Six Senses Rome seamlessly blends history with a modern feel and unparalleled perspectives of the city.
The Stay
Six Senses Rome marks the Launch of the Brand’s First Urban Hotel in Italy, taking guests on a journey into heritage, discovery, and community within Rome’s UNESCOprotectedhistoric city center. A peaceful haven nestled in the beating heart of the Eternal City; Six Senses Rome only opened its doors in March. Housed in the historical Palazzo Salviati Cesi Mellini, this milestone marks the completed renovation of the magnificent façade of the adjacent San Marcello al Corso Church, the first sustainability project sponsored by the hotel. Throughout the hotel’s 96 guest rooms and suites, there are nods to traditional craftsmanship, all finished to perfection to achieve what feels modern yet full of history. The stunning Triclinium-style marble seating on the terraces allow for the perfect way to see the city both wake and sleep. The Palazzo housing Six Senses Rome is home to outstanding features from the monumental marble staircase with its decorative skylight to the newly restored 600-year-old columns in the main entrance. The large baptismal bath dating back to the fourth century was uncovered during archaeological excavations at the beginning of the 1900s and is now visible beneath the glass floor tiles within BIVIUM Restaurant-Café-Bar, the spot where all paths cross. If you want to feel some culture while relaxing this summer — this is the place.
The Dining
There’s no better spot for dinner than at the top of the Palazzo – head to NOTOS Rooftop for unparalleled, panoramic views of the city including San Marcello al Corso Church and the Montecitorio bell tower.
The Wellness
A modern take on the ancient art of Roman bathing, introducing the latest biohacking technology for recovery and restoration in the heart of this vibrant and bustling city. Six Senses Spa also reinterprets the themes of classicism and contact with nature, from the mosaic of Daphne’s laurel tree to the biophilic features and locally sourced and organic spa products. This haven is the perfect place to unwind after a day of sightseeing or a long flight.
