Going to Rome: Vacations, Tourism, Hotels, Things to Do, and Airports

What to do in Rome

Sure, you’re a seasoned traveler who coyly dodges the trampled trail, but Rome is one city where you’d be a fool to have such a mind-set. Pick up the dog-eared guidebook and start in Vatican City, the world’s smallest state with the farthest-reaching hand. Established as home to the pope in 1929, it is the spiritual head of the Catholic religion. Outside of that, Rome is a city of epic proportions, where the remnants of one of the world’s greatest empires melds with the new—a congestion of taxicabs alongside the Colosseum, late-night revelers stumbling home through the Piazza Navona, and pierced teens hanging out on the Spanish Steps. But don’t let the one-and-done idea get the best of you. Locals encompass the spirit of the city—lively debates around a bowl of pasta are about as frequent as wishes made in Tivoli Fountain.

Hello. I'm looking for a place to stay in Rome for 2 nights and in Florence for 2 nights for 3 adults and 1 baby. I would really like a place that has a kitchen so that we can meet all our baby's needs - at least a refrigerator. Do you have any recommendations?
