This photo was taken from the terrace of the Hassler in Rome. Not only is it one of the best-run hotels in Rome, it also has the enviable position to sit at the top of the Spanish Steps and look out over the city. For a less expensive option, the Hassler also has Il Palazetto, with four lovely rooms right on the steps that can access all of the amenities of the Hassler half a block away. And, if you really want a personal, special Rome, come to Lisa Lindblad or Willing Foot and we will put you in touch with the absolute best guides in the city. These brothers – twins they are – produce magic in a magical city.
Villa Nocetta, a new, exclusive-use property in the center of Rome, is a wonderful addition to the hotel scene in this city. How many times have I planned summer Roman stays for families and wavered over my choice of a hotel. Rome can be hot and uncomfortable in the summer, yet it is, in my view, one of the most fascinating cities in the world. We make magic in Rome for our travelers but we realize that, even with extraordinary access to rich cultural adventures, the day should end in a swimming pool and the cooling green of a garden.
This is where Villa Nocetta comes in. A six suite private villa surrounded by its own gardens and overlooking the parklands of the Villa Doria Pamphili, it has a gorgeous pool, pretty rooms, delicious food and good service.
