What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
Its small size means it can be tucked discreetly into a residential neighborhood, in this case the hilly Monti district.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Via dei Serpenti is lined with lively wine bars, and the Colosseum sits just down the street.
The rooms
Vivid cobalt or magenta headboards brighten the bedrooms, where custom desks double as built-in bookshelves.
Restaurant
Spritzeria Monti
Breakfast is served inside the glass pavilion, before the rooftop terrace opens for evening cocktails overlooking the city.
How it began

The founders merged an old hotel with an adjacent residential block, preserving the building's original winding marble staircase.

The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
