Salotto Monti
Urban-chic boutique with strong design identity. Three distinct aesthetic moods across the rooms: 'pop' (bold stripes, modern art), 'natural' (earthy tones), and 'elegant' (antique wood, gilded mirrors). Thoroughly Roman in character — local neighbourhood energy, not tourist-bubble insulation.
Book the Junior Suite specifically for its rooftop views — same 30m² footprint as the Triple Room but with a proper city panorama
Why It Matters
Michelin Guide-listed boutique in Rome's most culturally alive neighbourhood, operated by BZAR hotels. The Fornasetti wallpaper and individually designed rooms at a price point well below the luxury bracket is the real draw. Also offers complimentary BZAR Experiences — guided city tours, cooking classes, and fitness sessions — included in every stay.
Salotto Monti is a 3-star boutique property in Rome's Rione Monti — Rome's first rione, practically in the shadow of the Colosseum. It sits in a residential palazzo just off Via Nazionale, on the third floor (ring 114 at the door). The place belongs to BZAR hotels' 'Hideaway' category: intimate, design-led, and completely lacking the anonymous corporate energy of chain hotels. No pool, no spa, no restaurant — but a rooftop terrace that earns its keep, pulling double duty as a breakfast spot in the morning and an aperitivo perch at sunset. Rooms come in nine distinct types from a snug 12m² double to an 80m² two-bedroom apartment, each with its own colour scheme, Fornasetti wallpaper, and parquet floors.
Where You'll Stay

Executive One-Bedroom Apartment with Bathtub
42m² and the first category to include a proper bathtub, which is a rarity at this price point. Kitchen corner with fridge, oven, and kitchenware. Sleeps up to 3 adults with a double and a single. Good for couples who want the extra space, or a parent with a child.
1 double bed + 1 single bed, cot on request · 42 sqmJunior Suite with City View
Same 30m² as the Triple Room but the upgrade that actually matters: a proper city view over Rome's rooftops. Soundproofed, king-size bed, parquet floors. Book this one if you're here for a romantic stay — the morning light is reportedly spectacular.
