Hotel de la Ville Inter-Continental Roma

Frommer's Review

The hotel looks deluxe (although it's officially rated first class) from the minute you walk through the revolving door, where a smartly uniformed doorman greets you. Once inside this palace, built in the 19th century on the site of the ancient Gardens of Lucullus, you'll find Oriental rugs, marble tables, brocade furniture, and an English-speaking staff. Endless corridors lead to a maze of ornamental lounges. Some of the public rooms have a sort of 1930s elegance, and others are strictly baroque; in the middle of it all is an open courtyard. The guest rooms and public areas are decorated in a beautifully classic and yet up-to-date way. The higher rooms with balconies have panoramic views of Rome. Most units are small but boast chintz-covered fabrics and fine beds.
