Hosting guests while in Rome
During your semester in Rome it is very likely you'll
have parents, friends, and relatives who want to come and visit and be
shown around by you- expert on everything Roman. Rome is a big
city with many many hotels to choose from. La Magia can help with
choosing a hotel, hostel, or pensione for your guests. Better yet,
if during your semester there is availability, we may be able to host
your guests in LMI housing. Please ask about availability at least
two weeks before the arrival of your guest. Once availability is
confirmed, a deposit will be required to hold the space. Single
and double rooms generally go for 50 euro per person per night.
If in the case an apartment is available cost will be determined on
location and length of stay. Though La Magia does not offer hotel
services, we can offer apartments and/or rooms in the historical center
of Rome for the convenience of you and your guests. Please click on the
link below for further information.
