The Spanish Steps neighborhood is peppered with some of the finest hotels in Rome — many of them featured on this list — and J.K. Place Roma enriches the offering with its take on boutique seclusion (and giving the competition a run for their money). The hotel’s tasteful design exudes elegance, featuring a refined blend of antique pieces and contemporary furniture, creating eclectic interiors that bring to mind the “La dolce vita” era. The small number of rooms and suites makes J.K. Place Roma a boutique-sized hotel, but the room comforts rival top-end luxury hotels, and service is discreet and efficient. Compared with larger hotels, it lacks a comprehensive list of facilities, but while there is no gym or spa, there is a stylish rooftop terrace bar and lounge — and that’s all we need to unwind after a day of exploring the sights of the Eternal City.

Excellent spa, trendy rooftop bar, beautiful interiors, and a great location at the top of the Spanish Steps make this newcomer to Rome’s best luxury hotels scene the one to watch. Hotel de la Ville is designed to provide the feeling of a home-from-home stay — with decisively luxury service standards — but the interior design is what arrests visually to start with. The hotel is housed in an 18th-century palazzo, and its interiors feature Italian art, gorgeous wallpapers, carved mirrors, with colors ranging from rich plum and mustard yellow to sophisticated powder blues. Among the facilities is the Sicilian-inspired De La Ville Spa, with five treatment rooms, an ice fountain, a salt room, and a hydro pool. There are also four food and drink outlets, with the streetside trattoria Da Sistina specializing in classic Roman dishes. Only some of the 104 rooms and suites enjoy uninterrupted city views, so make sure to book a De La Ville suite for the best vistas, if that’s a deal-breaker.

Housed in a five-story palazzo-style building that dates back to the 17th century, the petite, ten suite G-Rough hotel epitomizes the concept of luxury that feels wholly Roman in spirit and style. G-Rough hotel mixes high- and low-brow luxury, celebrating Italian design in a unique “rough luxe” aesthetic. Located in Rome’s Piazza Navona, G-Rough is the brainchild of friends, business partners, and bon vivants Gabriele Salini and Emanuele Garosci — the pair behind Venice’s sophisticated Palazzina Grassi hotel.

Established by the Swiss hotelier César Ritz in 1894 as the first luxury hotel in Rome, St. Regis has been in business continuously. This heritage is imprinted on the experience of St. Regis Rome, at times making it feel like a museum more than a hotel. The recent multi-million dollar refurbishment embraced the old-world grandeur, filling the hotel with gilded chandeliers, antique sconces, Venetian mirrors, overstuffed chairs watercolor frescoes. A stucco staircase in the lobby, sapphire-blue library, and the oldest in Rome ballroom (the Rotonda, featuring protected frescoes) complete the splendor and opulence of this unique property. But the most valuable thing St. Regis Rome possesses is its reputation of flawless hospitality — and the soft spot for pets. Just some of the reasons why it is the favorite hotel pick of rich and famous.

If the idea of a successful shopping trip for you involves a splurge at a luxury boutique, you could do worse than pay a visit to a Fendi store. But why not go one step further: shop at Fendi’s flagship store but also stay in one of the private Fendi suites, all in one place? Palazzo Fendi enables just that: a two-floor store and a seven-suite hotel, housed on the top two floors of a 17th-century palazzo. Breakfast is complimentary, including in-room — and the hotel’s cuisine is legendary. The luxury design of the suites epitomizes the fashion house’s aesthetic, thanks to rich colors, sharp lines, black&white photographs (by Karl Lagerfeld himself) adorning the walls, as well as lacquered furniture and leather sofas. Located near Piazza Borghese on Via dei Condotti, the hotel also has a rooftop bar and a restaurant, Zuma.

This elegant, art-filled boutique property, located near the Palazzo Borghese, used to house a boarding school. Thanks to the vision of designers Paolo Bonfini and Giampiero Panepinto, Hotel Vilòn wows with a sophisticated style that blends Rococo, 19th-century styles, and mid-century modernism. The combined aesthetics of restraint and playfulness make the property’s heritage and history feel relevant to modern travelers’ sensibilities. The hotel has only 18 rooms, several of which look over the palazzo’s gardens. The facilities include an all-day Adelaide cocktail bar that opens up to the hotel courtyard in good weather. The concierge caters to all kinds of requests, from child-oriented activities and private Rome tours to massages and private dining.

