Anantara Palazzo Naiadi

What We Think

In a centuries-old city, staying in a new build is tantamount to sacrilege. This 18th century palace turned hotel does the Eternal City justice, with timeless touches in the rooms Caesar himself would appreciate (carved mahogany furniture; flowing draperies). Infamous Italian hospitality includes 24-hour room service and evening turn-down; other amenities include an Old World Europe marble bathroom (yes, that’s your private bidet), a robe and slippers for padding around the palace a la Audrey Hepburn in Roman Holiday, and gratis wifi.

What It Is

A 238-room Neoclassical retreat set over ancient Roman baths, with a modern Roman outdoor pool.

What It Isn't

Stuffy. Note the Asian-inspired day spa with ayurvedic treatments galore and bubbling champagne bar in the lobby.

You're Here Because

You love a rooftop pool, but one looking over the Rome skyline? That’s heaven.

The Moment

In the heat of summer, Rome feels like a Fellini movie sprung to life—especially as you kick back negronis overlooking the terracotta roofs from the hotel’s Posh Bar and Sun Terrace. La Dolce Vita, indeed.
