From its design to its guest services, Portrait Roma’s main concept is that it is more of a home or a pied-à-terre than a hotel.
How it began
Owned by the Ferragamo family, this restored nineteenth-century residence sits directly above the fashion house's historic flagship boutique.
“mahogany doors open to a long hallway, complete with big, blown-up black and white snaps of Salvatore Ferragamo himself.”
