Castel Romano Designer Outlet: shuttle from Rome, hours and tips for 2026

Updated on October 26, 2026

Castel Romano Designer Outlet (McArthurGlen) is a discount designer-brand shopping centre about 25 km south of Rome, in the countryside towards Pomezia. The simplest way to get there without a car is the paid shuttle from Termini station, about 18 € round trip for an adult (free for under-10s); there is also a shuttle from EUR Fermi and a combined train + shuttle ticket from Trenitalia. Hours vary by season (usually 10:00 to 20:00, later in summer): check the official site before you go. Allow half a day to a full day including travel.

Highlights

The setting

The setting

The centre is an open-air village of shops in the middle of the Roman countryside (pictured, the neighbouring WWF oasis of Castel Romano). The brands are those you find in outlets of this kind: fashion, sport, home, with discounts shown against original prices.

When to buy

The best reductions come during the winter sales (January-February) and summer sales (July-August); outside the sales, compare with the shop price before buying. Weekends are very busy: go on a weekday if you can.

Shuttle or car

The shuttle saves tolls and parking but fixes your return times, in late afternoon or evening. A rental car gives more freedom and combines with a trip to Ostia or Pomezia, but traffic on the Via Pontina is heavy at the end of the day.

Practical info

Tips

  • Book the shuttle in advance in high season. Note the last return time before you start shopping. For tax-free purchases, keep your passport: travellers from outside the European Union can claim a refund, depending on the amount spent. Shuttle hours and fares noted in October 2026 from sources that do not always agree: confirm them.

How to get there

Via del Ponte di Piscina Cupa 51, Castel Romano (Pomezia). Shuttle from Termini (Via Giolitti 48, in front of the station), about 45 minutes. By car: GRA ring road then Via Pontina, about 40 minutes. Our guide to Termini station gives the departure details.
