Anantara Palazzo Naiadi

A masterpiece in its own right, Anantara Palazzo Naiadi is a sumptuous example of 19th century Italian style and design located perfectly for exploring all of the Eternal City’s captivating attractions. Proudly fronting the beautiful Piazza della Repubblica, the hotel has classical design elements such as marble columns, intricate stonework and curated art collections, but with ultra modern facilities. This is one of the city’s few hotels to boast a rooftop pool and accompanying terrace with views over the city. Guests can also delight in 24/7 fitness facilities featuring the latest cardio technology and private training. Fittingly for a site once housing some of the Roman empire’s most luxuriant baths, there is also one of Anantara’s showpiece spas. Guest rooms and suites all have unique touches, superb examples of design, many have balconies and terraces with views of the Square and city beyond. The Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain, Colosseum and other famous sights are within walking distance, though you may find a few tourists walking in the opposite direction, heading to take a look at the square where the Palazzo Naidai resides. One remarkable feature about this hotel is that it incorporates elements of the city into exclusive experiences. Cookery classes include guided tours to buy fresh ingredients from local markets, turning these into wonderful pasta and pizza. An art class incorporates walking around churches and other hidden gems for inspiration, your tutor then helping you create your own masterpiece in a style and medium of your choosing. But, while your food and drink will undoubtedly be great, perhaps it won’t quite be of the standard of the fine dining in the restaurants or the murals, sculptures and works of art within the hotel.
