Where to Stay in Rome, Italy: The Luxurious Palazzo Manfredi Hotel
BY Aileen Adalid / 11 Comments
Rome was one of my stops during my trip to Europe early this year, and for such a magnificent place, I wanted an equally magnificent stay wherein I can bask in all of the glory that this ancient city holds! In my search on the best accommodation for my staycation, I stumbled upon Palazzo Manfredi Hotel who was just a stone’s throw away from one of the greatest symbols of Rome — the Colosseum.
I imagined spending my days and nights with that view right outside the window and I just knew that I finally found my ‘temporary home’ for my Roman trip!
Here’s why you should make it as yours too…
.
Rich Heritage. The building of Palazzo Manfredi Hotel was first built in the 17th century and functioned as the villa of Evangelisti family and later on passed to the Venerabile Confraternita della Santissima Trinità dei Pellegrini e dei Convalescenti (Venerable Fraternity of the Holy Trinity of Pilgrims and Convalescents) — as signified by the two stones on the hotel’s façade. By the turn of the 18th century, it was rebuilt and owned by the noble Guidi family as part of the area “Giardino Guidi”, and by 2002 it was purchased by Count Goffredo Manfredi (on of Italy’s most famous magnates) who ushered the start of today’s luxurious Palazzo Manfredi.
Grand Neighbours. Like I’ve already mentioned, this boutique hotel is just a few meters away from the highlights of ancient Rome so you can witness history unfold before your very eyes: from the nearby ruins of Ludus Magnus (the largest gladiatorial school), the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, the Palatine Hill and more!
A Lux Gem. Right from the lobby, to your room, and up to the terrace, Palazzo Manfredi does not skimp on lush elements to provide you the most luxurious items and materials in its interiors. It just shows you how they truly aim to bring to their guests a high level of elegance and comfort!
» ROOMS «
Palazzo Manfredi has a wide range of rooms and each has its own stunning views for you to choose from. All in all, be assured that you will have an absolutely fulfilling experience what with its modern comforts that all offer free WiFi and exclusive bath amenities by Battistoni.
» DINING «
AROMA Restaurant. Palazzo Manfredi’s Michelin-starred restaurant holds an array of classic Italian dishes served in an outdoor terrace setting that has the perfect views of the Colosseum. At 40 seats, it is not only fitting for intimate affairs but also fitting for bigger private parties as you get to savour Chef Fiuseppe di Iorio‘s mastery of the Italian cuisine.
NOTE: Please be mindful to wear smart casual clothing. Shorts, sleeveless shirts, and sandals are not permitted for gentlemen for example.
AROMA Bistro. Served by the same head chef at Aroma Restaurant, guests can have a more informal dining experience at this adjacent spot. Expect faster serving and laid-back meals of flavorful classics. I highly recommend their Tiramisu AROMA that features Guanaja 70% chocolate!
American Bar. With chaises longues and small lounges, it is the ideal place for a relaxing break or a quick lunch, a glass of champagne or the finest Italian wine with views of the open Roman sky.
» SERVICE «
24HR Reception. Palazzo Manfredi puts utmost importance to its guests so you can expect 5-star service from its concierge to satisfy your every need during your stay. With their level of hospitality, you’ll surely regard the hotel as your Roman ‘home away from home’. In fact, I was particularly fond of their “pillow service” wherein I was given a selection of pillows to choose from: anti-allergy, ortho-cervical memory foam, latex contour pillows, and more!
Massages. The hotel actually offers a range of massage services (from the east to the west) as they partnered up with one of Rome’s most famous wellness centres. Feel free to inquire with the reception about this service.
Gym. For those who don’t want to skip on their fitness goals, there is a mini gym at Palazzo Manfredi. In fact, every suite even has its own equipment. In case you want a personal trainer, the staff offers it too!
Luxury Car Rentals. Want the finest Italian or internationally-branded cars to use during your stay? A luxury transfer to and from the airport? The concierge can arrange it all for you!
Personal Shopper. Rome holds a lot of high fashion brands, so if you want assistance in visiting the most famous boutiques or if you want a private appointment, the hotels personal shoppers got you covered!
