Best Luxury Hotels in Rome

Hotel Hassler Roma, Hotel de Russie, Hotel Eden, St. Regis Rome, Bulgari Hotel Roma, Palazzo Manfredi, Six Senses Rome, J.K. Place Roma, Hotel Vilon, and Hotel Splendide Royal. Rome rewards proximity over almost everything else, so we weigh what you can walk to without a map, whether the rooftop bar actually has the Colosseum or Vatican view the photos promise, and how the hotel copes with a courtyard full of scooters at rush hour. A brand entry for St. Regis or Six Senses above tells you what the name means worldwide. This is one specific address near the Spanish Steps or the Forum, judged on that address alone.
