Preserving Architectural and Political History

During extensive renovations, workers meticulously preserved and rediscovered original interior details that honor the building’s storied past. Guests are greeted in a striking lobby entrance featuring a magnificent golden star inlaid by renowned sculptor Giò Pomodoro, which flows naturally into a grand marble staircase.

Luxury Accommodations and Artistic Flair

Nearly a third of the property’s exclusive accommodations consist of 19 spacious suites, highlighted by a sprawling 104-square-meter Thompson Suite equipped with an 80-square-meter private terrace. Public spaces and guest rooms are beautifully adorned with artwork curated from 20th-century Roman movements like the Scuola Romana alongside contemporary pieces. This devotion to aesthetic excellence rivals the artistic soul found across many medieval villages in northern Italy.
