MORE INFORMATION
Location
Located in the prim residential neighbourhood of Prati, you're within walking distance of the Vatican; be sure to visit the 16th-century St Peter's Basilica.
There's a metro station close by with connections to the central hub of Termini.
By plane: London to Rome takes 2 hours 25 minutes; Manchester to Rome takes 2 hours 40 minutes - after which, it's a 40-minute drive to the hotel. Paid on-site parking available. Book flights to Rome.
Style
The décor is a riot - and you'll either love it or hate it. The main restaurant mixes floral-patterned fabrics with colourful rattan lampshades. Everything has been dialled up to 11 - certainly not minimalist or subtle.
Service & Facilities
Facilities include a small basement gym and a spa with indoor pool, sauna and stem room. Young staff are friendly and accommodating - eager to give local recommendations.
