Roma, Roma, Roma. The Eternal City, a jewel shined to perfection where history and luxury are endlessly intertwined. A new hotel emerges, a touch of decadence envisaged by designer Rodolphe Parente featuring 82 rooms overlooking Via Veneto.

A tribute to Rome, an invitation to experience the city with intensity. A veritable gem to discover, an elegant, joyful, and cinematic hotel made for wandering, exploring, and falling in love. Experimental Roma is a new hotel steeped in history, erected on the legendary Via Veneto. A nod to the Eternal City, a space in equal measures – intimate yet spectacular, clandestine yet theatrical. Led by interior architect Rodolphe Parente, his vision draws from the fertile contrasts that define Rome’s grandeur: beauty and decay, sacred art and profane celebration, heritage and modernity.

Home to 82 bedrooms and suites, a restaurant by chef Giovanni Passerini, a breathtaking rooftop bar and suspended swimming pool overlooking the city’s skyline, Experimental Roma captures the spirit of La Dolce Vita in a contemporary rhythm.

Experimental Roma is not just a place to stay, rather an architectural and sensory narrative, a cinematic setting where every guest becomes a character.

A hotel comes to life

A love letter to Rome, penned by Rodolphe Parente. Through our doors, a nod to La Dolce Vita when moments paused over paparazzi chasing stars and Alfa Romeos cruised down winding streets. A poetic tale of contrasts, carefully weaving intimacy, splendour, heritage and modernity in equal parts across 82 bedrooms and suites, a restaurant, cocktail bar, spa and of course, the audacious rooftop pool suspended over the city of Rome, constantly pulsating below.

Orange building facade with symmetrical windows and dark shutters under clear sky.

Discover Roma

Set within a former bank, the building stands on the legendary Via Veneto, cradle of Fellini’s La Dolce Vita and a stage of Italy’s golden age of glamour. Here once walked Anita Ekberg, Marcello Mastroianni, the paparazzi, and the lovers of a dazzling, decadent Rome. Winding roads unveil a veritable air of elegance and history, only moments away from the Spanish Steps, Villa Borghese and Trevi Fountain. An iconic neighbourhood, a treasure trove of Roman gems beckon around every corner waiting to be discovered.

Today, Experimental Roma revives the spirit of that bygone world with elegance, audacity, and grace.
