Marcella Royal
Rome, Roma

In the very heart of the most elegant area of Rome the Marcella Royal offers its renown hospitality at a short distance from Via Veneto which owes its fame to the Dolce Vita that witnessed the birth of this "boutique hotel". With its tasteful setting and details, the Marcella Royal offers its clientele 85 personalised rooms equipped with every comfort to ensure a unique sense of relaxation. The real pride of the Marcella Royal is its roof garden where you can enjoy a 360° view over the Eternal City, from the Orti Sallustiani on Monte Mario, St. Peter's Dome in the Vatican, to the Castelli romani area. Here the breakfast -on the house- truly makes the difference, as you sit comfortably in the Panorama room, or, during the warm season, immerged in the green of the innumerable plants that decorate the large, over 400 square-meter terrace that is also used as a solarium, every night piano bar.

Rome is the largest comune in Italy and it is also one of the largest European capital cities in land area, with an area of 1,285 square kilometers. The comune territory extends up to the Tyrrhenian Sea, with the district of Ostia, on the south-west, located on the shore. Within the city limits, the population is about 2.5 million; almost 3.8 million live in the urbanised area of Rome, as represented by the province of Rome, making it second in population to Milan. The current Mayor of Rome is Walter Veltroni. In Roman mythology, Rome was built on April 21, 753 BC by the twin descendants of the Trojan prince Aeneas, Romulus and Remus. Romulus killed Remus in a quarrel over where their city was to be located and became the first of seven Kings of Rome, as well as the source of the city's name. Central Rome is dominated by the traditional seven hills that hark back to the Latin founding myth of the city. These seven hills are the Quirinal, Viminal, Esquiline, Caelian, Aventine, Capitoline, and Palatine Hills. The Tiber River and its islands are an important additional component of the city, flowing south through the western portion of the central zone.
