Bathed in grandiose Italian opulence with a splash of Art Deco flair, Hotel Eden defines Roman luxury. Perched on a pretty hilltop with sweeping views of Rome’s centro storico, the hotel occupies a prominent position in the Eternal City. The building’s canary-yellow neoclassical facade gives way to a gleaming Carrera marble lobby, where rich mahogany and warm gold tones invoke a classic Roman ambiance. Plush decor continues across Eden’s 98 rooms and suites, where a monochromatic palette of whites and creams is highlighted by unsubtle splashes of gold. The hotel’s aptly named La Terraza restaurant offers sweeping city views, while top notch amenities like the Eden Spa and an artist in residence give guests plenty of reasons to linger on property.
