Rome can get expensive if you're not careful, so we've found a few inexpensive, but very tasty options to help maximize your budget during your stay at the Hotel Eden.

Pizzerias are everywhere (of course), and often offer more on their menus than just pies. L'Isola della Pizza near the Vatican Metro stop is known for its antipasti, while Panattoni, aka "Ai Marmi" or "l'obitorio" because of its long marble-topped tables, is one of the best for Roman style pizza.

Tapas isn't a typical Roman thing, but small plate dining is budget-friendly and perfectly suited to trying lots of phenomenal Italian ingredients. Primo in the Pigneto district does it nicely, with a wide variety of dishes in a sleek space. Be sure to order off the specials list, peruse the ample wine list and save room for a chocolate tartufo for dessert.

Or skip dessert and head to one of the many gelato shops that do the city. Il Gelato di San Crispino is considered by many to be the best, but anywhere with the word artigianale ("homemade") on the sign is likely to hit the spot.
