This is one of the outlets in Roma, to tell the truth, it is out of it:)))
This outlet is called "The Castle Romano outlet"
I suppose, that in every hotel, there is an info, regarding it,
but dont pay attention to the advise of people working on the reception desk, not to go there cos of the price is the similar to the centre of Rome.
The prices in the centre of Roma are much higher, really, belive me:)))) then in this outlet

It is very easy to go there by a public transport, but...........believe me, it is more convenient to take a special bus , that costs 23Euro, it will take you from the hotel at 12.30 and will waiting for you near this Castel, untill 6pm. ( so if you are planning to buy a lot of things, it is the best way to do this).
The whole info about this bus you may ask on the reseption desk
The alternative is the public transport, it is very easy, but be prepare to spend much time for this:)))
to know how to reach this Castel by the public transport , please, send an e-mail http://castelromano.mcarthurglen.it/index.php?lang=en
and ask them how to reach thier outlet by the public transport:)))) thet will give you the perfect info.
But , dont forget to ask them HOW TO GO BACK ( because we didnt know this and had some problems:)
The prices there are really nice::)))))

What to buy: There you can buy any clothes (for men, women, children)

What to pay: Prices are lower then in Rome ( not taking to account the summer period)

This shop was found about 4 shops down from the Trevi fountain. All kinds of branded memorabelia. Not typically Roman, and expensive! I am not into brands at all so wasnt that interested, but my sister and sister-in-law were looking for leather purses (to put in their new Italian leather red handbags I presume? haha)... so I browsed while they shopped.

Needless to say, I came out with nothing.

What to pay: EXPENSIVE, and that which was cheap, is pure tack.

In 1887 Rome (within the walls) had its first (and last) department store: it was a branch of a large firm of Milan: it was built using a modern technique based on a structure of iron bars which allowed large shop windows. In 1917 the department store chain was given a new name: "La Rinascente", almost a synonym of "il Rinascimento", the Italian word for the Renaissance.
The small size of the building is not comparable with the XIXth century department stores of other European cities.

What to pay: Average prices - always variety - sale items

Need a pair of gloves to match every coat and/or outfit? Then this is the place to go. Here you will find every color, style and texture imaginable.

What to buy: Sermoneta has stunning and dramatic gloves. I have been to both their stores in Roma and Milano.

What to pay: They range from between $40 and $120 US per pair.

For the most chic ladies in town, this is the place for handbags, scarves, and belts at reasonable prices.

Founded in Bologna, Furla has been known for both its feminine and functional designs. Every Furla collection is the result of research and interpretation, which takes account of the past and observes the present, with the future in mind. According to the designer it is because the true virtue of elegance lies not in its power to amaze, but to interpret what is new and translate it into a style.

What to buy: The handbags and belts will be at a fraction of the price that you will find them in the States (sold at Bloomingdales). Plus some of the styles available never make it to the US.

What to pay: Around $100 US
