I have Marriott points, Chase points and Hilton points. However I would still pay cash just for the convenience of getting a pre-departure Covid test at the hotel. Does anyone have any recommendations? If so, what did they charge you for the Covid test?
Thanks!

We just made an appointment at the nearest pharmacy when we flew back in March-we we’re in Siena but it’s the same nationwide, I believe. €20 each, printed results in 10 minutes. Easy.

We had the same experience in February. Just find a pharmacy nearby.

We use Onpoint medical teleservice. They proctor your test online as you perform it yourself and then email you a certificate. Appointments are 24/7 and cost $15 per person, you supply the kit. We used the free test kits the gov't provides.

That's what we did last week - super easy. https://store.emed.com/s/category/covid19-athome-test-with-verified-lab-report-emed/0ZG8c000000LZXk?gclid=CjwKCAjwy_aUBhACEiwA2IHHQE5tPRVFXMKTc2Ed0FdVAoRatJUQfH7jwnTS10z3RHwZ8Gzh4PyGcRoCkGUQAvD_BwE&c__results_layout_state={}

Also, we used Bonvoy points to stay at The Pantheon Iconic in Rome. It was lovely. We LOVED the location! https://www.marriott.com/en-us/hote...nic-rome-hotel-autograph-collection/overview/

thanks--we have lots of Govt tests. This is a very cost-effective way to Covid test when in Europe to get on a cruise and then to fly home.

The Covid test requirement is now lifted to get back into the US, but Italy has substantial vax requirements for lots of things within the country.
