Prices include flights, hotels, transfers and a checked bag. Many options are multi-city with intercity transportation (and sometimes sightseeing). Need help choosing? Talk to an agent who’s been to Italy.
From the sun-drenched Amalfi Coast to the timeless ruins of Rome, from the gondola-laced canals of Venice to the rolling vineyards of Tuscany, Italy is not merely a place you visit, it’s a place you fall in love with, again and again. Whether you're a first-time visitor dreaming of the Colosseum, a couple seeking a romantic Tuscan retreat, or a foodie eager to taste an authentic Margherita pizza in Naples, we have an Italy package that suits you.
Our Italy packages are designed for independent travelers who want the value and convenience of a curated package but prefer to explore at their own pace. These packages typically include flights, hotels, and transfers. Many are multi-city itineraries, so they also include intercity transportation. Some even include pre-arranged sightseeing components to help you hit the ground running.
Departure airports
Most of our Italy packages are built around departures from Toronto and Montreal, where nonstop or near-nonstop flights are readily available. Other Canadian gateways may be available with connecting flights. If Toronto or Montreal departures don't work for you, please give us a call. Our agents can price it even if it's not shown on our website.
Popular itineraries
With so much to discover in Italy, we recommend two and three-centre trips. Very few people visit Italy and wish they'd stayed in just one city.
Rome & Amalfi Coast / Sorrento: The classic pairing of city and coast. Rome for history and energy, Sorrento or the Amalfi Coast for scenery, seafood, and slowing right down.
Rome & Florence: Two cities that feel completely different despite being only about 90 minutes apart by train. Great for art lovers and food lovers in equal measure.
Rome, Florence & Venice: The grand trifecta. A lot to cover, but very doable with Italy's excellent rail connections. This is the trip that turns people into Italy regulars.
Venice & Northern Italy: A wonderful option if you want to experience fewer crowds than the Rome circuit combined with the beauty of Lake Como, Verona, the Dolomites, Milan.
Sicily: Increasingly popular and for good reason. It's a different Italy entirely: Greek ruins, Arab-Norman architecture, extraordinary food, and fewer tourists than the mainland. Best combined with a fly-and-drive or a small group tour.
Tuscany: A natural choice for those who want a slower pace, a rural base, with day trips to Florence and Siena, rather than a city-hopping itinerary.
Where to stay
Italy has a wide range of accommodation styles, and choosing the right base will shape your entire experience.
Rome: Central neighbourhoods like the Historic Centre (Campo de' Fiori, Navona) and Trastevere are great for walking everywhere. The Vatican/Prati area is excellent if St. Peter's and the museums are a priority. Options around Termini tend to offer better value.
Florence: Staying within the historic centre means nearly everything is walkable. It's a compact city and being central matters more here than almost anywhere else in Italy.
Venice: If you are staying on the island, the Cannaregio and Dorsoduro neighbourhoods offer a slightly more local feel and tend to be better value than San Marco, which is stunning but sits right in the thick of the tourist crowds. The mainland town of Mestre is just a 10-minute train ride across the lagoon, and has a solid selection of comfortable, well-priced hotels around the main Mestre train station area. You get easy access to Venice without paying island prices, and for travelers who are combining Venice with other Italian cities, it can be a more convenient base to arrive and depart from.
Sorrento: A fantastic base for the Amalfi Coast, Pompeii, and even a day trip to Capri. It's easier to navigate than staying on the Amalfi Coast itself.
The Amalfi Coast: While the coast is stunning, its more about sightseeing than swimming. If beach time is high on your list, Sicily's coast and the areas around Sorrento are better suited.
Italian weather
Italy is a long, narrow country, so weather varies significantly by region and season. A few honest things worth knowing before you book:
Rome and Central Italy sit around 7-10°C in January but temperatures can reach 30°C or more in July and August. Summer in Rome is hot, busy, and in peak August, notably emptier of locals (who tend to escape the city) but packed with tourists.
Northern Italy (Venice, Florence, Milan) can be cold and damp in winter. Venice gets acqua alta (seasonal flooding) most commonly from October through January, which is worth knowing before you go.
The Amalfi Coast and Southern Italy are best from May through October. Shoulder season, meaning May/early June and September/October, is the sweet spot: warm, less crowded, and often better value.
Sicily has a longer warm season than the mainland and is a solid choice for those wanting Mediterranean warmth and sunshine outside of peak summer.
If warm-water swimming is the main goal, late July through September in Sicily or along the southern coast is your best bet. A spring trip to Rome and Tuscany, on the other hand, is hard to beat for comfortable temperatures and stunning scenery without the summer crowds.
Not sure which itinerary is right for you?
That's exactly what we're here for. Our agents have been to Italy, many of them multiple times and to different regions. Whether you're planning a romantic first trip, a family adventure, a food-and-wine-focused escape, or a deep dive into ancient history, we'll help you find the package that fits what you're after. Give us a call at 1-800-665-4981 and let's figure it out together.

