Decadent Baroque opulence
The Residenza Napoleone is centrally located right on the legendary Via Condotti. Ideally situated for up-market shopping as well as visiting the Pantheon, Piazza di Spagna, Fontana del Tritone and the Villa Borghese Gardens.
This luxury Rome hotel is a true hideaway for those who appreciate the finer things in life. Set in the 16th century Palazzo Ruspoli, this grand hotel, in Rome’s famous Via Condotti shopping district, was the residence of Emperor Napoleon III himself in the 1830s. The palazzo has been restored to its former glory, tastefully decorated and filled with the best antique treasures that Italy does so well. Enter through the massive doorway and follow the arcade of Doric columns and antique busts to the sweeping marble staircase. Wall-sized oil paintings and 16th century tapestries leave guests marveling at the ostentatious decor. The headboard in one bedroom is an original oil painting, whilst another work of art screens the Siena marble-lined bathroom. Beds are a decadent vision of comfort beneath the silk-draped canopies.
Amidst all the history, modern technology blends smoothly in, with plasma TVs, DVD players, WiFi and fax machines. Service is unrivalled here, with a butler service, a private tour guide and a chauffeur driven car all part of the amenities of this luxury hotel. A bar is sadly lacking, but perhaps the complimentary bottle of Ruspoli family Chianti in the minibar will compensate. Fitness facilities and saunas are all available nearby, along with several top restaurants. Each room has a tiny kitchenette and breakfast is delivered to your door each morning. The Residenza Napoleone offers a unique opportunity for guests to enjoy OTT opulence in a decadent luxury hotel fit for Roman aristocrats.
