Grand Revival
The Corinthia Rome represents a significant addition to the luxury hospitality scene in Italy's capital, meticulously crafted within the walls of a historic
Bank of Italy edifice from the early 1900s. The renovation, spanning four years and overseen by the London-based design firm GA Design, has masterfully blended the building's original architectural grandeur with contemporary elegance. With an impressive array of over a dozen types of marble adorning its bathrooms alone, the commitment to opulence is evident throughout. This prestigious property not only offers a lavish retreat but also provides guests with privileged access to some of Rome's lesser-known historical treasures, enhancing the guest experience with exclusive cultural insights and discoveries.
Elegant Suites
The hotel boasts 60 guest rooms and suites, each designed with a serene palette of white and steel blue, complemented by sumptuously soft Frette linens and bathrobes. Guests will appreciate the convenience of custom-designed minibars and Lavazza espresso machines. The bathrooms are a particular highlight, clad in delicate pale green Brescia marble and furnished with exclusive toiletries from the renowned Florentine brand, Officina Profumo-Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella. The Superior Suites offer a welcoming selection of books, providing a perfect opportunity to unwind on plush sofas while delving into Rome’s hidden narratives. Accommodations begin at approximately 280 square feet, with over 20 opulent suites available, including four with private terraces. The pinnacle is the Theodoli Heritage Suite, situated in the former boardroom, which preserves early 20th-century frescoes, stained glass windows, mosaic floors, and coffered ceilings, complete with original glass lamps and a magnificent onyx bathroom, offering a truly regal experience.
Culinary Excellence
The dining establishments at Corinthia Rome are under the expert direction of celebrated Milanese chef Carlo Cracco, the force behind the Michelin-starred Cracco in Galleria. Breakfast features freshly prepared pastries delivered directly to the table, alongside an à la carte menu that includes Cracco’s signature low-temperature poached egg, elegantly served with Parmigiano cream and guanciale. The more casual Piazzetta restaurant provides an all-day dining experience in a tranquil outdoor courtyard, offering a menu that spans international favorites and local specialties such as Roman-style artichokes and aged bistecca Fiorentina, accompanied by roasted potatoes and sautéed chicory. For an elevated dining affair, Viride offers an exquisite setting with parquet floors, emerald velvet seating, and Murano glass chandeliers, where guests can choose from an à la carte selection or indulge in a ten-course tasting menu. The extensive wine list is a tome in itself, featuring premium selections from legendary Italian vineyards. Evenings can begin with an aperitivo at Bar Ocra, a sophisticated lounge with plush seating and a gilded ceiling, or guests can arrange for a mobile bar cart to be delivered directly to their suite for a private cocktail experience.
Tranquil Spa Sanctuary
Nestled within the former bank's secure vault, the Corinthia Spa offers a sanctuary of calm, adorned with beautiful mosaic floors and a striking art installation inspired by laurel leaves. The wet area is an ideal space for relaxation, featuring a Finnish sauna, a steam room, an ice fountain, and two refreshing plunge pools, perfect for unwinding after exploring the city. The spa provides three treatment rooms where guests can enjoy massages and facials utilizing premium products from Seed to Skin and 111Skin. Complementing the spa's serenity, a 24-hour gym is equipped with state-of-the-art Technogym equipment and free weights for those who wish to maintain their fitness routine.