Verified PurchaserHotel Pietra Di Luna: An amazing resort!
This hotel is definitely a five star in my humble opinion, from the expertise staff at the front desk, to the top notch staff in the dining room, so professional, friendly, and welcoming!
Top grades for amenities, cleanliness, and location, location, location!
A very special thanks to Girardo for his keen attention to detail with regards to hospitality and his attentive staff: Antonino, Anna, Luigi, Roberto, and Vincenzo.
Would love to return one day soon!
Wendy prepared an amazing trip of a lifetime! Hotels, flights, trains and buses. Free breakfast and an amazing excursion to Murano, Burano and Tercello. Rome, Florence and Venice. Highly recommended! Hotels in Rome and Florence were within walking distance of restaurants and attractions. Venice required a quick and easy tram ride to the canals. Loved every minute.

Verified PurchaserHotel Pietra Di Luna: Excellent resort!
Centrally located, minutes to the ocean, bus and ferry. Shopping, restaurants all around. Large swimming pool and dedicated loungers at the ocean.
The loungers and umbrellas are all in excellent condition.Wonderful staff, attentive and friendly. Special mention to Alishia in housekeeping. She was so friendly and always smiling. Food was amazing and the staff Gerardo, Luigi, Luigi, Antonio and everyone always ensuring we were happy with all meals and service. (I apologize if I spelled anyone's name incorrectly) We had water leaking in the bathroom and it was taken care of immediately. I highly recommend this place. The only thing I would mention to improve is the rooms could use some english channels on the T.V. The rooms and balcony were very charming.

Also note (if advertised): they have a small designated space that appeared to be their gym, which was 'out of order'. It was located in an outdoor courtyard, underneath an enclosed tent.

Verified PurchaserHotel Pietra Di Luna: Vacation July 2025
Very well located, very clean with great service hotel. Room was very clean, cleaned everyday.
Sheets are very clean and get changed everyday. I wish pillow and mattress were more comfortable. Food, breakfast and dinner were also good. I Loved white tablecloths, cleanliness in the dining room, waiters in their perfect uniforms and service in the dining room was excellent.
I was missing fresh fruit for breakfast and free non alcoholic drinks for dinner. Air conditioner is older and rooms get really hot in the hot weather.
I rated room as 3* because of barely working Air Conditioner and fridge. Not comfortable bed.

Verified PurchaserHotel Pietra Di Luna: Not what we expected
The ground of this hotel were perfect however be aware that have to pay for basic water and coffee with meals. No beverages at all are included. Also we were not told that the water in the fridge was not included and we paid $4€ per can which was extremely over priced. When we asked about the extra charges they basically told us we should have read the “fine print”. The maître de was very rude to people who didn’t speak the language and he also misrepresented the prices of bottle of wine. He told us it was $18€ only to be charged $21€ at checkout. The worst part was that we had a ring disappear from our room and again when we went to the manager of the hotel they said they would conduct an investigation immediately. That consisted of them asking the cleaning lady who said she didn’t see it and with that the investigation was over. We checked out 4 days early simply because we didn’t feel comfortable any more

Verified PurchaserH10 Roma Citta: Improvements Needed
The food is good. The pizza has wrong sauce for Canadian culture. It seems too acidic. The lasagna is great. Once the eggs were undercooked. The bathroom needs two doors or a shower curtain. Just one glass is insufficient. Very beautifully decorated room and bathroom. The sink needs changing. It is old and someone hid something in the hole around the top of the sink and vanity. Maybe someone should let us know the minibar is not free. The air conditioning is great and the water availability is great. The toilet is great and flushing is great too. The bus and sightseeing of the city was great. The city is a very beautiful place. I love all the buildings, structures, monuments, statues, etc. It was very nice to see such a beautiful place. I will probably visit again. This was a very busy city and there were lots of people everywhere. There is great diversity of people there as well. The weather can get very hot, and the need for water can be urgent. There were city dwellers selling water at the bus stops along the path in the city. This is definitely a place to miss and a place to visit again. I hope to visit again. Thank you.

