![]() The Elegant Grand Hotel Parco Dei Principi - Rome
Don't Even Consider Staying Anywhere Else!
©2005 Bonnie Neely, Photos by Bill Neely
![]() Save your money and treat yourself to an indescribably wonderful Roman holiday (or business stay) in a very special hotel. Discover the extreme elegance of the five-star-luxury Grand Hotel Parco dei Principi Roma, a member of Great Hotels of the World. We highly recommend a splurge here for anyone who visits this Imperial City.
![]() In our junior suite on the top floor, our private balcony overlooked the lush, green trees and brilliant flowers of Borghese Park, where some of the most elegant sites in Rome are located. We could see the dome of St. Peter's Basilica from our balcony!
![]() ![]() Our room at Grand Hotel Parco dei Principi felt like an exquisite home instead of a hotel. With soft green carpet with pink flowers, fine silky, pale lime drapes, muted green paneled walls with gilded wood frames and raised motif decoration, it was luxurious in every detal. The rich, solid doors were finely created with framed panels featuring three different woods, and the antique king bed was of the same three woods. Other antique furnishings included a pretty pink love seat, marble coffee table, and many ornate porcelain lamps.
![]() Our huge marble bathroom with a giant tub and double marble sinks was also absolutely gorgeous! White monogrammed robes and bedroom shoes were wrapped in cellophane waiting for us to relax. The sheets on our bed were crisp, ironed linen. Our balcony faced the former residence of the President of Italy! The neighborhood is very posh with large private homes and distinguished shops, obviously one of the best area of Rome, overlooking Borghese Park. For easy transportation there is a small trolley that comes to this area from the Vatican and town center.
![]() At Grand Hotel Parco dei Principi breakfast (included with your room) is in an elaborate dining room, with fresh flowers and crisp white tablecloths on each table. We enjoyed many selections from the full breakfast buffet: eggs, bacon, many breads & cheeses, fruit, yogurt, cereal, juices etc. At night we dressed for dinner. First we had drinks in the bright bar and enjoyed relaxing with live piano music in the beautifully-appointed lobby, which feels like a palatial drawing room. ![]() Afterwards, we moved to the Paulina Borghese, another of the Grand Hotel Parco dei Principi's restaurants, where on any night you will see international dignitaries or stars. Round tables were set with starched white cloths, lovely pink and yellow mums interspersed with bay leaves and baby's breath, and candles. The menu is elegant and exotic. While we were making our selections the waiter brought complimentary champagne and delicious hors d'oeuvres made by the chef.
After hearty soup and a crisp, fresh salad big enough to share, Bill selected pork tenderloin, grilled and stuffed with goat cheese, with a delicious sauce. I had to try deer meat in fruit sauce, succulent and excellent, accompanied by fresh spinach and broccoli sauteed in olive oil... the best we ever tasted! For dessert we selected an amoretta and orange cake, followed by rich, aromatic coffee.
![]() Compared to other fine dining establishments throughout the city, the Borghese Restaurant at Grand Hotel Parco dei Principi is very reasonably priced, and the food is fabulous. With the logo of the elegant reclining nude lady, this restaurant is named for Napoleon Bonaparte's sister, who created a scandal by posing for this famous sculpture. The original is in the Borghese Museum Gallery. She later married the Borghese heir.
You too can experience what it feels like to be a member of Italian Royalty at this lovely hotel.
