My experience in the middle of the day allowed me to get through within 25 minutes. The stores and restaurants had all the duty-free items you may want at a somewhat marked up price in my view. Bathrooms were clean and timely as well - with a lot of privacy and space. Overall, I found myself comfortable in my time here - not bad!

Tons of places including Zara, H&M, Nike, Billabong, Foot Locker, Ikea, Leroy Merlin (which is like Home Depot), Decathalon (which is like Sports Authority or Dicks sporting goods), Sephora (HOORAY), MAC Makeup, an Apple Store (!!!), a movie theatre, and so much more! The parking garage is huge and a little confusing but I don't care, it's covered which is pretty awesome. This mall is totally awesome!!

I'd meant to review this pedestrian mall a couple weeks ago. Galleria Alberto Sordi is a wonderful…read morelittle shopping area with a handful of name brands and Italian designers. Clean and well-kept, its aesthetics are in keeping with Roman expectations. High fashion and elegant stores come together in a relaxed setting. It is also a great place to caffeinate and satisfy a sweet tooth. Algorithmic references: exceptional service, unsurpassed value, money well spent.

At the very top of the building, floor 6 or 7, you will find that there is an entire floor dedicated to a Cafe, hosted by a handful of separate diners to choose from. The options range from pizza, to sushi, to sandwiches, or just coffee and pastries. Come on in, look at the splendor of the clothing you can't afford, enjoy the wafts of perfume, walk past the service members starring you down, and then enjoy a snack up top. Even if you don't buy anything, it looks damn fancy and it's a refreshing spot with free wifi, and a pokestop nearby.

Finally found a department store. Sure everything was on the high end side, but it's nice to see a…read moremodern shop like this inside. Lol, I bought this cool looking French potato sack for veggies for $15! And a bag of chips and Italian condiments for another $15! I guess it's Rome's smaller version of Harrod's. It had a food shop along with the cosmetics and pricey clothes. Security every where along with myriads of shop girls. The down side is the bathroom! Only 2 or 3 stalls in the ladies' WC and no soap at the sinks! Well, at least, I couldn't find it.

Open on Sunday. Check out the summer sale...great prices on Italian brand sunglasses!read more

While in Rome I was looking for a place to go shopping. After doing a little research I found this…read moreoutlet mall. I thought I would take an Uber, but that was going to cost about $50 euro's each way. I did a little more research and determined that there is a shuttle from the Termini station to this mall. Shuttle info: Departure from via Giolitti, 48 to Castel Romano: 9:00 - 10:00 - 11:00 12:00 Departure from Castel Romano to via Giolitti, 48: 16:00 - 17:00 - 18:30 - 19:30 To find the shuttle put Giolitti 48 in your GPS and it will guide you to the destination. You pay for the shuttle when you get on. You can pay with cash or card. The cost is 15 euros for a round trip ticket. Please be mindful of the truth times. I wanted to leave after an hour of getting there and it was no where near 1600 hours. As such I took the shuttle to the Fermi station and took the train back to the termini station. The outlet mall had a number of stores. Some well known ones like Nike and adidas and other European brands. They also have luxury brand stores like Burberry, Missoni, and Versace. They also had a number of dining options. I personally did not think the prices were all that great. They were actually more expensive than the United States in my opinion. I would say do your research on pricing prior to making a purchase. Is it worth it- not to me!

Ground floor is the big names (Prada, Vuitton etc), then there's 2 floors each for men/women. The top floor has restaurants/food - a great place to grab gifts.

Tax refund is down here too, if you spend more than €70, remember your passport and SAVE!

My boyfriend and I came here for a shopping and browsing break. Here are the layout of their floors: -1 | exhibition area, design supermarket, furniture and lighting, office & travel 0 | jewelry and watches, accessories, sunglasses 1 | beauty, beauty bar, jewelry 2 | fashion menswear, shoes 3 | classic and smart casual menswear, denim bar, underwear, accessories 4 | luxury womenswear, shoes 5 | modern and contemporary womenswear, denim bar, lingerie, accessories 6 | foodhall and terrace, café and restaurants, food markets and wine shop 7 | restaurants and terrace I was curiously browsing my beloved Burberry because I heard rumors that the Italians hate England, so Burberry is the cheapest in Italy. It didn't seem all that much cheaper. I had the most fun on the 6th floor browsing the food market and exploring the food hall and terrace. Umm, and FREE BATHROOM ALERT!! Public bathrooms are NOT free in Italy so these are some nice clean free ones. A nice break to escape the crowds and smoke in the city.

My visit to the OVS department store in Rome was nice because they had many selections, similar to a Macy's in the USA and prices were very reasonable. Purrrrr. However, I was looking for clothing made in Italy and most of the items I saw were made in Bangladesh or other countries, Hisssss. That's also the reason the prices were reasonable. No problem though, I simply stepped out and found all the items that were made in Italy in the many big , medium, and small stores all around Rome. Purrrrr. I felt like such a Pretty Kitty doing the cat walk down Via Del Corso carrying my nip in a purrrrfect Italian leather pouch and smelling like a Devine Feline wearing luxe perfume made by "Gatta".