Verified PurchaserHotel Pietra Di Luna: Excellent waterfront location, professional + friendly staff
Every staff member from the front desk to the cleaning staff to the dining room crew take great pride in their jobs and in maintaining a super clean, well run property. Those responsible for hiring and training of staff have done an excellent job and we have nothing but praise for the staff themselves who were friendly, accommodating and delightful throughout our stay, without exception. Bravo!
Pietra di Luna itself is an interesting hotel that seems trapped in time, meant in a positive way in this case. Although some travellers may feel the 60's/70's decor is due for an overhaul, everything seems to be in remarkably great shape considering its age. Almost to the point that it feels like you're living in that timeframe. As seen from our photos, the floor tiles have a funky, kitschy feel as do some of the other room stylings which may not appeal to all travellers but we got a kick out of it. Our room had a cute balcony with partial sea view which we enjoyed virtually every day. Some guest rooms have been recently renovated - not sure of the timeline for the rest but as mentioned, although perhaps a bit dated, the older rooms are meticulously well maintained and were not a detraction for us.
Food was great throughout our stay and dining staff were outstanding. Special mention to Girardo (Maitre D) whose at first gruff exterior melts away to reveal a sweetheart of a gentlemen, determined to orchestrate the dining experience like an experienced maestro. Truly entertaining to watch him in action.
We enjoyed the swimming pool once during our stay although it was unheated and a little early in the season (early May) to really warm up in the sun. The pool would be a great selling point in the warmer months. And as warmer weather arrives, visitors will no doubt enjoy the beach right across the street from the hotel featuring private chairs and umbrellas for hotel guests. Sweet! Beach spot opens in June FYI. Overall we were very happy with our stay and would highly recommend this hotel and Maiori in general as a home base during your visit to the Amalfi Coast.

Verified PurchaserBest Western Hotel Canada: So much history!
The hotel was beautiful inside. It was like stepping back in time. Staff was super friendly and helpful. The entire hotel was super clean and sanitizer was placed all over the hotel. The breakfast that was included in our stay was delicious with a lot of options. Not your typical cereal and bagel buffet. We brought our infant and they accommodated her by giving us a crib and high chair. (Everywhere else-like restaurants, in Italy, doesn’t have these options we found out)
The hotel is very close to everything. About 20-30 minutes walk to the main tourist attractions.
This resort is small but well run. There is no need to dash to the beach at 6:00 in the morning so you can get "a spot", you always have a beach chair, sun shade, and a table at the restaurant because each spot is assigned by your room #. (great idea!) The pool is very clean and refreshing after a hot day. The front desk personnel are there to help you, call a taxi, help with setting up excursions, room changes, (so families can be near each other) etc…Some of the rooms are very small but very clean. You may want to bring your own beach towels as none are provided, although you are allowed to use the towels from your bathroom. This resort is located on the beach, near shopping, the train station, banks etc. We felt safe and comfortable walking or taking a taxi to the many interesting and fun things to see and do in Agropoli. We enjoyed this resort and the staff very much and hope to visit again. This was or first visit to Italy and we were not disappointed. This hotel is a great place to start enjoying all that Italy and it’s people have to offer visitors, good food, good wine, a friendly welcome and a beautiful landscape. My only advice to english speaking guests would be to load some english content entertainment on your tablet as I didn't find any on the TV channels in the rooms. That being said, I loved the place!

The Resort is a smaller size than Caribbean resorts we have been to. That being said we loved the intimacy between the staff, the adjacent town, the other travellers.

