Hilton Garden Inn Rome Airport is the only one of the seventeen with a free airport shuttle. Hilton lists a free shuttle to and from Fiumicino, 5 km away, with a restaurant, a gym and connecting rooms, about 43.2 road miles from Largo della Pace by our routing.
It's fourteenth because it's far from the ship and serves nothing free in the morning. Breakfast is "Available for a fee".
Parking is €25 (about US$30) a day, per Hilton, and Wi-Fi is free. Pets up to 30 kg pay a €38.50 (about US$45) fee.
Book it for a cheap-to-reach airport night, then ride back to the terminal for the €130 (about US$145) taxi or your line's transfer.
Book it if
- You want a free airport shuttle
- You need connecting rooms
- You're travelling with a pet up to 30 kg
Look elsewhere if
- You want breakfast folded into the Hilton rate.
- You'd rather not ride back to the airport before the taxi.
- You want a pool.
