Nestled in the heart of the city, this 5-star haven offers a regal retreat for those seeking to live out their fairytale dreams. Whether it’s a honeymoon, wedding, or milestone anniversary, this villa promises a princely and princessly experience.
Located just steps from the iconic Piazza del Quirinale and the Quirinale Building, the official residence of the Italian President, the villa is a mere five-minute stroll from the legendary Trevi Fountain, immortalized in “La Dolce Vita.” From here, you can effortlessly reach the Spanish Steps and the prestigious shopping district, featuring luxury boutiques like Gucci, Ferragamo, Armani, Prada, and more. A fifteen-minute jaunt takes you deep into Roman history, as you explore Via dei Fori Imperiali, flanked by the ancient Forums and the Colosseum, the eternal symbol of the city.
This magnificent estate owes its existence to the visionary Gabriella Rasponi, widow of Count Venceslao Spalletti Trivelli, who oversaw its construction. Under her guidance, the villa transformed into a pivotal political and cultural hub, hosting luminaries every Thursday afternoon.
For over a century, this distinguished residence has remained in the same illustrious family. Then, in 2004, Giangiacomo Spalletti Trivelli decided to convert the family legacy into an exclusive luxury retreat. Following three years of meticulous restoration, Villa Spalletti Trivelli emerged as an unparalleled boutique hotel in Rome’s historic heart.
The villa’s twelve suites, two newly added garden suites with private access, and three apartments with independent entrances exude an exquisite blend of classical and modern design. Antique furnishings, vintage maps, and elegant portraits harmoniously coexist with refined fabrics, creating an atmosphere of comfort and relaxation.
Guests are invited to indulge in the authentic Italian garden, a state-of-the-art wellness center, a modern fitness room, and a rooftop terrace with a jacuzzi. Each room boasts a complimentary mini-bar and communal space is open for use at any hour. The villa’s restaurant serves delectable meals from morning till night.
Beyond its lavish amenities, Villa Spalletti Trivelli offers a range of experiences, from cooking and cocktail classes to day trips to the family-owned Pomario Winery. I personally savored their warm hospitality, delectable cuisine, and the organic wines from the winery during my pre-25th wedding anniversary celebration in August 2023.
Here, you’ll discover the perfect vantage point to immerse yourself in the timeless allure of Rome and savor the essence of Dolce Vita during your romantic sojourn. Come, and explore Italy’s treasures with me.
