Why It Matters
MORQ Architecture Studio threaded contemporary minimalism through an authentic 1670 palazzo without flattening its character. Original marble columns and ceiling frescoes sit alongside locally crafted wooden beds and Acqua di Parma toiletries. The location is hard to beat at any price — essentially the geographic center of Rome's ancient monuments.
A 14-room boutique hotel inside the 17th-century Palazzo Lazzaroni Cavallerini, entirely renovated in 2017 by Rome-based architecture studio MORQ. Sits on a quiet side street just steps from the Largo di Torre Argentina — the ancient ruins that include the spot where Caesar is believed to have been assassinated. The Pantheon is 6 minutes on foot. Campo de' Fiori is under 500 metres.
