The Capo d’Africa is a 65-room middle-tier hotel housed in a former convent and school that was redesigned in 2001 by architect Harry Gregory. The remodeling shows: There’s a modern and elegant approach to the property's aesthetics, with bright pops of purple in the lobby and works by contemporary artists hanging throughout the hotel. Rooms have ample space in comparison to other area venues and offer a simple decor with modern amenities. The location is within easy walking distance of the Colosseum, though it's a bit of a trek to other sights in the tourist center, such as the Pantheon or Trevi Fountain.

The Eurostars Roma Aeterna is a 144-room upscale property with affordable rates. Rooms, which include suites, are spacious and clean, and some have terraces. The hotel's main drawback is its location in a seedy neighborhood far from the city center, without many shopping or dining possibilities nearby. The convention center and meeting rooms might serve business travelers, but couples looking for romance and families looking to explore the city might want to consider the comparably priced Duke Hotel.

The Hotel Canada, BW Premier Collection has some surprising classical charm for a 73-room franchise hotel. Rooms are spacious by Rome standards with plenty of natural light, but some bathrooms are equipped with tiny shower stalls instead of tubs. The location near Stazione Termini, though, has pros and cons: The hotel is well served by public transportation, but has dull surroundings made up mostly of office buildings. All told, it’s one of the best values in this neighborhood.

The Augusta Lucilla hotel is in a renovated historic building near the Termini train station, which makes it a good option for travelers coming to Rome by rail, or opera fans, with the Rome’s opera house nearby. The somewhat charmless decor puts it in the not-quite-four-pearl category. Special features include rooms with adjustable massage beds and airport pickups that can be arranged when making a reservation. Rooms at the nearby Hotel Rex, also an upper-middle-range property, can be less expensive.

The Hotel Diana Roof Garden is a mid-range property located near the Termini Train Station, giving guests fast access to the entire city (plus the airport) via public transit. Walking to Rome's landmarks will take about 20 minutes. The property has a classic design style, and rooms are clean, with wood floors and nice bedding. Snacks and drinks in the minibar are free (an unexpected bonus), if limited. The on-site restaurant and bar get mixed reviews but the prettily landscaped rooftop garden is a definite plus. To stay closer to the sights for a similar price, consider the Stay Inn Rome.

On a cobblestone street lined by restaurants and shops, the 22-room Condotti Palace has a great central Rome location, within walking distance of numerous iconic sights -- the Spanish Steps are just two blocks away. Rooms are well-kept and have up-to-date extras such as small flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi, but the standard rooms are a bit small. Guests should book a junior suite for more space. It's a great value most of the year, but prices skyrocket during the weekends and during peak season. Still, its location can't be beat and its prices are often lower than its competitors.

Travelers looking for basic, rooms in the city center at a great value will likely enjoy a stay at A View of Rome. With just three rooms -- two standard and one family-sized -- the vibe here is an intimate one, so those who don't want much interaction with fellow guests or hotel staff may want to look into a larger property. The B&B has free Wi-Fi and a breakfast including hot items. It also stays true to it's name with views of some of the city's most notable sites from all of its guest rooms. However, rooms have dated decor and tiny showers, and the hotel has few features.
