windsurferfirst Posted November 13, 2023 #1 Share Posted November 13, 2023 (edited) Hi Our flight arrives into the airport at 11.50pm. I am thinking it's best to stay at an airport hotel that night and travel down to Civitavecchia port the next morning. Has anybody done this before who could recommend a hotel that is really easy to get to at that time of night and cab company or transfer service for the next morning. Thanks for reading. Edited to add I am 70 and although fit and healthy I don't want to be dragging suitcases on trains.

As usual, the excellent RomeCabs handled all their transfers. No doubt CC will put forward suggestions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted November 13, 2023 #3 Share Posted November 13, 2023 There is a Hilton right in the airport. Nice hotel. Frequently recommended here, we have stayed in it and definitely recommend it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We won't get out of the Airport until 1am approx so it may be a little late for shuttle buses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looked at the Hilton, it looks ideal for one, as it has a covered walkway from the Airport to Hotel. Just a little tip… Sign up for membership, because members rates attract a discount. Also, track the prices from about 6/8 weeks onwards prior to arrival, as they may have “last minute” discounts. If so, rebook first, then cancel the original booking, without penalty. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisemom42 Posted November 13, 2023 #8 Share Posted November 13, 2023 That really is a late arrival. I was going to recommend the Hilton Garden Inn, which is on the airport property but requires a (free) shuttle from the airport to reach. Unfortunately, it stops running at 1:00 am, which puts it pretty tight for you. The Hilton cruiserbruce recommended is probably your best option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tbird58 Posted November 14, 2023 #9 Share Posted November 14, 2023 We stayed at the Hotel Riviera Fumiciano last year for 4 nights & loved it. Big rooms & great breakfast. 2 blocks from the water. They had a shuttle to airport & less than 10 min drive. You could email them to see if they offer shuttle that late, and if not I’m sure they’d have suggestions. We’ll stay there next trip to just get away from the hustle of Rome. Lots of wonderful local restaurants with a lot of locals! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Mkdvmz Posted November 16, 2023 #12 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Absolutely, the easiest, especially at that hour, is the Hilton hotel. We just stayed there two weeks ago, very easy. The walkway is adjacent to terminal 3 where international flights arrive . No need to worry about cabs, shuttles etc. you will be tired. Definitely join Hilton Honors, if you are no already a member Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuterlmt Posted November 22, 2023 #13 Share Posted November 22, 2023 We have stayed at the Hilton at FCO a couple times. Nice hotel, good breakfast and restaurant. Walkable from airport, and covered. Most of the walk is through the terminal buildings. Just look for the hilton sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Hlitner Posted November 22, 2023 #14 Share Posted November 22, 2023 The Hilton is accessible via an enclosed overhead walkway (you access it through the garage) which takes you to an elevator that drops you right at the front entrance. It is the perfect option for a really late night arrival. You can use one of the airport luggage trolleys in this walkway which makes the long stroll tolerable.
