There’s something so utterly magical about waking up in Rome, and this morning I had the privilege of exploring two of its most exquisite treasures—the Rocco Forte Hotels: Hotel de la Ville and Hotel de Russie. 🏛️
Hotel de la Ville
Hotel de la Ville, located at the top of the iconic Spanish Steps, is a traveler’s dream. Not only does it offer some of the most enviable rooftop views of Rome’s skyline 🌇, but it also places you within walking distance of landmarks like the Trevi Fountain, Piazza Navona, and the Villa Borghese Gardens. Whether you’re soaking up the sun on their rooftop bar, Cielo, or wandering through Rome’s bustling streets, you’re truly at the center of it all. After all, who wouldn’t love a Roman getaway that pairs luxury with location? 🍹✨
Hotel de Russie
On to the next gem: Hotel de Russie, a serene escape nestled between the Piazza del Popolo and the Spanish Steps. Known for its stunning secret garden 🌿, this hotel is more than just a place to stay—it’s a peaceful retreat from the city’s hustle. Perfect for travelers who want to unwind after a day of sightseeing, it’s also an excellent spot to enjoy a quiet moment with nature, right in the heart of Rome. 💆♀️
While these properties are perfect for a luxurious Roman holiday, they also offer the perfect settings for weddings and special celebrations. 💍 From the panoramic terraces of Hotel de la Ville to the secluded gardens of Hotel de Russie, you couldn’t ask for more enchanting venues. And today, I had the pleasure of discussing these possibilities with the wonderful Erika Mori, who showed me just how versatile these hotels can be for any celebration. 🎉
But whether you’re here for an unforgettable wedding or just to indulge in la dolce vita, these hotels offer a slice of Roman paradise that will stay with you long after your trip. 💕 I couldn’t be more grateful for the chance to work and travel in such a beautiful country. Italy continues to steal my heart, one breathtaking location at a time. 🇮🇹