Hotel Hassler Roma, established in 1893, is a legendary property occupying the most sought-after location in Rome, on top of the Spanish Steps. Its claim to fame, among many, is that it hosted Prince Rainier of Monaco with his wife Grace Kelly on their honeymoon, and The Hassler embraces its history and heritage through a distinct Old-World charm. Still, it never veers into pretentiousness, focusing on personalized service and warm hospitality reminiscent of a family-run inn rather than a luxury palace. The hotel features fewer than one hundred rooms. Many are styled traditionally, clad in marble, and furnished with gilded antiques. Some are more contemporary. Don’t miss out on the Michelin-starred restaurant Imàgo — the food experience is the highlight for many guests.

Located off Piazza del Popolo and housed in a 19th-century palazzo, Hotel de Russie was frequented by A-list artists in its previous incarnation. Today it pays homage to these famous encounters in Art Deco themes and signature suites, such as the newly refurbished Picasso (the famous cubist stayed here for three months in 1917). The hotel boasts 122 rooms and suites, and prides itself in featuring the “most romantic secret garden” in Rome, filled with flowering plants and studded with orange trees — and providing a tranquil spot for an alfresco breakfast or an aperitivo.

Some hotels draw inspiration from their posh history; some may even be housed in former aristocratic palaces or townhouses. But Residenza Napoleone III is an actual palace belonging to a real princess — and is named after the emperor who once stayed here. But there is more; Residenza is a boutique hotel of only two guest suites — which is as exclusive as it gets. The extravagant Napoleon Suite is filled with Old Master paintings, busts of Roman emperors, and antique furniture, and it features two reception rooms and a master bedroom with a canopy bed draped in silk. The Roof Garden Suite is more contemporary and charms with a style of a quirky rooftop family apartment, surrounded by lush greenery and fantastic views over Rome’s rooftops.

Located on the top floors of one of the luxury shops near the Spanish Steps, the Portrait Roma is part of the Lungarno Collection, owned by the Ferragamo fashion house. It is regarded as one of the most stylish boutique hotels in the city, largely thanks to the architect Michele Bönan, who injected the project with the extraordinary style of Salvatore Ferragamo, reflecting the splendor and luxury of 1950’s Rome. Old photos of the iconic shoe designer with his famous clients line the staircase, and the atmosphere resembles the spirit of a fashion atelier or a film set. The Portrait Roma’s fourteen suites and studios combine vintage chic with contemporary glamour and are effortlessly stylish. The hotel’s experience is designed around customized service. For example, each room comes with the services of a Lifestyle Manager available as a 24-hour concierge, who will offer a personalized holiday itinerary for the guests.

Sofitel Rome Villa Borghese relaunched, having undergone a thorough refurbishment and a careful restyling, and we love its elegant white-on-white theme in the guest rooms, accented with sophisticated colors of topaz and amber. The visionary behind the striking looks is the French architect and interior designer Jean-Philippe Nuel. Among the hotel facilities is the garden-themed panoramic rooftop restaurant, offering both breakfast service and scenic sundowners — with the stunning backdrop of Rome’s rooftops (all the way to the dome of St Peter’s Basilica). The hotel benefits from a privileged address just around the corner from Via Veneto and overlooking Villa Borghese.

The Palm is housed in an 18th-century building, whose tall ceilings and red brick imprint personality on the interior design. A visual theme of palm trees, reflecting the hotel’s name, runs through the property — in the wallpaper pattern, in headboards, and on lamps. The eclectic design mixes colonial elements, exotic imagery, African prints, and vintage designs, while designer furniture in vibrant and energetic hues stands out against the neutral gray of the walls. The Palm Suite address places it near Forum Romanum, facing the Basilica of Maxentius, with views toward the Colosseum — making it an ideal basecamp from which to explore the iconic ancient heart of the Eternal City.

Among Rome’s newest luxury hotels is a former palace that served as a party destination for Rome’s wealthy elites in the 18th century. Palazzo Dama’s design is as decadent as the lore of the aristocrat’s excesses. The hotel facilities include a mirror-studded restaurant set in a white-and-gold color scheme, a neo-Rococo bar featuring black walls covered in 19th-century paintings, a velvet-draped underground nightclub — a rare facility in Rome hotels — and, even rarer, a marble-lined swimming pool. The Rococo styles in public areas are matched by contemporary aesthetics in the guest rooms and suites, as they are much more understated in style. Only thirty in total, the rooms channel a minimalist style through white paneled walls, jewel-tone curtains, velvet headboards, and contemporary coffee tables topped with art books.