What you would expect for what you’ve paid. Not great, not bad. Frankly air conditioning could be stronger it was a bit warm. The food was ok though. Service was friendly and answered my questions if i had any.
Steps from the beautiful Trevi Fountain but on a quiet side lane.
We were not in the main hotel but an 3 room street entrance steps away from the main hotel.
Breakfast was good and breakfast staff were very good. Plenty of coffee and food to get your day started. Elbow room at breakfast is at a premium.
Room was modern but there was a distinct musty smell and the carpets were dirty.
Lobby staff were always helpful and kept an even keel even though always busy.

Verified PurchaserResidence Hotel Panoramic: Maiori - Residence Panoramic
We just arrived back on Sunday/yesterday from the Amalfie Coast to bring back very good
memories with my two daughters.
I do recommend this family owned hotel if you like a basic small apartment like atmosphere. It's very quiet and well maintained in exception to a few items I didnt enjoy spending money on olive oil for cooking dish cloth and dish soap. We left behind 90% of the oil and dish soap in hopes that the owners share amongst their guests. It's a waste of money to buy these items for a weeks stay. I felt this would have won me over if they supplied this even for a couple extra dollars charge.
I did get bitten by some bizarre bug that left bad itchy bites on my lower legs. We checked the beds and saw no signs of bed bugs but I'm not taking any chances and cleaning my cloths at the laundrymat. No history found on bed bugs at this place but you never know always a first.
Regardless of the outcome Maiori has to be the best place on the Amalfie coast to stay to avoid chaois and have a quiet place to go home when visiting the other touristy places on the coast. The food is a real hit and miss. We had the worst food on capri Island of all places. On the other hand you have to go to the Chiosco bar on the sea front to get the best food in Maiori . Momma Mia of the owner makes everything perfecto from scratch. So fortunate to stumble on this just amazing. Note the siti bus tickets are purchased at the beginning of main town street to the right at a kiosk. We got a total run around where to buy these which was extremely annoying. You cant buy tickets on the bus!! The view from our room to the sea and coast was absolutely magical. How I miss my beautiful view.

Verified PurchaserHotel Pietra Di Luna: Above expectations
We stayed at the Hotel Petra Di Luna for two weeks. It is a delightful hotel mixed between apartments in Maiori. It is clean, our room was spacious and we could see the water from our balcony. The location is wonderful for strolling around Maiori or using buses and/or ferries to go to all the wonderful towns around the Amalfi Coast. Have to say that Ravello was my favourite. The staff go out of their way to make you feel comfortable . Shout outs to all the waiters and staff at the restaurant for their service with a special shout out to Luigi who went out of his way for us and all the other guests. They even pack you a breakfast if your flight is in the morning. It was funny guests getting on the transfer back with their bagged breakfast and seeing a Do Not Eat On The Bus sign. I would recommend the hotel. We were there in the early start of the season but they also have a private beach beside the swimming pool where you can have chairs and spend time at the beach. The hotel is small enough to make it feel like home but big enough to offer all that one would need.

Central to sights to see in Rome. Elderly gentleman working the front desk on afternoons very helpful. The 2 ladies in the morning, couldn't seem to work independently, they would only look after one client at a time.Breakfast was good and included.
We stayed at the hotel in early July for 8 nights. It was parts of the all inclusive package. We landed in Rome and had an included car rental. The 4 hour drive flew by as the scenery is breath taking. The hotel was perfect for us a great jumping point to take off and explore other areas as well. 2 hours from sorrento or 4 if you take the crazy coast including the amalfi coast drive to get there ..pretty worth it. The parking at the hotel was great. The food was excellent. You get a print out with your lunch and dinner options for the following day with 2 options for each course. Lunch and dinner come with a bottle of wine. The beach has a reserved chair for each room so no need to rush. The staff was very friendly. The room was always very clean and the AC worked well. The closest full grocery store is about 20min walking but thebwalknis along the coast. We highly recommend this hotel.

