Geography

• Rome's Hotel Adriatic is ideally situated in the St. Peter's district of the city. The Vatican compound which houses the Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Square are just five minutes from the front doors of the hotel. Other attractions, such as Piazza Navona, Spanish Steps, Castel Sant'Angelo and the Trevi Fountain are all within a short walk or ride on Rome's underground train system. The closest underground stations are Lepanto and Ottaviano, both of which are on Line A. Line A is accessible from the main train station (Termini) where many tourists arrive by train from the airport.

Considerations

• Hotel Adriatic is a room-only hotel and does not serve any food or provide concierge services. However, many restaurants and cafes are nearby, such as Ristorante Porta Castello, which specializes in homemade pizzas and calzones.
  
  

Vatican City

• The Vatican was built atop marshes and wetlands and became holy ground after Roman emperor Nero martyred Christians at the site. Today, it is its own city-state that attracts tourists from all over the world. Tourists gather to hear the Pope's voice from St. Peter's every week, view the Sistine Chapel, research in the vast libraries and enjoy the gardens.
