Best Spas in Italy

"Via Alberto Cadlolo, 101 (Monte Mario) Daily 7am-10pm 06.35091romecavalieri.com. To get an idea of the type of spa we are talking about here – it was once voted Europe’s Best Hotel Spa. A self-proclaimed ‘Mediterranean oasis’ in the heart of Rome, but this title doesn’t capture the the grandeur of the Cavalieri Grand Spa Club."

"One of Rome’s most prestigious hotels, the Hassler celebrated its 125th birthday in 2018. Guests book here for the magical views of the city from the top of the Spanish Steps, for the sophisticated style of the suites and for the impeccable service, which is surprisingly warm for a five-star hotel. The facilities are first rate and include the Rossano Ferretti Hair Salon, the Amorvero Spa, the Michelin-starred Imàgi restaurant and the elegant Hassler bar – where, it is said, Princess Diana described their house bellini as the best ever."

"Hassler Roma, or Rome’s Stairway to Heaven, as the legendary hotel is popularly known, is located at the top of the Spanish Steps in the heart of Rome and has been serving its clientele for the past 125 years. The hotel overlooks one of the city’s most famous squares, Piazza di Spagna, and offers guests a central, five-star hub for all their adventures in and around Rome. A total of 87 luxe rooms is available with only the best amenities, along with a sauna, fitness centre, and a Michelin-starred restaurant."

"This hotel has been designed with a modern exterior, however the interiors have been decked up in neoclassical leanings. The hotel features all modern amenities, however it’s designed in such a manner so that the modern aesthetics don’t encroach upon the classical grandeur of the rooms and suites. The hotel is also lavished with antique sculptures and paintings so that you can experience a little slice of Rome within the hotel itself!"

"Via G. Frescobaldi, 3 (Pinciano) Mon-Sun 7am – 10pm 06.85442494princespa.com. Not far from the Villa Borghese and inside the sumptuous Parco dei Principi Grand Hotel & Spa, is the Prince Spa. And you will feel like royalty after experiencing this award-winning wellness centre."

"Piazza Rondanini, 30 (Pantheon) Mon – Fri 9am – 7.30pm, Sat 10am – 7pm 06.69380479bahrcityspa.it. If you’ve been walking all day and need to recharge your batteries, BAHR is the place to go. Walk along BAHR’s corridor and enter their last room to discover a whole new world of beauty and relaxation."

"Insider tip: famous amongst Roman students, this all night bakery is a compulsory stop after a night out. Their croissants are top notch, freshly baked and really cheap, I would especially recommend the cream filling. The bakery is in the basement, so you have to walk down some stairs to enter."

"Hotel Hassler’s Imàgo offers yet another spectacular view of Rome as it is located at the top of the Spanish Steps, on the top floor of the hotel. Chef Andrea Antonini’s cooking follows a dynamic philosophy that expresses itself through unique dishes. The restaurant’s Michelin one-starred cuisine is centered around Italian dishes, honoring tradition and the seasonality but proposed in a contemporary vision."

"The Michelin starrer Imago is perched on the 6th floor of a fantastic five star hotel (Hassler). It’s situated on the top of the Spanish steps right at the belly of Centro storico, so location wise things couldn’t have been more perfect. The tables are beautifully spaced out and offer privacy as well as an intimate feel."

"A Michelin-starred restaurant in the heart of the Eternal City. On the sixth floor of the Hotel Hassler, there's a panoramic view for lovers of all ages. In Imàgo's kitchen there is a new chef, Andrea Antonini."

"Parco Scuola del Traffico is a park where kids can drive ‘cars’ throughout the driving courses. Kids over 12 can ride ‘motorcycles’ too. They need to navigate through all the normal traffic signage and follow the road rules."

"In the late spring and summer there are expanses of bright fuchsia bougainvillea hedges growing on ancient walls. If you are traveling with kids there is small playground next to the ruins of ruins of the ancient baths of Trajan and there is often a afternoon pick-up soccer game next to the Fascist era fountain decorated with copies of amphorae. This park is also where you can find Nero’s golden house the Domus Aurea."

"If you want to visit the Colosseum with kids, you can reward them with a visit to the Parco del Colle Oppio playground. The entrance to this little park is just across the street to the North East of the Colosseum. It’s a great place to let the kids run around or to sit down for lunch and rest your feet."
