Rome is a year-round city, and you can really visit at any time of
year . Some times, however, are better than others. If you can, you
should avoid visiting Rome in July and August , when the weather is hot
and sticky, and those Romans that don't make their living exclusively
from the tourist industry have left town; many businesses are closed,
and in those places that are open most of the patrons will be fellow-tourists.
The weather is more comfortable in May, June and September , when most
days will be warm but not unbearably so, and less humid, though you'll
still find the city busy during these times; April , outside of Easter,
and October , are quieter and the weather can still be clement - making
this in many ways the ideal time to come. The winter months can be nice,
with many of the city's more popular sights pleasantly uncrowded: the
weather can be rainy but the temperatures are usually mild. Whenever you
visit, you'd be well advised to book your accommodation in advance.