Your ultimate go-to list for travel inspiration
Rocco Forte offers just five suites, each designed to feel like a private Roman apartment, featuring two bedrooms, a kitchen, a living area, and a dining room. Among them is the penthouse, which looks directly to the Spanish Steps from the terrace. The hotel service is designed around a private, personalized experience that can include private dining with a chef coming to your kitchen. Occupying an 18th-century palazzo and facing the famous Piazza di Spagna, the Rocco Forte House in Rome benefits from access to facilities of two sister properties, Rocco Forte’s Hotel de Russie and the Hotel de la Ville, with various restaurants and bars, a gym, and a spa.

Palazzo Manfredi stands on the ancient address of Ludus Magnus, the training academy for gladiators, placing it at the doorstep of the world’s famous ancient amphitheater — the magnificent Colosseum. On this spot today stands a 17th-century villa, and this is where the Palazzo Manfredi is housed. The luxurious hotel makes a splash thanks to its sophisticated style. The designer Giorgia Dennerlein mixed styles and periods, placing 16th-century antique paintings next to contemporary art and classical busts to the backdrop of quirky Palladian wallpaper. The resulting decor is quietly glamorous and discreetly opulent. This 20-room hotel features the Michelin-starred AROMA restaurant, with rooftop dining overlooking the Colosseum.

Trevi Fountain is squeezed between tall buildings and surrounded by busy streets — and is one of the most touristy places in Rome. Thankfully, the nearby Villa Spalletti Trivelli provides an escape from the popular spot’s hustle and bustle. The villa’s entrance is grand and imposing, embedded in a sandstone exterior overlooking a garden with manicured lawns and trimmed hedges. Inside, there are fifteen rooms and an atmosphere of a wealthy friend’s home, rather than that of a hotel. In fact, it used to be a private home before, and an aristocratic one at that. Today, it’s a discreet, intimate hotel with marble fireplaces, antique tapestries and furniture, and a rooftop garden. The facilities include a spa, jacuzzis, as well as an award-winning winery.

Tucked away in a quiet street in the Centro Storico, the Elizabeth Unique looks like a private townhouse — from the outside. But the historic palazzo hides a modern space. It’s contemporary and slick, starting from the dark, ground-level entry foyer to the first floor’s bright reception lounge. The hotel features rich design schemes, defined by sumptuous fabrics and sculpted lines. But what sets this hotel apart is its unique partnership with a contemporary art gallery, Galleria Russo. The striking pieces that adorn the lobby, library, and rooms are all top picks from the gallery owner, and they form a remarkable collection. Guests also enjoy the Bar Bacharach & Bistrot, with the menu of regional produce and fine wine.

Nobildonne Relais offers a laid-back luxury in a property that recreates a Roman aristocrat’s residence from the 16th and 17th centuries. Stone sculptures and trickling fountains in the internal courtyard set the tone outside, but the interiors are the real highlight. The hotel channels a lavish lifestyle and classic aesthetics through the beauty of its decor. It includes fresco ceilings, crystal chandeliers, mosaic floors, antique furniture, and baroque bed frames and mirrors. But there is also plenty of contemporary fine art, and the comforts and service are thoroughly modern.

Their recently redesigned interiors feature Murano lamps, marble baths and toiletries by Bottega Veneta in each bathroom, and vases of freshly-picked flowers, reflecting subtle decadence and luxury. The most important new addition to the hotel facilities is the spa, inspired by the ancient Roman thermal baths. The spa treatments use products from the Florentine brand Officina Profumo Santa Maria Novella.

Chapter Roma is glamorous but gritty, classic but contemporary — it’s a sophisticated urban hotel with a streetwise edge. With the address on Via di Santa Maria dei Calderari, named after the patron of metalworkers who used to dwell in this part of the Regola district, the hotel has a distinctive industrial style that draws on raw steel, brass, copper, and bronze. The building dates back to the late 1800, and the spaces draw on the rough architectural structures and feature exposed brick. The interiors feature striking murals, while the furniture makes a nice contrast to the edgy style, with velvet sofas and armchairs. The rooms are elegant, with a touch of glamour. Going with the hotel’s theme, the concierge specializes in organizing street art tours, and the youthful staff offers efficient and focused service.

