Hotel Splendide Royal
Old-world Italian grandeur. Baroque and 19th-century neoclassical decor — damask, gilded stucco, Carrara marble bathrooms, antique furnishings — paired with modern amenities. This is the opposite of minimalist, and makes no apologies for it.
Book a table at Mirabelle for sunset — the view from the terrace when the light hits the domes is genuinely hard to beat.
Why It Matters
Ranked No. 1 Best City Hotel in Rome and No. 10 in Europe by Travel + Leisure (2025). The rooftop Mirabelle restaurant and Adèle sky bar command one of Rome's most celebrated panoramas. A member of The Leading Hotels of the World. The building itself was originally a 19th-century Maronite community estate.
A late 19th-century palace between Via Veneto and the Villa Borghese gardens, Hotel Splendide Royal Roma packs a lot into 69 rooms: marble floors, Murano glass chandeliers, gilt mirrors, oil paintings, and a domed skylight that sets the tone the moment you walk in. The real draw is upstairs — a seventh-floor rooftop restaurant with panoramic views from the Spanish Steps to St. Peter's, and a sky bar one floor above that. Voted No. 1 Best City Hotel in Rome by Travel + Leisure World's Best Awards 2025.
