Bvlgari Hotel Roma

The Best Hotels in Rome Are a Love Letter to the Eternal City | Vogue

"After a four-year renovation of a Rationalist building on Piazza Augusto Imperatore, this lavish outpost opened in 2023 within walking distance of the Pantheon and the Vatican and presiding over the Mausoleum of Augustus. Milanese studio Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel handled interiors with the brand’s signature mosaics, lacquered wood, and rippled marbles, plus handblown glass lamps and 1930s Ginori vases; colorful Brocatelle, red jasper, and Carrara marbles line surfaces across 110 rooms and suites. The spa, inspired by the 3rd-century Baths of Caracalla, centers on a striking 20-meter pool flanked by eight columns of arabesque marble, with treatments using Augustinus Bader products. Dining is a showstopper under three-Michelin-starred chef Niko Romito across six venues, with Il Ristorante on the fifth floor overlooking the emperor’s monumental tomb for dinner with impressive city views." - Nicole Kliest
