Via Veneto of La Dolce Vita fame serves as an apt setting for this 44-key stunner housed in a building once home to Queen Margherita of Savoy. Rooms here are fashioned in the house’s original Art Deco style, with the exception of the über-modern 560sq m Roman Penthouse suite on the top floor, which boasts sprawling, 360-degree vistas of the city ahead. A well-deserved break from the hustle and bustle characteristic of the Italian capital can be had at the new Spa by Caschera, where warming light, fragrances and music create a calming oriental atmosphere.
