The Short Answer
Our top pick is Hotel Santa Maria in Trastevere, a 19-room hotel on Vicolo del Piede with rooms on the ground and first floors only. Its 30-square-meter Attic Suite takes five and its Senior Suite takes six, so a family of five can stay together in one of Rome's most walkable neighborhoods.
- On a budget near the Colosseum: Hotel Labelle in Monti has a 30-square-meter Quintuple Room for up to five, with a double bed, two singles and a sofa bed.
- Two bathrooms: Hotel Lunetta, by Campo de' Fiori, has a Luxury Family Suite for five in two connecting rooms, each with its own bathroom.
- Ancient Rome on your doorstep: Hotel Forum, next to the Imperial Forums, has family rooms for four or five and a roof garden restaurant.
- On a tight budget: Generator Rome, near Termini, has a private six-bed room. Generator sells the same room type in London and Paris; see our hotel chains guide.

What to Check Before You Book
- Connecting rooms. Hotel Lunetta's Luxury Family Suite is two connecting rooms with a shared corridor. Its regular Family Suite takes only four.
- The fifth bed. Hotel Smeraldo's Family Suite Town House has a double and two singles; a fifth bed can be added on request for an extra charge, or a crib for a child up to 3.
- Bed layouts. Hotel Forum doesn't list the beds in its family rooms, so confirm the layout when you book.
- Bathrooms. Hotel Labelle's Quintuple Room has one private bathroom for five.
- Babies and cribs. Occupancy rules differ by hotel, and most room pages don't say whether a crib counts. Our guide to what "sleeps 5" means covers the common catches.
Getting to Rome from Fiumicino Airport
- Leonardo Express: a non-stop train from Fiumicino Airport (FCO) to Roma Termini that takes 32 minutes, with trains every 15 minutes.
- From Termini: Generator Rome is a short walk away; Monti is a short taxi or walk, and Trastevere and Campo de' Fiori are a taxi ride.
- With five and luggage: book a larger car or van transfer in advance if you'd rather go door to door.
