Sofitel Rome Villa Borghese

 Sofitel Rome Villa Borghese, has re-opened on 1st July 2019 following a complete redesign by French architect and interior designer, Jean-Philippe Nuel. Situated in a former 19th century Roman palazzo, Nuel has taken inspiration from the building’s original architecture as well as the landscaped gardens of the adjacent Villa Borghese to bring a fresh look with a nature-inspired colour palette for the city retreat.The 78-room hotel lies on a quaint street in the centre of the city, just moments from iconic landmarks including the Villa Medici, the Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps. Each of the 78 rooms and suites features a Baroque-inspired ceiling that creates the illusion of a blue sky above as well as a signature Sofitel MyBed* bed and marble bathroom complete with Hermès toiletries. The crown jewel of the hotel situated on the seventh floor and offering panoramic views of The Eternal City is Settimo - an elegant rooftop lounge and restaurant with bold interiors and both indoor and outdoor seating. Settimo serves contemporary Roman cuisine using locally-sourced ingredients and Executive Chef, Giuseppe D’Alessio, incorporates traditional Roman culinary styles into all the signature dishes. Cocktail enthusiasts can enjoy sundowners with a view, with one of Settimo’s signature drinks which come with specially-paired finger food.
