Where is Rome?

Rome is the capital of Italy, populated by almost three million people. This makes Rome the most populous city, ahead of Milan and Naples, It is also the primary city of the Lazio region which covers over 6,500 square miles in the country’s centre. Only around twenty miles to the southwest of the Rome city centre is the country’s largest airport, named after Leonardo Da Vinci, and Italy’s western coastline that looks out to the Tyrrhenian Sea. The nearest major cities to Rome are Florence and Naples, both no further than 170 miles away to the north and south respectively.

To get into the heart of Rome by car, you will most definitely have to use the ‘Grande Raccordo Anulare’. This is the ring-like motorway that encircles the capital as one of its most important roads. Its official motorway number is A90 and it is used by over 160,000 vehicles per day. Whichever way you plan to reach the city, just know that there are many aparthotels in Rome nearby public transport facilities meaning you’ll never have to travel far to reach your accommodation once you arrive.

Business Expat life in Rome

As one of the most visited EU cities, it is no surprise that the Rome economy is greatly supported by the tourism sector. It is so important for the city and local businesses that tourists continue to flock to the attractions that are recognised across the globe. Outside of tourism, Rome is also known as a ‘fashion capital’ and the home of the largest film and television production facility in Europe. Both fashion and cinematic industries are important for the city too, not only as contributors to the economy but as reflections of Rome’s unique culture and traditions.

Rome has a business climate that welcomes both new startups and multinational businesses. Several UN bodies are based here and major international companies such as Microsoft, Google and IBM have chosen Rome as a base for European business ventures. This proves that Rome can be trusted as a place for business, but the city is also set up to support innovation and exciting entrepreneurship. For instance, the city has over twenty universities, which pump out a talented workforce each year and minimal red-tape start-up schemes.

Another thing that makes merging into the city’s rather traditional business culture is the wide range of corporate Rome city apartments and long term rentals. Dotted across many locations in Rome they allow travel bookers to pick and choose where they want guests to stay, depending on their business plans.  

Living in Rome

The ‘Eternal City’ is truly staggering and unlike anywhere else in the world. Its irreplaceable monuments that stem from some of the oldest settlements in European history encourage people from all over the world to visit and bask in its beauty. Whilst it all may come at a slightly pricier cost, even just staying in short term luxury rentals in Rome is certainly recommended.

A big part of living in Rome in being surrounded by some of Europe’s most iconic attractions. Whilst not actually in Rome, but instead surrounded by the capital, Vatican City is an obvious place to start. It holds such religious importance as the home of the Pope and the Roman Catholic Church. No more than 1,000 people live in the independent state, but the St. Peter Basilica, one of the world’s largest churches, the famous St Peter’s Square and the remarkable Sistine Chapel are all extraordinary representations of Catholicism and are visited by millions of people all year round. As for Rome itself, however, expect tourists to flock around sites such as the Pantheon, a historic church, or the Trevi Fountain, perhaps the most famous of its kind in the world.

Undoubtedly Rome’s most visited and recognised site though is the Colosseum. It is hard to miss, right at the centre of Rome as the largest amphitheatre ever built. Each year around six million people visit the magnificent Colosseum, which holds around 60,000 people and was once used for famous gladiator battles and popular public spectacles. Be sure to find some free time to visit this iconic attraction, which is ideally within a minutes walk of much self-catering accommodation in Rome city centre.

We also recommend relaxing at the Piazza Navona, Piazza di Spagna or Campo de Fiori squares. Here there is great entertainment and a wide range of restaurants and bars where corporates can let off some steam.
