Roma
Old-world grand European hotel with a genuinely personal touch. Classic Italian palatial interiors — think Travertine marble, original oil paintings, dark wood panelling — but it doesn't feel stuffy. The Wirth family's Swiss hospitality DNA keeps it warm and precise at the same time.
Book a room on an upper floor for views over the Spanish Steps and Roman rooftops — not every room has them.
Why It Matters
One of the most storied privately-owned hotels in Europe. The Swiss Bucher-Wirth family has owned it continuously since 1885 and survived two World Wars and a complete reconstruction in 1939. Imàgo, the 6th-floor Michelin-starred restaurant with panoramic Rome views, is one of the most dramatic dining rooms in the city. The hotel is a certified member of The Leading Hotels of the World.
Perched at the very top of the Spanish Steps since 1893, the Hassler Roma is one of Europe's last great independently owned luxury hotels — still run by the Bucher-Wirth family, now in their sixth generation. The position alone is ridiculous: you step out the front door and the entire sweep of Rome opens below you. Add a Michelin-starred restaurant on the 6th floor, 82 individually decorated rooms loaded with antiques and marble, and a level of institutional service that only comes from a family that has been doing this for 130-plus years.
