A classic hotel with a lovely rooftop garden
The Colonna Palace stands opposite the Italian Parliament building in one of Rome's oldest neighbourhoods, Municipio I, just a five-minute walk to the Trevi Fountain and the Pantheon.
The roof garden is the hotel’s crowing glory. It’s on the 7th floor and features a solarium and a seasonally open sunken jacuzzi, offering views of the Antonine Column, the Egyptian Obelisk, and the city's iconic churches and rooftops.
There’s a plushness to the traditionally styled rooms here, with elegant furnishings and sweeping, romantic curtains. Choose between modestly sized Classic Rooms if you’re looking for a city crashpad, or upgrade to a Superior Room, Deluxe Room, or Suite for more space. Some of these options even have terrific views of the Montecitorio.

Find out more about Historic Centre
Of all the districts in the Italian capital, the centre will give you the best idea of the fascinating history of this city. Stretching from Piazza del Popolo to Piazza Venezia, and from the east bank of the Tiber up to Piazza di Spagna, the Historic Centre – or Centro Storico – of Rome is a treasure trove of history, art, and culture, where every street feels like stepping into a postcard. The Imperial Forums, the countless churches, the Renaissance buildings and the narrow, winding streets, the squares and the monuments – the centre has the very best of what Rome has to offer.
Anchored by iconic landmarks like the Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Piazza Venezia, this area is a living museum. Marvel at the Pantheon’s architectural brilliance, toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain for good luck, or people-watch in the lively Piazza Navona. Being like a huge, living museum, the Historic Centre was proclaimed a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1980, and is bordered by the Aurelian and Gianicolense walls.
Beyond the immediate attractions, a leisurely stroll will lead you to the Vatican City or the Trastevere district with its cobblestone charm. Shopaholics can head to Via del Corso for Italian fashion, while foodies rejoice in trattorias offering everything from creamy carbonara to heavenly gelato. By day, explore ancient ruins and baroque masterpieces; by night, enjoy rooftop aperitivos with views of the Eternal City. Rome’s Historic Centre isn’t just a neighbourhood; it’s an experience waiting to inspire you. Are you not entertained?
