"Luxury Thai brand Anantara recently took over this property, formerly part of the NH hotel brand—and what a change they’ve made. Given Anantara’s status as a go-to retreat for upmarket travelers looking for local experiences and stories, it’s not surprising that their first Italian property attracts a similar clientele, decked out in comfortable clothes ideal for exploring—think designer brand polo shirts and Tods loafers. Don’t leave without experiencing Anantara’s signature spa treatments, inspired by the ancient Roman Baths. Pro-tip: stop by the rooftop plunge pool, with its Instagram-worthy views over Rome, before the crowds arrive." - Maresa Manara
