Rome's Casa Monti has been created as a contemporary interpretation of how Ancient Roman patricians might have lived today if history had taken a different path.

Inside these walls, you can imagine yourself as part of the upper class of Roman society and celebrate life with an abundance of colors, mouthwatering food, and Italian wine.

The five-star hotel spans six floors in the oldest district of Rome, and it's located in a historic noble palace. The nineteenth-century building, with its facade classified as a monument, is among uneven cobblestones, antique shops, art galleries, and old bookshops in Rome's Monti district.
