Rome Wheelchair Accessible Hotels
More so than in other European cities, disabled travelers to Rome need choose their accessible hotel based on their individual accessibility needs. Some Rome neighborhoods are best for manual wheelchair users, and others are best for electric wheelchair users and mobility scooter users.
The disabled travel experts at Sage Traveling have personally visited more than 20 Rome Accessible Hotels to provide our clients with the very best Rome accessible travel experience.

Central Rome (within walking/rolling distance to Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, Piazza Navona, and Pantheon)

The Trevi Fountain, the Pantheon, and the Spanish Steps are all found in this neighborhood. The Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Vatican are within walking/rolling distance.
