Italy: Hotel de Russie, Rome

A Secret Garden Between the Spanish Steps and Piazza del Popolo

Hotel de Russie sits between the Spanish Steps and Piazza del Popolo, its 120 rooms, including 34 suites, looking out over the hotel's Secret Garden, Rome's rooftops, or the piazza itself. The Mediterranean-style, tiered Secret Garden is the property's defining feature, rose bushes, orange trees, mature pines, and a small waterfall running between three nymphaeums.

Le Jardin de Russie, set inside the garden, serves chef Fulvio Pierangelini's classic Italian menu, from cacio e pepe ravioli to grilled sea bass with Himalayan pink salt, while the Stravinskij Bar, at the garden's edge, is known for some of the best aperitivo in the city. The 600-square-meter De Russie Spa rounds out the property with five treatment rooms, a hydrotherapy pool, Finnish sauna, Turkish bath, and steam room.