Verified PurchaserGrand Hotel La Favorita: Room and service are not worth the price but the hotel decor is amazing and pool is great
The good:
The hotel is located in a great place, the rooftop pool is amazing, the views from the roof are amazing, the room cleaning staff were amazing.
The bad:
We were on our honeymoon and were 'upgraded' to a room with a shared backyard (with 3 other rooms), but had absolutely no view of anything as we were below street level.
The hotel is dated and the walls are thin
The room I was given was right underneath the breakfast room and as a result I was awoken to extremely loud and obnoxious noises of workers moving tables upstairs, setting up for breakfast service. This noise lasted at least 30 minutes, every morning. One morning it was as early as 6:30AM as a tour group was checking out early and wanted breakfast early. After the setup ended, you could hear hotel guests walking around the breakfast room until 11AM.
The rooftop bar is open to the public so random strangers can go up for drinks while you are swimming in the pool.
The hotel forgot to tell us that we had to pay cash for our hotel transfer until we were checking in. A transfer from Naples cost 240 euros and this was required to be paid in cash but we wanted to pay with credit card. This caused a lot of issues as we had limited euros since we were traveling from North America and really threw our budget into flux.
We were on our honeymoon and paid for this hotel expecting the best, but the product and service we received overall was less than mediocre.
This tour stated that it was a 'busy' tour. Its unfortunate that some of our fellow tourists did not read this and had difficulty keeping up. Not a Tripcentral issue but more of an Air Transat issue. Better clarification could help, but might be ignored anyway.
Our first hotel was nice, but would have preferred to be more in the city center.
The hotels were nice except for the last day. We stayed at the Sheraton Golf on our last night in Rome. Awful, did not expect us, no Air Conditioning, not enough towels. Had to be loud and irate in order to get the Sheraton to move us to another property. To my knowledge the AC never got fixed.
I liked the tour, but next time would pick one with more time to ourselves.

This hotel was perfectly located close to many key amenities - great restaurants, the train terminal, many historical sites and so so much more. The staff was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. The rooms were clean and complete with a play station. There was some 120 chargers available right in the room. I would be jaded to not share some opportunities for improvements - the restaurant in the hotel was not operating during our stay, the orange walls got to be a bit much for us because it made the room seem smaller. A TV guide would have helped us to find the few English channels, the bathroom tiles and features (stool) could use an update and the hangers were slippery. Honestly though, that’s me being unnecessarily picky. It was awesome. Thanks so much for an amazing stay.

Gambrinas Hotel in Rome was nice. Majestic Hotel in Sorentto made us sit with other Tour members that did not speak English, even though they had extra tables. Also made us wait 1 1/2 hours to get our dinner one night, until the other members of our table showed up!! Not happy as it was the birthday of one of our party. Also the staff was not very friendly. No Transat Tour representative to contact. Shuttle services were always late and did not speak very good English. One shuttle driver took us to 3 different hotels before he got the right one. Tour tried to separate the hotel of our party of 4. We had to contact relatives at home to straighten it out. On one occasion we had to stand on the small shuttle bus, with the aisle full of luggage, to go to the larger bus. The Tours were good but we would have liked to have more time to ourselves afterward. Some we had none at all. One Tour left us in Town with no transportation back to the hotel. It was a 40 minute walk. Weather was excellent. Excellsior Hotel in Amalfi was beautiful with breathtaking views. Food was good and staff was excellent. 'When we were returned to our hotel in Rome, we were told no rooms and they sent us walking for four blocks at midnight pulling our luggage to the hotel they were now sending us to. Baileys hotel was not up to par with the previous hotels we stayed at. Again the tours we visited were good, we also did a few more on our own that were also good and we could take our time. Maybe if we had a choice of picking our hotels it would have been better. Our hotels were picked through the Italy Allegria Tour - Transat. Tours were actually through Alpitour when we arrived!

Verified PurchaserGrand Hotel Excelsior Amalfi: Beautiful view.
This was our first time visiting Hotel Excelsior. What can I say they went above and beyond. High on a mountain. Beautiful view. Great food. We travelled with our whole family. We had our 2 year old Grandaughter, and they treated her like family. Room service for her meals so she could go to bed earlier. The shuttle going down to the beach and also going into town is so accommodating. We would go back again absolutely.

