Palazzo Ripetta

Embracing the glamour and style of the 1920s, Palazzo Ripetta is Rome’s latest hotel icon. The independent property brings a sophisticated and retro vibe to the Eternal City. Located in a 17th-century palace that was once a convent and subsequently renovated over the years, Palazzo Ripetta leans in on its early-20th-century art deco incarnation with beautifully restored ornamental details, such as curved moldings and inlaid panels, and period design pieces.

The luxury hotel is an urban respite. Rome residents and other visitors come to Piazzetta Ripetta,its open courtyard, and Etere, the rooftop terrace bar. The art deco look is complemented by the owner’s personal collection of contemporary art, creating a de facto gallery effect throughout the public areas. The 78 rooms, including 27 suites, are tastefully styled with light tones and rich accents, giving them an overall calming aesthetic.

Palazzo Ripetta’s location is one of the best in Rome. Situated on Via di Ripetta, one of three main streets in the historic center’s Tridente neighborhood, the hotel is within walking distance to cultural sites like the Ara Pacis, Trevi Fountain and Pantheon, as well as Villa Borghese park and Vatican City. It’s also surrounded by the city’s top boutiques and incredible restaurants.
