In the presence of the Coliseum
Roma (RM)

Magazine: February 2008
To stay in the Hotel Forum in Rome, placed in the most ancient area of the eternal city facing the Coliseum, is a veritable privilege. It is the history that one treads on in of what was once a Dominican convent that makes this location so unique: the omnipresent atmosphere of the ancient gladiator battles that still reverberate, the richness of the decorative details, the kindness of the personnel, the three hills of Rome glimpsed from the terrace of the restaurant… and the affection that seeps into the tales told by the staff. The location does the rest: a historic and elegant XVII century palazzo next to the church of San Quirico. Boiserie, velvets and Persian carpets add up to a sublime elegance. A retro fl avour in the wall coverings with art deco touches plus, rooms situated in the ancients cells of past priests. From the windows… gorgeous, enviable views.
