Hideaways' Review |
When your passion for art, travel, and la dolce vita inevitably draw you to the Eternal City, you'll find few accommodations that can boast the prestigious history and primo location of the Hotel d'Inghilterra. Once the aristocratic abode of the 16th century Princes of Torlonia, it was later the hotel of choice for Byron, Keats and Shelley in the 19th century, and icons Elizabeth Taylor and Gregory Peck, Mark Twain and Ernest Hemingway in the 20th century. Today, international celebrities, noblemen and elite world travelers still unwind in the hotel's cozy sitting rooms, surrounded by rich wood paneling, antique period furniture, and Neapolitan scenes from the hotel's private collection of valuable artwork.
While history and unmistakable refinement reign supreme, contemporary taste blends seamlessly with quintessential Italian style for unsurpassed luxury that appeals to all the senses. A true homage to individual style, each of the hotel's 89 guest rooms and suites offers its own distinctive details and layout—as if some benevolent and eccentric host has invited you as his personal guest, to experience the exclusive welcome that was once reserved for the illustrious associates of the Torlonian royalty. The sensation of being in one of the great historical palaces of the past is accentuated by the pleasure derived from the most modern and sophisticated standards of service and comfort.
Beyond the walls of your private palace, the ancient monuments and world-class shops along enchanting Via Borgogna beckon. After you answer their call, slip into The Hotel d'Inghilterra's renowned restaurant, the Café Romano, for traditional Mediterranean cuisine prepared with a chic metropolitan flair. For an authentically British experience, however, be sure to visit the hotel's Bond Bar for the perfect martini—shaken, not stirred. |
