Italy: Hotel de la Ville, Rome
Where Rome's Rooftops Meet the Spanish Steps
Perched at the top of the Spanish Steps in Rome's most storied neighborhood, Hotel de la Ville pairs old-world Roman grandeur with a distinctly contemporary energy. The 104 rooms and suites blend classic architectural details with a warm, layered design sensibility, each one designed to feel like a private residence rather than a standard hotel room. Many rooms open onto views of the city's rooftops and domes, a fitting introduction to what waits above.
The real draw is Cielo, the rooftop restaurant and bar spanning the hotel's top two floors, where chef Fulvio Pierangelini's Mediterranean menu is served against a 360 degree backdrop of Rome's skyline and the dome of St. Peter's in the distance. By day it is a quiet perch above the crowds on the Spanish Steps below, by night one of the most sought after tables in the city.
