DOMUS CARACALLA (guest house)

Home description

In the heart of Rome, just a few steps from the colosseum and the Roman forum, on the western summit of Mount Celio, is situated the new Bed and Breakfast Domus Caracalla which was inaugurated in December 2008. It is located in a peaceful street, isolated from the traffic, we welcome you in an independent structure, completely renovated.

This exquisite structure is made up of five rooms. It offers its guests the possibility to reach the best monuments of the city on foot: The Colosseum, Imperial forum, the historical basilica of Saint John, The Roman Semensario, The Traianei markets etc. You can experience the real Rome with its bistros and markets such as the famous market in Via Sannio just a few minutes away.

A short walking distance from Domus Caracalla is the beautiful villa Celimontana, an important archeological site, today a public park, which in summer hosts the most prominent jazz festival of the capital.

The Villa has a large space which also caters for children, and is the ideal place to relax after a long day visiting the city.
The main means of transport (bus and metro) are just a few minutes from our B&B where you get to every part of the city. The friendly staff will be at hand to provide you with any general information about the area.

The Lazio region

The name of the region also survives in the tribal designation of the ancient population of Latins, from whom the Romans originated. In Roman mythology, the shadowy king Latinus allegedly gave his name to the region. The name is most likely derived from the Latin word "latus", meaning "wide", expressing the idea of "flat land" (in contrast to the local Sabine high country) but the name may originate from an earlier, non Indo-European one.

Latium, originally inhabited by the Latins, extended its boundaries to the territories of the Sanniti, the Marsi and Campania thanks to the Roman conquests, taking in the lands of the Ernici, the Equi, the Aurunci and Volsci. This territory was called Latium Novi to differentiate it from Latium veteres, which indicated the original boundaries.

A landscape in Lazio: part of Tivoli, near Rome, seen from the upper terraces of the Villa d'Este. During the Augustus' administrative system, Latium - together with the present region of Campania- was the first Italian region.

After the Gothic war (535-554) and the Byzantine conquest, this region regained its freedom, because the "Roman Duchy" became the property of the Eastern Emperor. However the long wars against the Longobards impaired the region which was seized by the Roman Bishop who already had several properties in those territories.

The strengthening of the religious and ecclesiastical aristocracy led to continuous power struggles between lords and the Roman bishop until the middle of the XVI century. Innocent III tried to strengthen his own territorial power, wishing to assert his authority on the provincial administrations of Tuscia, Campagna and Marittima through the Church's representatives, in order to tear down the Colonna's power. Other popes tried to do the same.

Rome / Central Rome area

Rome is the capital city of Italy and Lazio, and is Italy's largest and most populous city, with 2,705,317 residents, an urban area of 3,457,690 as well as a metropolitan area of 4,013,057 inhabitants spread over a 5.352 km² area. It is located in the central-western portion of the Italian peninsula, on the Tiber river.

Rome's history as a city spans over two and a half thousand years, as one of the founding cities of Western Civilization. Even outside of the history of the Roman Empire, Rome has a significant place in the story of Christianity up to the present day, for it endures as the home of the papacy. The worldwide Roman Catholic Church is administered from the Vatican City, run by the Holy See as an independent enclave and the world's smallest sovereign state.

Today, Rome is a modern, cosmopolitan city, and the third most-visited tourist destination in the European Union. Due to its influence in politics, media, the arts and culture, Rome has been described as a global city.
