PRELIMINARY INFORMATION ABOUT ACCOMMODATION
As in previous years, accommodation is available at the Casa della Spiritualità and Istituto Orsoline di
Maria Immacolata, both close to the Orto Botanico. These are hostels with very simple rooms and a plain
breakfast, really convenient but not hotels and therefore with limited facilities and staffing. They also
close at 2300, so you must consider this when planning your arrival in Roma, as well as during your stay.
For women only, it will be possible to stay at the “Foresteria Orsa Maggiore - Casa delle Donne”, also close
to the Orto Botanico, where there is dormitory accommodation or double and multiple rooms, accordingly
to availability.
Details of prices, availability and reservation schedules will be made available on the website
