The Baroque Rome of Bernini, Borromini and Pietro da Cortona, the city that tourists admire everyday by just walking through its streets and across its piazzas finally has a hotel which gracefully offers that same decor and furniture once only to the noble palaces of 17th century Roman aristocracy. Here, at the Hotel Splendid Royal in Rome, the lush and rich sumptuousness of the city's Baroque period comes to life again. The Murano glass chandelier which Luchino Visconti chose for the ballroom scene in his masterpiece film 'The Leopard', now lights up the hotel's hall amidst the marble floors' geometric designs. The Hotel Splendide Royal is situated in the Via Veneto area, on a hill directly above the historic centre of Rome with magnificent views out over the green gardens of Villa Borghese. The exclusive shops and designer boutiques of Rome's fashion industry are just a few steps away in the legendary Piazza di Spagna and Via dei Condotti. A stroll through the historic centre leads visitors to an infinite number of monuments and tourist attractions; whilst for those choosing to hop onto the Linea A of the city underground at the nearby Piazza Barberini station, the treasures of the Vatican City are just moments away. The rooms are characterised by the luxury and spaciousness reminiscent of the elegant boudoirs of the aristocracy, featuring sumptuous Baroque style decors and nuances; boiseries, fine draperies and antique furniture all creating an exclusive yet warmly welcoming atmosphere.
