Six Senses Rome ...Now officially open .

 It’s not easy to build in a city as deeply historical as Rome, and many hoteliers are forced to make compromises. Once you’re at the level of a Six Senses, however, it seems anything is possible. Six Senses Rome, like so many other Roman hotels, occupies a historical palace, in this case the 18th-century Palazzo Salviati Cesi Mellini, a former cardinal’s residence whose exteriors and architecture have been meticulously restored and preserved.

Inside, however, the sky was apparently the limit for designer Patricia Urquiola; this, like any Six Senses, is as thoroughly modern a luxury hotel as you’ll find anywhere in the world. The rooms pay tribute to Rome’s history but feel more directly inspired by contemporary Italian luxury design, and while they start out at a relatively compact 28 square meters, the top-tier suites are vast — and at all levels they’re as comfortable as can be.

The spa, naturally, is a lavish one, a Roman bath to end all Roman baths. The restaurants, too, are thoughtfully crafted, from the rooftop terrace at NOTOS to the all-day, ultra-sustainable BIVIUM, whose modern Roman-Sicilian menu is half plant-based and all locally sourced

The interior design of Six Senses Rome was done by the Italian architect Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel. Antonio Citterio is a world-renowned architect and designer who has won many awards for his work in architecture, interior design, and product design.

The design of Six Senses Rome is inspired by the rich cultural heritage and history of the city, showcasing a modern interpretation of classic Roman architecture. The interiors are designed with a mix of traditional and contemporary elements, creating a harmonious balance between old and new.

The rooms and suites feature a neutral color palette with warm tones, and the use of natural materials like wood, stone, and leather further enhances the hotel's luxurious yet understated ambiance. The attention to detail is evident in the curated art and eclectic furnishings, which add to the overall ambiance of the Six Senses Rome.

Six Senses Rome is a hotel situated in the heart of Rome which has been developed by the international hospitality brand Six Senses. The project has been developed in collaboration with the prominent hotel operator, InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG). IHG is the parent company of Six Senses, which is known for its luxury hotels and resorts in some of the most sought-after destinations in the world.


The property was originally built as a 19th-century palazzo, which has been carefully restored and renovated while preserving the historical charm and authenticity of the building. The Six Senses Rome offers its guests a luxurious and immersive experience, providing a modern interpretation of classic Roman hospitality in an unparalleled historical setting.
