Hotel Art By The Spanish Steps

Housed in a former seminary, this boutique hotel is a unique combination of original ecclesiastical architecture with modern design, where vaulted ceilings and period windows sit comfortably alongside modern lighting and contemporary pebbled floors. Located in the center of Rome, the hotel is close to the Spanish Steps, just 200 meters from the designer shops and boutiques of Via Condotti. The 46 rooms are individually styled with contemporary designer wood and leather furnishings, and neutral walls complemented by soft lighting. All have bathrobes and designer toiletries, as well as air conditioning, cable television, minibars and Internet access.
A buffet breakfast is served each morning, and guests can enjoy a brunch menu as well as cold dishes, appetizers, cocktails and herbal teas in the Crystal Bar. Set in part of the beautiful former chapel, the bar is a harmonious blend of original arched windows and stone vaulted ceilings with sleek modern furnishings in rich browns and cool blacks. The fitness center with gym, sauna and Turkish bath provides an alternative source of relaxation, or guests can simply enjoy a drink and soak up the atmosphere in the lobby or the secluded courtyard. The hotel also has a concierge and offers room service, laundry and dry cleaning and valet parking. When guests tire of shopping and sight seeing, the Villa Borghese gardens, just 300 meters from the hotel, offer an escape from the hustle and bustle of the streets. Rome airport is 35 kilometers distance.
