For the ultimate romantic getaway, the Residenza Napoleone III easily surpasses all one's expectations and has exactly the right credentials for an intimate weekend in luxurious surroundings. Situated in XVI century Palazzo Ruspoli on Rome’s legendary shopping street Via Condotti, the Residenza is named after Emperor Napoleon III who lived here in 1830, and since then it has been exquisitely restored to its original splendour.
Walking in through the main portal of huge wooden gates, through the colonnades, and up the magnificent marble staircase, you arrive at the wondrous Residenza that consists of three magnificent rooms, the Napoleone Suite being the most impressive with it exuding late baroque opulence at its very best. Antique furnishings, parquet floors, hand stencilled walls, and rare XVI century Gobelin tapestries in the sitting room all add to the lavish grandeur of this suite, and the sheer size of the bedroom will leave you awestruck. Out of the six huge oil paintings dotted around, one acts as a headboard for the sumptuous bed draped with beautiful fabrics and silks, and two others reveal an exquisite marble bathroom and a dressing room.
Along with the soft lighting, open fire, and impeccable service of this splendidly secluded and private apartment, you encounter an escape from the modern world. The unobtrusive butler and maid are both there to tend to your needs, as well as the infinitely stylish owner Princess Letizia Ruspoli who has stocked the apartment with everything you might need.
The overall effect is remarkably welcoming and unpretentious, but if you are after something smaller and much less grand, then a great alternative is the intimate Roof Garden Suite.
