Review of the Hassler Roma

Hassler Roma’s accommodation is stylish with 87 individually and beautifully decorated rooms, among them 21 sumptuous suites and many with exquisite, expansive views over the Spanish Steps, the Villa Borghese gardens, the spectacular rooftops of Rome or the basilica of St. Peter’s Church.  All rooms and suites are luxurious, elegant, and comfortable, including up-to-the-minute modern conveniences and amenities, individually designed and each with its own distinct look and all emulating the sophisticated, elegant, and historic atmosphere the hotel is famous for. 

Beds - with luxury linens - are roomy and each guest can choose their pillow from an extensive menu. Bathrooms are grand, resplendent in polished marble with Roman vases and feature the hotel’s bespoke brand of bath and body products, Amorvero. All rooms come with Illy coffee machines and mini-bars are well stocked with Champagne, fine wines  and snacks.

The classical colours of Rome including ochre and Pompeian-red run through the hotel, blending with neutral tones of grey, beige and white. Among the most spacious doubles rooms in the city, Grand Deluxe rooms offer walk-in closets, luxury marble bathrooms, private balconies or terraces with garden or city views. 

Located on Hassler Roma’s 8th floor, the refined 330 square metre Hassler Penthouse Suite is decorated with an exacting attention to detail including beige Botticino marble floors, and luxurious Hermès fabrics in hues of dove grey, rich burgundy and orange with unique objects such as a bed-end trunk and footstool in horsehair fabric. There are two main bedrooms, a fully stocked bar area, a living room with a dining table for eight people, a grand piano and an elegant kitchen with brilliant black-quartz floors, induction cook tops, a full-sized fridge filled with Champagne, juices and other beverages and custom-made fine bone-china tableware. Each room has access to private panoramic terraces allowing bird’s-eye views of Rome’s breath-taking skyline. Bathrooms with enormous panoramic windows overlook the city’s historic centre and feature black quartz countertops and floors, double vanity, and chromatherapy showers. A private butler is available to make guests’ stay as comfortable as possible. A special key card allows direct and private elevator access to reach the 8th floor with no stops in-between. 

The Penthouse Villa Medici Suite on the 7th floor features a modern style with classical accents. The private 160 square metre terrace with astounding views is the perfect place for a late afternoon cocktail. Presidential Suite San Pietro on the 6th floor is named after the view it commands, over St. Peter’s Basilica. The sitting room has an antique 1780s desk and there is a dining area, a bedroom, a main bathroom, and guest-bathroom. An exclusive terrace runs along the entire apartment featuring chaise-longues in an outdoor setting - perfect for enjoying the spectacular view of the Spanish Steps and Eternal City. 

Hassler Roma has a sister property which sits next door. Il Palazetto features just four bedrooms including 3 doubles overlooking the Spanish Steps.
