"Located on the banks of Tiber, The First Musica stands out from Prati’s grand old palazzos with its modern, cubist design. While the mid-century palazzo was originally designed by esteemed Roman architect Mario Docci, it’s been given a facelift by Studio Marincola, who have brought plenty of light into the concrete building through big, oversized windows. The upscale location of Prati is perfect for people watching—it's one of Rome's smartest neighborhoods. The hotel’s clientele are young and deep pocketed, who work hard and play hard–appreciative of both the big, modernist artworks in the rooms by day, and the DJ sets in the lobby by night." - Maresa Manara
