The house
GeneratorDesign-led palazzo hostel
The 19th-century palazzo is built for mingling, trading standard dorm austerity for bold decor and lively all-day common areas.
What it’s good at
Notable
Custom metal bunk beds rest on parquet floors beneath hanging Chinese paper lanterns.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Mercato dell'Esquilino's food stalls sit directly across the street, and Termini Station is ten minutes away on foot.
The rooms
Dorms have custom metal bunks with built-in lockers over parquet floors. Private rooms come with en suite bathrooms.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Generator Café & Breakfast Area
Espresso and pastries are served at a white-tiled counter beneath ceiling fixtures made of suspended pots and pans.
At the table
The seventh-floor rooftop pours spritzes across city views, and the indoor lounge serves drinks beneath red paper lanterns.

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.

Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.

A place apart: the property is the destination.
