Anyone have any idea how this might affect vacation rentals? We have a vacation apartment rented through an agency for our pre-cruise Rome stay next summer.

According to the Rome tourism web site (see here: http://en.turismoroma.it/oggi_a_roma/ultime_notizie/contributo_di_soggiorno), the new tax does apply to vacation rentals. The tax is 2 Euro per night, with a cap at 20 Euros (ten nights).

Thanks, that is not so bad. I'm sure the agency will let us know of the adjustment. We got a great deal on a large apartment right in the center of the historic area.