Verified PurchaserRome Times Hotel: A modern feel in a classic city
My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon for two nights. We had an issue the first night where the hot water wasn't working so after a long day exploring out in the city I was forced to take a cold shower. On top of that the bar fridge in the room wasn't working so our glass of chilled wine was put on hold. I brought these two issues to the manager - Pietro - who understood how this would affect the quality of our honeymoon experience on our first night and went over and above to ensure we were happy.
The morning breakfast was tasty and plentiful. Most of the staff were very friendly, however, there were one or two that were far from. Aside from that it is at a central location for many of the sites - 15 mins walk from the Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, Colosseum, Roman Forum, Spanish Steps - and about 25 minutes walk from the Vatican.
Overall a great experience.

The hotel was very nice, the staff excellent. Location was perfect, very close to the beach and a 40 minute walk or a 10 minute drive from the train station.

Verified PurchaserH10 Roma Citta: Great room and hotel!
My wife and I spent our honeymoon there and it was great! We had a large modern very beautiful room, very clean, had a large bed, a large window, and nice washroom. The pool and hot tub facilities were amazing on hot days. Their breakfasts were the best we had while in Italy and recommended. The only small downside was the location, which is a little away from the heart of Rome, but they do run a 10 min shuttle ride into the city. The staff was friendly and kind. I would highly recommend this hotel to family and friends. Two things to watch for though is 1.local phone calls from the room are expensive and 2. The City's touristic tax at the end of the stay was 6 Euros per person per day, which meant for us 108 Euros for our 9 nights.

The food is typically Italian and presented in 3 courses (pasta dish, meat and desert), the sea is beautiful and the water is warm. Beautiful sunsets.
Great for family with kids who want to relax.
Most of the clients were Italians which is a good indicator for tourists that this is a good place to go.
The service is excellent. The personnel is very respectful.
I would recommend it to any one who wants to immerse in the Italian culture.

Verified PurchaserEden Hotel: Hotel Eden Excellent Sorrento Location
Just returned from Sorrento Italy and stayed at the Hotel Eden. Very good value, basic hotel room but very clean. Food at restaurant on site (Villa Rubinnaci) was excellent and very reasonably priced and hotel was only minutes walking distance to all the shops/restaurants in the town square, waterfront and train/bus station. Hotel grounds are very private and hotel staff (Michael) was very helpful. Pool and bar on site and never too busy with beautiful flowers, lemon and orange trees in the gardens. We used the pool often as the beach area in Sorrento is not great and most of the beach is private and costs a minimum of 10-13 euros per person per day to rent a chair and use the beach. Hotel is very central and good value. I would recommend upgrading to a waterview/balcony room as the economy room faced the back of the hotel with no view. Take your own face clothes and travel alarm clock as they were not available at the hotel but there was a small fridge and safe in the room. A small grocery store right across the road as well to purchase snacks, excellent local wines, etc. Booked through Trip Central and the agent (Angela K.) was very helpful/ knowledge and definitely steered us in the right direction for a beautiful family trip that was reasonably priced. Taxi costs are ridiculously high in Sorrento so having a hotel where you can walk everywhere will save you a lot of money. We never once required a cab while in Sorrento. The restaurant selection within 10 minutes walking of the hotel was endless. We could have stayed 6 months and not eaten in the same place twice. Basic 3 star hotel...excellent value.

Verified PurchaserHotel Edera: Clean and great location
Super clean. the room was small but with two adults and toddler it was just fine. The bathroom was huge and housekeeping tidied up after us every day. There are loads of good restaurants and cafes all nearby and also little food shops and two large grocery stores two blocks away. The free breakfast was plentiful with fresh and canned fruit ,cheese cold meat and lovely crusty Italian bread. Also cold cereal and yogurt and of course pastries and cakes! There is a quiet courtyard with a swing and a large lounging area. Free WiFi and best of all it is literally 5 minutes to the Colosseum and 15 minutes to other main attractions like Santa Maria Maggiore and San Giovanni in Laterano. We were there for a week and would stay there again !
I stayed in Rome, Sorento and Amalfi. The hotel in Rome( Carlton International) was my worst experience with very bad quality and unprofessional customer service. They didn't have hot water for one night. Overall I didn't expect such a hotel and accomadation in a metropolitan city like Rome.

