Move over, "Gay Paree" - It's "Gay Rome"

| Wed, 06/16/2010 - 06:49

Via San Giovanni in Laterano at night: soon to become a pedestrian zone, this area of Rome's Celio district has become a meeting place for night owls, party people, artists, and, recently, for the gay community in the city.

The street boasts clubs and bars that make the area an exciting night-time venue and among the newest, at number 196, is Bar Eleven. Inside you will find a silver, black and red colour scheme and three rooms, one comprising a dance floor, where music is played. You will also be able to choose from American cocktails and fine wines.

The best known bar in the area, Coming Out, is at number 8 and here you will find a warm welcome and a décor style reminiscent of New York. The food is excellent and the bar is open from 10 am to 2 am.

This summer the area will be buzzing with life and music as famous Italian pop stars arrive to perform there.

In the midst of all this is the Hotel Capo d'Africa, with its contemporary interior set in an early nineteenth century building. The hotel has 64 comfortable rooms and a studio suite with a private terrace. The hotel is home to an impressive collection of Italian contemporary art and has a roof terrace with stunning views over Rome's historic sights, including the nearby Colosseum. It has a bar and lounge and all day “à la petite carte” dining.

It should be emphasised that the Hotel Capo d'Africa is for everyone and business clients and families with children are welcomed. The hotel is currently offering a “Friendly Rome” package from €430.00 per night. The package includes: the studio suite, champagne breakfast in the room, scented bath salts and candles in the bathroom and one night's free Pay TV. This promotion can be booked exclusively through the hotel's reservations office:
