piazza Navona District Hotels by:Levi Reiss
The Piazza Navona situated near the center of Rome was once a focal point for medieval jousts and Roman circuses
. It is beautiful and still evokes Rome of days gone by. The Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi (Fountain of the Four Rivers), representing the four corners of the globe is its centerpiece. Renaissance buildings including palaces and churches abound. You will love the district's narrow streets and lanes, some of which still are homes to local artisans. For a taste of multiculturalism make sure to visit San Luigi dei Francesi, the church of the expatriate French community. You say that you don't speak French; enjoy the art work. For your convenience we have listed neighborhood hotels in approximate order of cost, starting with the least expensive. We have personally verified all website addresses making sure that they include English-language pages.The Hotel Navona Cheap and Chic tries to live up to its name.
