Perched majestically above Rome’s iconic Spanish Steps, Hotel Hassler Roma celebrates 125 years as a beacon of luxury hospitality. In honor of this milestone, the legendary hotel has unveiled a sophisticated renovation blending timeless elegance with modern flair.
Still under the stewardship of Roberto E. Wirth, a fifth-generation hotelier from the distinguished Swiss Wirth family, this five-star address remains a preferred sanctuary for global luminaries and discerning travelers since 1893. Esteemed guests such as Charlie Chaplin, George Clooney, and Audrey Hepburn have graced its storied halls.
In its 125th year, Hotel Hassler Roma demonstrates its commitment to excellence by reimagining select public spaces, guest rooms, and suites. The property has strategically reduced its overall room count to create more expansive, luxurious suites, ensuring privacy and exclusivity for its clientele.
After a brief, three-week closure, the hotel reopened its doors on January 29, showcasing enhancements meticulously directed by Roberto Wirth. These upgrades incorporate both aesthetic and functional improvements, ensuring the legacy of the Hassler endures for future generations.
Key highlights include a redesigned main entrance, now featuring a custom-crafted fanlight that bathes the grand foyer in natural sunlight, and state-of-the-art automatic doors for seamless arrival experiences.
The lobby radiates Italian sophistication with new Botticino marble flooring and sumptuous wall coverings. Reception and concierge areas have been refreshed with rich brown hues accented by glimmering gold leaf motifs, setting a refined tone upon entry.
The San Pietro Presidential Suite has been thoughtfully updated, blending contemporary comforts with its signature classic style. The Salone Eva and Sala Vietri event spaces also shine with updated mirrors, bespoke lighting, and new upholstery, perfect for both intimate gatherings and grand celebrations.
Meanwhile, the renowned Michelin-starred Imàgo restaurant, the lush Palm Court, and the legendary Hassler Bar continue to offer their acclaimed culinary and cocktail experiences, unchanged in quality and atmosphere.
