Why now
The fare is $332 per person, $72 below the highest fare we saw for these dates, which works out to 18% less across the 12 offers we checked. Add the hotel and its $57 in property fees, and the whole weekend comes to $1,128 for two before you go, taxes and fees included. A checked bag and spending money aren't in that total. Late October in Rome is ottobrata romana: warm, golden days and thinner crowds. The forecast for Oct 23–25 shows highs of 67°F and lows of 53°F to 55°F, with a 26% to 35% chance of showers or drizzle each day, so pack an umbrella. If you'd rather skip the stop, a U2 nonstop came up at $712 for two when we checked. These are the prices we found at the time, and they can change.
The kind of trip this is
This is a city-and-food weekend for two: ancient ruins, the Vatican and long dinners, all at a walking pace. It suits couples or a pair of friends who like to cover a lot of ground on foot by day and take their time over pasta at night. You arrive late Friday and fly out Sunday evening, so plan on one full Saturday and most of Sunday. It's a quick getaway, not a slow week.

Where to stay in Rome
Our pick is Le Dimore del Duca in Vaticano Prati: $408 for the 2 nights ($204 a night) plus $57 in fees paid at the property. It scores 9.3 from 230 reviews, has free cancellation and comes with a Triple Room with Balcony. It's the best value of the three and the one in our total. Ottaviano Suites, also in Vaticano Prati, is $437 for the stay ($219 a night) plus $61 at the property, scores 8.1 from 466 reviews and has no free cancellation. Tridente Suites in Spagna is $465 ($233 a night) plus $67, with free cancellation and a 9.2 from 811 reviews, the most of the three. Prati is leafy and quieter, next to the Vatican Museums. Spanish Steps / Tridente puts you among the designer shops and grand hotels.
