At the foot of the steps turn right, and a little ahead on the left you will see trees and a green gate, that's the Lancelot at N. 47.

If you are arriving from the West, follow signs to "Centro Storico" (centre) and then to the Colosseum. If you are arriving from the North, East or South follow signs to San Giovanni (more details given after the map)</p> <div><img class="centred" src="immagini/location/maploc.jpg"></div> <h3>From the Autostrada</h3> <p>If you are arriving from the north, take the Raccordo Anulare (GRA) ring-road to exit 14 (Tangenziale Est) and then follow the signs for San Giovanni. If arriving from the south, also take the Raccordo Anulare and follow the directions as above.</p> <p>Once at San Giovanni, go around the basilica (church), bearing right. At the traffic lights (there should be an obelisk to your left) go straight across to where the road forks- taking the road to the right, which is Via dei Santi Quattro Coronati. At the bottom of the hill turn left, as you turn you will see the steps with pillars at the top, and you will have to turn right on Via Capo D'Africa, we are at number 47. Look out for the trees and gray gate.</p> <p>If your are coming into Rome from Fiumicino airport or from the West follow signs for the centre - "Roma Centro" and then to the Colosseo. Once at the Colosseo take the Via Labicana - see detailed map - (leaving the Colosseum behind you). At the 2nd traffic light turn right into Piazza San Clemente- go straight up to where you see some steps with some pillars at the top, at which point you will have to follow the bend and turn right onto Via Capo d'Africa. We are at number 47 a few meters ahead on the left. Look out for the trees and the gray gate.</p> <a href="#top"><small>return to top</small></a> <div><img class="centred" src="immagini/location/street.jpg"></div> <div id="contacts"><a href="it/location_it.htm"><img alt="Italian" src="immagini/common/ITflag.png" border="0" height="20" width= "30"></a><div id="fb-root"></div> <script> window.fbAsyncInit = function() { FB.init({ appId : '135404799906647', // App ID //channelUrl : '//WWW.YOUR_DOMAIN.COM/channel.html', // Channel File status : true, // check login status cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access the session xfbml : true // parse XFBML }); // Additional initialization code here }; // Load the SDK Asynchronously (function(d){ var js, id = 'facebook-jssdk'; if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;} js = d.createElement('script'); js.id = id; js.async = true; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js"; d.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(js); }(document)); </script> <script>(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/all.js#xfbml=1&appId=135404799906647"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs); }(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script> <h3>Hotel Lancelot</h3> <p>Via Capo D'Africa 47, 00184 Rome, Italy<br> <small>Tel +39 06 7045 0615 Fax +39 06 7045 0640</small> <p class="black"><small>email: </small><b><a href="mailto:info@lancelothotel.com">info@lancelothotel.com</a></b><br> <small><small><a href="privacy.htm">privacy</a></small></small> <div class="fb-like" data-href="http://www.lancelothotel.com/" data-send="true" data-layout="button_count" data-action="recommend"></div></div>
