The Hassler Hotel in Rome sits at the top of the Spanish Steps, one of the most coveted and premium locations in Rome and making it one of the most photographed hotels in the world.
Since its opening in 1893, it has held some of the most exclusive views in the world, overlooking the churches, domes and rooftops of the Eternal City. It is also within walking distance of the Villa Borghese gardens, Via Veneto, Via Condotti and the most fashionable boutiques in the area; making it perfect for those wishing to explore the city.
Royals, celebrities, diplomats, writers and business leaders alike have all graced the Hassler over the years to discover the unique combination of sophisticated luxury, attentive service and perfect location. The Hassler is owned by Roberto E. Wirth, a fifth-generation member of the famous Swiss hotelier family who became co-owners of the hotel with the Hasslers in the 1920’s. Mr Wirth welcomes guests to the Hassler with the highest levels of consideration and care, as he would into his own home.
The hotel comprise 92 rooms, including 13 suites, that aim to reflect a classic and elegant ambience incorporating contemporary elements to delicately balance the past with the present. There are also the traditional common areas where locals and guests can meet, including the renowned Salone Eva, the cosy Hassler Bar and the outdoor Palm Court in Spring and Summer.
The Palm Court is a garden restaurant and bar surrounded by ancient stone walls, flowers and ivy. It offers a luxurious retreat from the Roman summer heat and a wide choice of food served all day long.
Salone Eva offers a beautiful taste of family tradition and is the top choice for a fine dining rendezvous for locals and guests. Fine Italian wines, Rome’s best cocktails and after-theatre snacks can be enjoyed while live piano music plays in the background.
Beside Salone Eva, the Hassler bar is a cosy hidden cocktail bar ideal for an after-dinner drink. Many famous icons have visited over the years; Princess Diana once confessed to Mr. Wirth that she had enjoyed one of the world’s best ‘Bellinis’ here!
But the Hassler’s crown jewel is Imàgo, the Michelin starred rooftop restaurant. Located on the 6th floor; it offers not only a breath-taking view of Rome, but it is also the contemporary Italian cuisine of the well-known Chef Francesco Apreda. The panoramic restaurant is much loved by the Roman locals and international guests alike for its magical and romantic atmosphere, steeped in memorable history.
As with many of the Hassler rooms and terraces, the Amorvero Spa has a breath-taking view of the city as well. There are sauna, steam bath and fitness room facilities, as well as a terrace where you can sit and relax in the sunshine. The spa also has highly trained and well-qualified staff offering an array of traditional massages and treatments to help bring wellness to your body and mind.
