What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
It’s tucked away, however, on the sixth floor of a 1930s residential building; it’s easy enough to miss from street level, which only adds to the air of seclusion.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Shops line Via Cola di Rienzo right below the front door, and Saint Peter's Square is a short walk away.
The rooms
The top-floor suite looks toward the dome of Saint Peter's Basilica, and the Junior Suite Spa has its own wooden sauna.
The spa
At the table
Breakfast is served beneath exposed timber beams and brick arches, with made-to-order eggs and fresh pastries.

The eight vibes

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

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.

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.

Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.

Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
