If big, shiny, new hotels in the city center aren’t your thing, if you prefer the smaller, more intimate atmospheres, treat yourself to the splendorous Villa Spalletti Trivelli. The plot was bought by the widow of Count Trivelli, a senator of the old Kingdom of Italy. This particular plot caught her eye because it was once home to the well-known ancient Roman citizen Titus Pomponius Atticus, a legendary Cicero friend. It quickly became a prestigious building and a hotspot for politicians and men of culture and arts to spend their free time interacting. It wasn’t until 2004 that the Count’s grandson decided to renovate the beautiful building into a hotel. The hotel itself is founded on one of the original Seven Hills of Rome.

The interior is tastefully designed to provide ease of mind to the guests while maintaining many neo-classical design elements that reflect the hotel’s rich history. Nearly all the equipment inside the rooms is genuine antiques, while the walls are decorated with fascinating friezes and reliefs. The main rooms are decorated with astonishing pieces of renaissance paintings. The hotel offers more than 100 square meters to every guest. The hotel also has numerous fitness and wellness programs on the offer with pristine quality. The Villas also houses many sporting venues, including boxing rings, swimming pools, ping pong tables, and gyms, all with a coach to help you with a start! Villa Spalletti Trivelli is smaller and more luxurious than most other entries on the list, so as always, don’t forget that reservation.

Nobildonne Relais

Many hotels in Rome exploit the city’s ancient history as a selling point in conjunction with their vision in a characteristically modern manner. Bobildonne Relais, however, takes things into a new level.

The Palazzo Merighi was originally constructed in the late 19th century; however, the architecture is one that reflects on Rome’s heyday during the 16th century. In its current incarnation, the hotel strives to resemble the environments in which Roman women of nobility lived during the 16th and 17th centuries, with several of the prestige accordingly named after these nobles.

Crossing Condotti

As we said, Roman history sets a very high bar for hotels to fulfill, a feat at which nearly all Roman hotels aim. A place like Crossing Condotti, by contrast, goes for the polar opposite in the direction they opted for, and the success cannot be overstated. It’s not your typical Roman hotel, but the simple contemporary and modern approach to hotel-keeping and their perfect guest accommodations makes them one of the true heralds of a modern Roman luxury than any number of marbled, colonnaded grand hotels.

Instead of massive frescos, arches, and marble statues, Crossing Condotti instead offers a magnificent pied-à-Terre with five modern, contemporary rooms and one junior suite, all with delicate touches like L’Occitane-style baths. The master chamber and the junior suite house their very own LED-splattered tubs for a singularly relaxing experience. The hotel is decorated with paintings and antique furniture from the hotel’s private collection, to add that extra touch of sophisticated posh feeling.
Crossing Condotti, however, is a small hotel and does not offer room services or an active restaurant, as it strives to be a second home for you, not a grand hotel, so while it is excellently well-equipped and homey, you have to look for certain accommodations such as food outside the hotel. However, much like many others on this list, this hotel is located around the Spanish Steps, so that accommodation will be anything but an issue. This Hotel is located at Mario de’ Fiori, 28, 00187 Roma RM, Italy.

Princeps Boutique hotel

The Princeps Boutique hotel is located in the Monti district of Rome. It is near the train station, and it’s about a 48 euro fixed fare from the International Airport. The hotel itself is tiny, it has 20 rooms that make up the fourth floor of a renovated former palace. Even though the building is ancient, you can tell from the tiny three-person elevator that the hotel is spotless and modern. Princeps Boutique is nicely renovated and extremely clean, and it’s not in a trendy area like Trevi’s dairy or Piazza Navona, but it is in a perfect neighborhood. It’s near the train station, which is super convenient for taking the metro and the high-speed train, and it’s within walking distance to the Colosseum via Borghese Piazza Navona. One thing about the hotel is they offer a complimentary buffet breakfast every morning. Rome isn’t a breakfast spot kind of place. It’s more of a grab a coffee and a pastry and then go on with your day kind of place, which isn’t great when you’re having a heavy touristy day. And this complimentary buffet will probably make your day. The Princeps Boutique hotel is located at Piazza dell’ Esquilino, 29, 00185 Roma RM, Italy.
