Arrival at Rome Termini Train Station at 2:50 pm

Transportation to Hotel Best Western President

🏨 Via Emanuele Filiberto 17 📞Phone: +39 06 770121

There is a taxi stand just outside the Roma Termini station. Make sure to go to the stand at the end of the station and enter the queue for an official taxi. Make sure that they use the meter and confirm before getting in that they will accept a credit card. If someone approaches you and asks if you need a taxi, it is likely a scam! Wait at the actual stands.

By ATAC Metro (Subway)

From Roma Termini Central Station take Atac Metro line A in the direction of Anagnina for two stops, getting off at Manzoni. The BEST WESTERN Hotel President is 10 meters from the stop. While less expensive than a taxi, it is less convenient to travel with luggage. Trains and subways are generally safe, but you must be on guard, the pickpockets are professionals.

Preparing to Return – The VAT

Purchases of many articles in European Union countries are subject to a value added tax. In Italy you may see the tax on your receipt as “IVA”.

You may claim a refund of the tax on articles that will be taken home without being used in the E.U. Here is a guide for the process.

Please review this page about claiming a VAT refund at the airport in Rome.
