April is Rome at its most classic: beautiful weather, Easter energy and serious demand.

April is classic Rome and one of the strongest months overall. The weather is mild, outdoor sightseeing works beautifully and Easter gives the city a powerful religious and cultural rhythm. The problem is demand: Vatican, historic-centre and hotel pressure can jump hard around Easter and late-month tennis.
