Hotel de la Ville, a Rocco Forte Hotel
Hotel de la Ville brings Rocco Forte’s colorful contemporary glamour to an 18th-century palazzo above the Spanish Steps, with 104 rooms, panoramic terraces and a technologically ambitious subterranean spa.
Hotel de la Ville sits on Via Sistina at the top of the Spanish Steps, giving guests immediate access to Piazza di Spagna, Via Condotti and the historic center while remaining elevated above much of the street activity.
The 18th-century palazzo contains 104 rooms and suites—89 rooms and 15 suites—layering classical references, antiques and Grand Tour-inspired fabrics with a much more playful contemporary sensibility.
Entry rooms begin around 28 square metres, but the suite collection grows dramatically. The six-bedroom De La Ville Panoramic Penthouse spans 358 square metres across two levels with terraces overlooking central Rome.
Irene Forte Spa occupies a subterranean thermal setting with five treatment rooms, hydro pool, salt room, sauna, steam, ice fountain, Kneipp baths, infrared loungers and a full-body cryotherapy chamber. Cielo’s rooftop terrace turns sunset into another signature experience.
Hotel de la Ville is best for travelers who want the Spanish Steps at the doorstep but prefer bold contemporary Roman luxury to traditional grand-hotel restraint, especially when rooftop life and serious wellness both matter.
