Why choose Parco dei Principi? The answer is a smile. Just watch us when you arrive or when we accompany you to your room and perhaps brush up your wardrobe, or again in the evening while we serve you our menu, recommended by the best gourmet guides. Look at us, we're smiling. It's simple and the pleasure is twofold, having you as our guests and spending every day at one of the finest hotels in Rome. We are the first to tell you so, we who live in this city: the Parco dei Principi is a realm of absolute peace and elegance, in one of the capital's most exclusive quarters, Parioli. A paradise, and to discover it all you need to do is enter the gilded silence of one of our rooms, or go down to the garden for a cocktail, or plunge into the cool water of our pool. All around you, a halo of well-being and culture.
Just a few steps and you're already in the gardens of Villa Borghese and admiring the masterpieces of its art collection. They're all there, Raphael, Rubens, Titian, Bernini and of course Canova and his beautiful Pauline Borghese, after whom our restaurant is named. You want to go further afield? Another minute and you are already in the centre of Rome, Via Veneto, Piazza di Spagna, Via Condotti for refined shopping and then Trastevere with its bracing air. A moment and the day has flown by. An instant and, like the princes of the past, you are already back in your palace.
Appointment with the beauty of Rome. Only two minutes' walk from our hotel and you are in the park of Villa Borghese. A few paces more and you come to Via Veneto and the marvel of Trinità dei Monti, then Piazza di Spagna, the Colosseum and the splendour of St Peter's. But at sunset nothing is more breathtaking than a terrace at the Parco dei Principi.
Warmth, courtesy, friendliness and discretion: these qualities are essential for our staff, as well as professional expertise. To be ever ready and attentive, willing to do our utmost to create for our guests an atmosphere which is friendly but efficient, becomes a way of life because of the care and effort we put into our work. From the Reception to Room Service we will see that every wish is fulfilled, every command obeyed. The terraces of the Parco dei Principi offer one of the most thrilling panoramas of the gardens of Villa Borghese and the city of Rome. Anyone who wants to go higher will have to take a balloon.
Meetings A banquet for 500 people, a cocktail party for 700, a conference for 900 guests? If those are your numbers, these are some of our solutions. For the style, read the names: Sala Farnese, Sala Orsini, and so on for the 1500 square metres of our Congress Centre.
Rooms This is what life is like in one of our Junior Suites: the height of elegance. And if you do want to go out, the best addresses of our city for you. Exclusive inside and out. The décor of our rooms is a tribute to the past. As for technology, from ISDN lines to Wireless Internet Access, we look only to the future.
Relax Immersion in history and the delight of a bath among the clouds.
Suites The beauty of luxury. Just as in ancient Rome, so it is every day in the splendour of our suites, only a whisker from the sky.
The Swimming Pool A corner of tranquillity for you and your family. And in the shade of the trees, in the privacy of an elegant gazebo, allow yourself the luxury of a long massage.
Fitness & Beauty Farm Only at the Parco dei Principi can you enjoy the peace of a private resort. At your disposal, a magnificent Olympic swimming pool, an up-to-date gym and a fitness centre.

Special Brunch on Sundays and Barbecue Service at the Restaurant "La Veranda", from May to September (Garden Area).
In reality the question is another, and perhaps more personal one: "what is it you love in life?" We think there are many things. Art of course, and so you will know how to recognize the beauty of the past as well as its extraordinary relevance to the present day. Just take a stroll through the ruins of the Imperial Fora and the rooms of the Capitoline Museums and all at once there you are in front of three breathtaking Caravaggios. But that's not all. You also love the intimacy and balm of a morning on the banks of the Tiber, when the whole city is mirrored in its calm waters.We can assure you, you'll never have seen the dome of St Peter's like that, upside down and floating. And then, naturally, if as citizens of the world you appreciate the vitality of contrasts, pay a visit to Borromini's masterpiece Sant'Ivo della Sapienza, a touch of white at the heart of a colourful city. Take a break, time is on your side: coffee with cream and a hint of chocolate, the famous "Monachella", seated at the tables of the Grancaffè di Sant'Eustachio. Right on the corner of Sant'Ivo, it was one of Stendhal's favourite haunts. Refreshed, you can relax among the antique stores and handicraft shops of Via dei Coronari and Campo dei Fiori. Last rays of the sun? Try picking them out from the mosaics of Santa Maria in Trastevere. The stars have come out? One last delight, a concert amidst the columns of the Portico d'Ottavia. And now you tell us, why not choose Rome?
