Facility Notes
Facility Reviews
Often very crowded and a bit too warm, but well located and reasonably priced, as pools in Rome go.
Not very fancy!
They are serious about the medical certificate requirement.
Fast swimmers should arrive at opening time (6:55 AM); after 7:30 it gets crowded and no one has a problem dropping in and starting a grandma pace breast stroke in front of you. They swim like they drive…
Admission:
Annual membership is €30, and open to anyone with a health certificate. Swim cards for 10 swims are then €100 (other cards for more swims at less per swim are also available). No credit cards accepted.
Hours:
Lap swim (called nuoto libero, free swim) times are available daily, including Sunday, mostly in the morning, with 1-4 lanes available, depending. The schedule varies from day to day so be sure to check.
Conditions:
The water is cloudy but otherwise clean, very slightly too warm. Pull buoys and kickboards are available poolside. The facilities are clean. The pool is always busy, sometimes very crowded, with the best times I tried 0700-0800 and 1200-1300. The lifeguards pay attention and move people as necessary, depending on speed and activity.
Other items:
The staff is very friendly and helpful, even with language barriers.
Swimmers generally follow swim etiquette, and are reasonably polite and accommodating.
In addition to the free swim times, one or two 50-minute coached practices (nuoto controllato) are available Monday through Saturday with the same admission card. These are really fun, with a range of abilities, and the Italians are happy to translate as well as they can (with humorous results sometimes). In Italy, butterfly is called, delfino, (dolphin), and what they call butterfly is butterfly arms with a frog kick.
Admission includes the thermarium.
Bare feet are not allowed except in the pool itself. Shoe covers (which are provided) are required for the locker rooms, and flip flops for the showers and pool deck.
The building is barely visible from the sidewalk or road. It is behind a wall that runs all along the north side of Via Marmorata. The entrance to the facility is a gated driveway across from Via Giovanni Battista Bodon.
The health certificate is a hard requirement. A letter from my doctor stating, "I examined so-and-so on XXX date and found her in good health and capable of performing physical activity," worked for me.
