The property
Housed in a historic 17th-century building adorned with the emblem of the Barberini bees, a symbol of the powerful Roman family, Hotel Santa Prassede provides a welcoming retreat in the heart of Rome. The property is situated atop the Esquilino Hill, just a short stroll from the beautiful Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, in the charming Monti neighborhood. This picturesque area, rich in character, allows easy access to iconic sites such as the Colosseum, the Imperial Fora, and Termini Station.
The building, featuring warm colors typical of Roman tradition, overlooks the church of Santa Prassede, a small hidden gem that lends its name to the distinctive cobblestone street. The hotel blends attention to detail with artisanal furnishings and vintage touches, creating an intimate and authentic atmosphere. Each room, uniquely styled, offers modern comforts such as private bathrooms with new showers, air conditioning, smart TVs, high-speed Wi-Fi, and mattresses with toppers.
Daily housekeeping is performed meticulously, including linen changes and replenishment of amenities. To ensure maximum hygiene, blankets have been replaced with freshly laundered top sheets for every change. The hotel offers ground-floor rooms for those needing more accessibility, and the staff is always on hand to assist with luggage, as the building lacks an elevator.
Hotel Santa Prassede provides convenient additional services, such as free luggage storage and the option for early or late check-in upon request. The lobby serves as a cozy space where guests can work or unwind, taking advantage of the complimentary Wi-Fi and coffee station. Breakfast, provided by the historic Bar Cottini nearby, allows guests to experience the authentic atmosphere of an Italian café, with options ranging from traditional Italian breakfasts to American fare.
Whether you are in Rome to explore its historical treasures or to immerse yourself in the city's daily life, Hotel Santa Prassede offers an authentic and comfortable stay, combining timeless elegance with attentive and warm hospitality.
