We love Rocco Forte hotels, and stayed at the beautiful Hotel de la Ville in Rome years ago, so were eager to visit Hotel de Russie this summer.
A true centrepiece in the Eternal City and a true Roman luminary between Piazza del Popolo and the Spanish Steps, the classical and cosmopolitan come together at Hotel de Russie, from its stunning mediterranean Secret Garden, with rose bushes, orange trees, and mature pine trees, a small waterfall, to the historic yet modern interiors, its no secret why Hotel de Russie was dubbed “paradise on earth” by French poet Jean Cocteau in 1917, and the accolade still stands today.
ACCOMMODATION:
Hotel de Russie offers a variety of accommodation you can choose from during your stay, ranging from Classic Rooms, Superior & Deluxe Rooms with Garden View, Junior Suites, Special Suites, & Forte Suites, offering views of the Secret Garden, or historic Via del Babuino – each offering a relaxing respite after a busy day exploring the Eternal City. Each accommodation offers an elegant space with natural light, deluxe Italian marble bathroom, outfitted with their exclusive range of Irene Forte Skincare products.
RESTAURANTS & BARS:
LE JARDIN:
Located in the beautiful secret garden, Le Garden offers stylish Italian cuisine in sublime surrounds in Rome. Famed for its exemplary Italian cuisine, the colourful and fragrant dishes have been inspired by the Mediterranean ingredients of the region and are overseen by Chef Fulvio Pierangelini.
The à la carte menu showcases a tantalising array of local dishes, including Tonnarelli Cacio e Pepe, Spaghetti with fresh tomato and basil, and Lamb “scottadito” with wild chicory. Open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
STRAVINSKIJ BAR:
An award-winning oasis located in a private piazza, at the foot of Hotel de Russia’s Secret Garden and a favourite Roman meeting point. Sip exotic drinks in one of the most exclusive modern gathering places. Paying homage to Stravinskij, world-leading master mixologist Salvatore Calabrese has created a menu of 11 signature cocktails.
The perfect spot for any time throughout the day or evening for drinks and fine Italian cuisine, as envisioned by Chef Fulvio Pierangelini, with the classic Italian aperitivo being a particular highlight.
