Discover Rome Edition, a luxurious haven immersed in Italian flair and unparalleled elegance, where history meets luxury!
Rome, the eternal city of awe-inspiring masterpieces, has welcomed a new landmark that epitomizes sophistication and luxury – the Rome EDITION. As the brainchild of the visionary entrepreneur, Ian Schrager, and brought to life by the creative minds at Statuto Group, this intimate 91-room boutique hotel redefines opulence in the Eternal City.
Artistic Heritage
Nestled in one of Rome’s most enviable locations, just a stone’s throw away from Via Veneto – immortalized in the iconic film “La Dolce Vita” – the Rome EDITION exudes Italian flare at every turn. With the Piazza Barberini, Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain, and Borghese Gardens in close proximity, guests have access to Rome’s major attractions without compromise.
The building itself is a stunning example of the rationalist architectural style, conceived in the 1940s by Cesare Pascoletti and Marcello Piacentini. The preservation of original features, such as the central courtyards, statues, and lamps, lends an aura of timeless elegance to the space. Of particular note is the breathtaking central staircase crafted from rare cipollino marble sourced from the quarries of Apuane – a true testament to architectural genius.
Culinary Delights
Rome is renowned for its culinary prowess, and the Rome EDITION proudly upholds this tradition. Chef Paola Colucci, the hotel’s esteemed partner, helms the signature restaurant Anima, offering guests an unforgettable dining experience. Colucci’s love for emotionality in food and connection with her guests is evident through the open-fronted kitchen, where her culinary masterpieces come to life. Expect a fusion of traditional Italian dishes with a modern twist, all crafted from family recipes passed down through generations. Anima’s menu highlights seasonal and fresh ingredients, with an emphasis on food and wine pairings that showcase the best of Italy.
Social Heart and Extravagant Bars
At the Rome EDITION, the social heart of the hotel resides in The Lobby – a striking space with 22 ft-high ceilings and porous travertine floors and walls. This inviting area serves as a meeting place for guests to unwind, socialize, and enjoy games of pool on a custom-made table.
For those seeking the finest mixology in the city, the Rome EDITION boasts two unique bars: Punch Room and Jade Bar. Punch Room, inspired by traditional punch recipes of the 17th century, offers a modern twist on classic cocktails in a speakeasy-inspired ambiance. Meanwhile, Jade Bar presents an intimate space for connoisseurs, with a gallery of flavor-changing cocktails based on seasonal ingredients.
Unparalleled Views and Elegance
On the seventh floor, The Roof provides unobstructed views of Rome’s iconic skyline and landmarks, including the Pantheon and Acqua Paola Fountain. The rooftop oasis features a travertine plunge pool, daybeds in oiled teak, and a large bar area. Chef Colucci’s love for the Mediterranean Sea shines through in the delectable dishes offered here, complemented by a truly Italian cocktail list.
Sumptuous Guestrooms
The guestrooms at the Rome EDITION embrace the brand’s renowned design aesthetic, infused with Italian flair. Custom-designed Canaletto light walnut wood beds, picturesque windows framing Italian landscapes, and unique Italian artwork create an atmosphere of unparalleled elegance. Each room is equipped with luxurious amenities, including a 55-inch television and signature EDITION Le Labo bath products.
The Rome EDITION is a testament to the harmonious convergence of art, culture, and culinary excellence. Immerse yourself in the city’s vibrant heritage and indulge in the pinnacle of luxury. With EDITION, there’s no place like Rome.
