Hotel Barocco

Located on the majestic Piazza Barberini, with Bernini's magnificent baroque fountain of Triton, stands the charming little hotel whose name pays homage to the style that inspired the most picturesque square and monuments in Rome--Hotel Barocco. The entrance on the tranquil Via della Purificazione leads to a cosy, refined hall with sofas covered in beige and orange-striped damask, oriental rugs. The atmosphere of this exclusive hotel is laden with elegance, reserve and comfort.

Spread over six floors, each of Hotel Barocco's 41 guest rooms boasts its own unique layout with some even offering balconies and terraces. From these, you can enjoy incredible views over parts of the neighbouring square, Rome's picturesque roofs, princely palaces and flowered penthouses. The interiors boast soft floral fabrics in shades of blue and red, cherry wood, mirrors and precious marbles in the bathrooms. Walls are decorated by 19th-century prints and oil paintings featuring floral compositions, peaceful landscapes and Turkish-style scenes. Elegantly-set tables with damask tablecloths greet guests for a lavish and inviting American-style breakfast which offers - besides the usual selection of yoghurts, cereals, fresh fruit, fruit salad, croissants, ham, eggs and bacon pastries and home-made cakes such as sponges, tarts and puff pastry. Then there are the typical Italian cheeses which vary periodically, thus giving guests an opportunity to enjoy the ample variety of Italy's regional specialities.

Set within the limits of the ancient city of Rome, Hotel Barocco's excellent location puts you within a comfortable distance from the most important sights and historic monuments of the Eternal City. Piazza di Spagna, Trevi fountain, the Roman Forum, Colosseum and even the Pantheon are all within 500 metres from the hotel.
