With so many standout ultra-high-end hotels in Rome, it’s hard to find one that truly stops you in your tracks. Romeo Roma is one of those, with extraordinary design by Zaha Hadid that expertly blends the ancient history of Rome with futuristic charm. Glossy ebony accents, pops of scarlet red, and dynamic lines and waves are combined with pillars, arches, and 17th-century frescoes.
You’ll be in A-list company here and experience a level of privacy that is unrivaled, with security at the door ensuring only guests booked into the hotel can enter. Despite this level of exclusivity, kids of all ages will feel right at home once they step inside the meticulously restored 16th-century palazzo. There’s a playroom on the ground floor housing handmade toys and games tables, as well as indoor and outdoor pools, and, quite incredibly, a private archaeological area that anyone can explore, uncovered during the hotel’s construction.
If space is a must for your family, you’ll all adore the multistory duplexes and suites, and kids stay free in most rooms, too. Of course, the food across the four in-house restaurants is excellent, albeit with fairly adult fare, but kids’ menus are available upon request, as are cribs.
