Eitch Borromini at Palazzo Pamphilj is one of Rome's most elegant options. How many times will you ever stay in a 17th-century Italian palace? It's located right on Piazza Navone; many of Rome’s major attractions are within walking distance.

This is not an inexpensive hotel but a former palace belonging to the Pamphilj family, one of Rome's most influential and noble families in the 16th and 17th centuries. It was designed by famed architect Francesco Borromini.

The Terrazza Borromini, the hotel's rooftop bar, offers spectacular views! Not just of Rome but a close-up of the dome of Sant'Agnese in Agone, the church Pope Innocent X had built for his family beside their palazzo.

The hotel's decor blends modern elements with the property's historic past. The location is fantastic: in the heart of Centro Storico, Rome's historic area. The surrounding streets are narrow, making it longer to reach by cab or public transport.

HOW TO GET TO THE HOTEL FROM THE AIRPORT:

Take the Leonardo Express from the airport to the Termini Train Station. Take a taxi to the hotel. OR catch bus 64 for 10 stops. Get off at Corso Vittorio Emanuele/Navona. Walk 400 metres to the Hotel at Via Santa Maria dell'Anima, 30. OR ask the hotel about a private transfer.
