Luxury hotels in Italy are by far the jewels of the world. When you find one, you feel lucky. Just make sure you have the finances to spend a vacation in one of them–especially given it’s located in a city filled with so much history as Rome, Italy. Such is the case for probably the most important landmark in Rome, located near St. Peter’s Basilica of Vatican City.
It’s called the St. Regis Grand, and it’s probably the best luxury hotel Italy has ever seen. This place can make one of the supermodel markets of the world, Milan, blush with envy. Back in 2005, the hotel was placed on the Gold List for Conde Nast Traveler and had undergone a recent restoration. Believe it or not, every single guest room, at measurements of 380 square feet, and every suite, at 985 square feet, comes with a unique personality, something you don’t see every day with hotels, not to mention an ambitious design style meshing looks of the Empire, Regency, and Louis XV.
You want prime-style first-class eating? The St. Regis Grand’s signature restaurant, the Vivendo, gives you exactly that. With Italian cuisine at its finest, you have the heart of Italy right there. Forget your Olive Gardens and Macaroni Grills–if you want real Italian food, try the Vivendo. One other tremendous feature of the hotel is its celebrity catering. If the paparazzi are chasing you, request the Diplomatic Entrance with private driveway, foyer, check-in, and elevator. The photographers will be taking pictures of the wall, thanks to the help of the St. Regis Grand.
So let’s say you come across the desire to visit Rome, Italy. Maybe you want to see the Pope, the Coliseum, or the Pantheon. Or maybe you’re with your wife on a honeymoon, enjoying the splendor of Rome, Italy. Be sure to check out the St. Regis Grand–where Rome was born.
