Location
Oasis are hard to find at the best of time but deep in the heart of Rome? This five-star hotel (part of the Rocco Forte Collection) is that fertile patch in an otherwise arid desert that can be Rome. Located in the centro storico (historic centre of Rome) between the Spanish Steps and Piazza del Popolo the hotel is within walking distance to what I call the ‘big five’, Spanish Steps, Vatican, Colosseum, Trevi Fountain and the Pantheon, in addition you have easy access to the big brand fashion hotspots like Via Condotti.
Style and character
When walking into the impressive lobby you will be taken in by the impressive décor that marries classic and contemporary design. Colour, design, furnishings, elaborate flower decorations will be your first impression of the hotel. But as you walk through the reception doors onto the patio you will be invited into the terraced courtyard and Le Jardin de Russie, yes, a secret garden in the heart of Rome. A wonderful space for you to enjoy a cappuccino, apertivo, breakfast, lunch or dinner. A special time to visit is on the weekend to enjoy the buffet lunch. And, if you ever get the chance to visit at Christmas time is magical, the hotel is decorated beautifully transporting you into another world.
Rooms
You will not be disappointed by the rooms and suits in the property, you will see the classic and contemporary designs come to life in generous sized rooms, vibrant wallpapers, fun colours and impressive photography and art. The 120 rooms offer excellent configurations combining classic, executive, deluxe and superior deluxe rooms and for some more space you can choose from their suites and signature suites. I love their approach to families and children, excellent room configurations that work for all families travelling together plus a fantastic amenities program for children of all ages.
Rates start at €445 per night for a double superior room in the low season and up to €605 in the high season.
Services and facilities
When taking a break from sightseeing in Rome make some time to visit the spa or enjoy one of the treatments, enjoy their gym, take time to get your hair done in the salon or buy a gift in one of their gift shops.
Food and drink
Hotel de Russie is a place to meet for all occasions. A wonderful space for you to enjoy a cappuccino, apertivo, breakfast, lunch or dinner. A special time to visit is on the weekend to enjoy the buffet lunch. And, if you ever get the chance to visit at Christmas time is magical, the hotel is decorated beautifully transporting you into another world.
So, no matter what time you are spending in Rome, the night, the weekend or a few days, stay at Hotel de Russie or just pop in for a drink or a meal.
