Directions Questions
♣ What are the directions to the hotel?
The Grand Hotel Plaza is located in the prestigious via del Corso shopping boulevard which is a long straight road which runs from Piazza del Popolo to the Piazza Venezia. All of Rome’s major attractions are within easy walking distance and the location is very quiet as Via del Corso is pedestrianised, open only to taxis.
♣ How do I get to Rome and the Grand Hotel Plaza from both Ciampino Airport and Fiumicino International Airport (also known as Leonardo Da Vinci)?
From Fiumicino you should take the shuttle train to Termini railway station and then a taxi. NB the Grand Hotel Plaza can arrange a private pick up if required? Please book this service under “optional extras” when you make your online reservation.
Ciampino is where Ryanair and Easyjet flights arrive and is the second airport for Rome. Located slightly closer to the center of Rome than Fiumicino, Ciampino is however slightly less accessible due to the lack of a train or metro service to the centre of Rome. You could book the Terravision bus service but we do recommend that you book our private pick up service.
♣ Journey time from Airports to Hotel?
Both train and coach take approximately 1 hour. By taxi it should only take half an hour.
♣ From Termini Train Station?
A taxi will cost approximately 12 Euro but again depends on traffic and how many bags you have (it costs approximately 1 Euro for every large bag you are carrying) Alternatively, you can take a Bus directly from the station to the Stop of San Silvestre i.e. the start of Via del Corso and walk the 150 metres to the Grand Hotel Plaza
♣ Is there a Grand Hotel Plaza transfer service to/from Rome Airports?
Pick-up can be arranged on request. Costs vary depending on which airport you are arriving. Please see the optional extras on the online booking system.
