Overview

Though the hotel is only a short drive from Rome’s many attractions, visitors may find it hard to tear themselves away from the resort itself, with a large spa, gym, indoor and outdoor swimming pool, and tennis court all on offer. There are plenty of activities for children, meaning that the Rome Cavalieri is entirely family friendly. With luxury sports cars available on request for those wishing to see the city under their own steam, or the possibility of a private tour arranged by the hotel, it’s not hard to see why the Rome Cavalieri has been awarded the World’s Leading Luxury City Resort every year since 2015.

Location

The hotel is a short, 10 minute drive from the Vatican City, and only a 25 minute taxi from the very city centre, made easy by the hotel’s complimentary shuttle service. 

Ideal For

Everyone, the Rome Cavalieri is not only family and group friendly but geared up for couples, too.

Style

Though the hotel’s exterior is an imposing 1960s building, the interior is the epitome of stylish opulence. It houses an impressive collection of over 1,000 textiles, paintings, sculptures and pieces of antique furniture, many of which are sporadically placed around the hotel.