Verified PurchaserClub Due Torri: Amazing Views and Scenery
Having spent two weeks using Club Due Torri as our base for day-trip exploring of the Amalfi Coast, we can't think of a better location or place to have stayed. The room, although a tad spartan for its 4 star rating, was spacious and well equipped with a reasonably comfortable king sized bed. Additional pillows were needed and promptly provided. The view from the room's balcony, and from the dining terrace, of the sea, the Norman tower and the coastline towards Minori and Amalfi can only be described as spectacular. Meals and wine were generally ample and varied with several choices always available although there was a tendency to overcook the fish entrees.
We loved our stay at Darsena, a small but charming spot, the staff was fantastic, the hotel is right on the sea, the food was good and we had wine twice a day! How super is that? The place was super clean, there was a gym (!) and our tour guide for the excursions was very good. The whole package deal was delightful, we are thinking of going again! One thing for those who are unilingual, this tour is all in French, but we enjoyed wonderful people from Quebec as dinner and travel companions!

The location was fantastic. Within walking distance of all major sites. Great breakfast buffet with good variety. We stayed in the new building upper floor which was very quite, newly decorated. Air conditioning which came in handy. The staff helped us book day trips to Pompeii and Naples showed us the best shopping areas and answered all our questions. Two great restaurants just outside the hotel and a grocery store minutes down the street. I would definitely stay there again.
Allegria beautiful tour but if you 30 not like me 67 years old .Amalfi coast is amazing Positano ,Sorrento .Amalfi i Ravello are the places out of this word.But everything has it's own price ,every second night you sleep in different hotel ,every second night you see different town and if you are young that's O'K but I'am 67 unfortunately not have enough strength to do so.Rome is monumental City very dirty and very polluted lot's of sightseeing .If I was 40 I'll do it again because it worth it ,but unfortunately I'm to old for that.

Verified PurchaserHotel Zone: Good value for money
Hotel is very well priced, for a reason! The location is not ideal (30 mins or so to central area); and while they offer free shuttle service to one piazza only, the service is offered only a few times a day (latest return is 6 pm); and you must reserve in advance because max capacity is 6 ppl. There are no restaurants, shops or services near the hotel for the evening. Rooms are small, but clean. Breakfast buffet is ample. Lovely gardens and outdoor sitting area. Small exersize room which is a nice touch. Staff helpful. Good place to stay if you're on a tight budget, but beware of location!

My adult son and I stayed at the Hotel Deals Petris July 14 & 15, 2014 . We arrived before noon and were warmly greeted by the front desk personal . As our rooms were not ready we were shown where we could store our all bags . The staff were very helpful giving us directions and maps . When we returned that evening we were offered a complimentary drink and appetizers on the upstairs patio . That was a very welcomed gesture ! The room and bathroom were clean .There was a nice restaurant directly across the street . The hotel was a short walk to public transportation .

Verified PurchaserAllegria: Amazing trip to Italy
We stayed at 3 different hotels in Rome, Sorrento and Amalfi. All were prearranged for us as part of a tour (Allegria). All were great. Staff was friendly and helpful. One of the restaurants we were prebooked for to have a dinner was closed that night. The tour handled it within 10 minutes and arranged another restaurant nearby, let the restaurant know we were coming and gave me complimentary drinks. Couldn't say enough about the hotels, food and tour guides.

Verified PurchaserBest Western Hotel Canada: Absolutely PERFECT,
We loved everything about the Hotel Canada! It was a great location, and we were able to walk to Termini Station as well as cute,little outdoor sidewalk restaurants for dinner. Our room was beautiful, with a painted curved ceiling and a typical Italian view out our second floor window, which had louvred shutters we could open and close.
The breakfast buffet had anything you could ask for, with the only suggestion I would have would be that the lid on the warming dish for the scrambled eggs should have been monitored and kept closed so they would stay hot. When we returned from our daily excursions, the snacks provided in the bar area were very welcome. We found the Italian people to be very friendly and helpful. It was our first trip to Italy and it was magical! Can't wait to go back!

the inside of the hotel was charming. It has been renovated with many modern touches added. It also had an elevator, which is not always common in Venice. Breakfast was varied and generous, and the location, just a few steps from St Mark's Square was wonderful. Getting there, dragging suitcases from the pier and then up and down several stone staircases was a bit daunting, but just part of the Venice experience.