From historic grand dames to quaint canal-side townhouses
Cobblestone streets, small piazzas, tiny cafés, and palazzi surround the stunning Pantheon, one of the best-preserved Roman buildings still standing virtually unchanged since ancient times. The Pantheon Iconic Hotel is located just a street away from the famous building. Created by the Milanese architect Marco Piva, the sophisticated interior design hints at the hotel’s namesake in design patterns, polished marble, and brass. The elegant spaces are infused with a boutique atmosphere — even though the hotel is not small (there are nearly eighty rooms). The highlight is the panoramic sixth-floor penthouse terrace, with a bar and a bistro. It’s one of the best spots in town for breakfast with a view, though you can come back to watch the sunset with a drink in hand.

Residenza Ruspoli Bonaparte occupies the upper floor of the 16th-century Palazzo Ruspoli, the family home of the Ruspoli-Bonaparte family (Napoleon III, Napoleon Bonaparte’s grandson, lived here at a young age). Today the hotel is among the most opulent in the Eternal City. It feels like a time capsule, reflecting the gilded décor of the old aristocratic world. The Residenza Ruspoli Bonaparte’s sumptuous quarters feature high molded ceilings and frescoes, intricate trompe l’oeil pieces, gilded chandeliers, parquet floors, marble, and luxurious fabrics — with a grand staircase of 100 three-meter-wide marble steps as the hotel’s pièce de résistance. Residenza Ruspoli Bonaparte has only four suites (one of which is located in a different building), so the service is attentive and personalized.

The building stands out with a 20th-century Art Deco design, with many of its original features preserved — such as the paneled vintage lifts, stained glass, and the stunning marble staircase. The style of the hotel is elegant and refined, with a touch of lightheartednesses, such as in the Singer’s thirty elegant rooms and suites, accented by whimsical lamps and colorful pillows. The bathrooms in the suites are a highlight, thanks to the stunning red-veined white marble. The standout facility at the Singer is its rooftop restaurant and bar with a wraparound terrace.

Thus the interiors are filled with period pieces such as a 17th-century dresser and feature painted glass doors, original frescoed ceilings dating from 1905, hand-carved wooden furniture, and velvet armchairs. Guest rooms are spacious, and they all come with a balcony. There is also a scenic courtyard and a moody retro bar.

Palazzo Naiadi is one of Rome’s very first five-star hotels, and this legacy continues to define its spirit and atmosphere. The design is neoclassic and opulent in the main areas (featuring gray marble, classic columns, and sculpted busts), but the rooms have the signature Anantara chic minimalism. Great views of Rome’s domes and roofs are ensured from the hotel’s rooftop bar and pool, while the address on Piazza Della Repubblica provides easy access to the Termini Station and the chic Monti neighborhood. The hotel has several dining venues (don’t miss the popular afternoon tea!)

From Ottoman grand dames to uber-chic luxe newcomers
Only the sixth hotel from Hoxton to open in Europe, their Rome outpost is set up in Salario, a green neighborhood away from the busy tourist trails. The 192-room Hoxton Rome riffs off the classic mid-century Italian design, starting from the luminous lobby space and the open kitchen to a coffee shop with a takeaway counter. True to its luxury credentials, the Hoxton Rome is infused with an elegant design in all bedrooms, thanks to the collaboration between Ennismore Design Studio and Fettle Design.

Located on the bank of the Tiber, not far from Vatican City, Villa Agrippina Gran Meliá Rome is a five-star property located on the grounds of a former convent and church. The time-worn original brick walls form part of the hotel’s architectural identity, but the hotel has a distinctive, cosmopolitan resort-style vibe. Starting from an olive tree-lined drive and manicured gardens, through the imposing, palatial entrance, to the interiors of the pink palazzo — but most of all in the two outdoor swimming pools. The pools come with a patio bar and cafe, which feature contemporary white-wicker garden furniture. Another sybaritic highlight is the Clarins-branded My Blend Spa, whose amenities include saunas and steam baths.
