Hotel de Russie

A romantic oasis in the eternal city

Welcome to the Eternal City, Rome! Between two iconic squares of the Italian capital, Piazza del Popolo and Piazza di Spagna, which borders the famous Spanish Steps, the Hotel de Russie illustrates the meeting of Italian classicism and contemporary comfort. A favourite bolthole for artists and writers, nicknamed «paradise on earth» by Jean Cocteau, the establishment centres its Roman architecture around a pretty shaded square surrounded by lush gardens. The Hotel de Russie features 121 rooms and suites with distinguished decor, overlooking the gardens and the city's historic alleyways, and offering spacious interiors inspired by ancient Roman history. At the Stravinskij Bar, guests can sip signature cocktails at the foot of the garden, lulled by the gentle splashing of the fountains. The hotel's tiered terrace also hosts the tables of the Jardin de Russie restaurant, where enticing Italian dishes made from local produce can be savoured. Finally, the Hotel de Russie boasts a spa perfumed with aromatherapy scents, where guests can enjoy rituals concocted from Sicilian plants, before taking advantage of the hydro-massage jacuzzi, sauna and steam room.
