Scheduled for May 2021192 RoomsHotel website
After a particularly challenging year for the travel industry, The Hoxton eagerly awaits brighter days ahead and will open its doors in Rome in the spring. Coming as the 10th hotel for the brand, The Hoxton Rome will boast 192 bedrooms, a large coffee bar and takeaway counter, a light-flooded restaurant, and a beautiful outdoor terrace perfect for lapping up that Italian sunshine.
Located in the tip of the Parioli neighbourhood, The Hoxton, Rome has some of the city's most beautiful parks and best neighbourhoods on its doorstep. Leafy Villa Borghese is in easy walking distance for guests to explore, as is the Coppede district, a charming area peppered with Art Nouveau buildings. Parioli itself is an upmarket neighbourhood, full of local trattorias and artsy boutiques, and the MACRO (Museum of Contemporary Art) and MAXXI (National Museum of 21st Century Art) for art buffs to make a beeline for.
Ennismore Design Studio have impressively transformed the '70s building into a Hoxton, collaborating with Fettle Design for the public spaces, taking cues from the building's original details and the rich architecture of the Eternal City. As with all Hoxton hotels, the ground floor will be a destination for locals and travellers alike. Coming as something new for Rome as a place where guests are encouraged to sit and stay a while, this will comprise a large open lobby laden with statement vintage seating and set around a central fireplace; a sleek all-day diner with a farm-to-table ethos; sweeping coffee bar and shaded outdoor terrace.
The hotel's 192 bedrooms draw references from the nostalgic interiors of classic Italian cinema, for which Rome is celebrated. These will feature rustic parquet floors, lacquered timbers and local stones, whilst the brightly coloured bathrooms nod to mid-century Italian design. Each room will feature rich timber wall panelling, a bespoke statement headboard and an eclectic mix of furniture. Some of the larger feature striking Murano glass chandeliers reclaimed from the building.
L'Appartamento, set in the lower ground floor, is a dedicated meeting and events space with five rooms of varying size. Centred around a communal pantry kitchen, each room features timber floors, bold statement rugs, and vintage Italian accents. This unique and multi-functional space is one that's at the core of every Hoxton, perfect for intimate dining, events and parties when socialising returns once more!
