Palazzo Manfredi

Among one of the most spectacular sights you can see in your lifetime is the sunrise over the ancient Colosseum of Rome. Counted as one of the seven wonders of the world, this awesome piece of architecture was built in 72 AD when the Roman Empire stretched over vast swathes of the world, entertaining up to 50,000 spectators during its notorious gladiator battles and festivals. Wake up to incredible views of the Colosseum everyday at the Palazzo Manfredi, a perfectly positioned boutique hotel overlooking the Roman wonder. Honeymooners with a passion for art, history and culture will find the luxury hotel the optimum place to explore all the Eternal City has to offer.  Newlyweds can choose from three rooms, Prestige, Executive and Master, all decorated handsomely with warm colour palettes, statement wallpaper, and luxurious finishes from parquet to marble to velvet.

Or opt to live in the style of the Ancient Emperors by choosing one of Palazzo Manfredi's decadent suites, which all offer much larger living space. For those planning a longer sojourn, the portfolio of apartments may be a more apt choice.  Dine on the freshest ingredients at Palazzo Manfredi's in-house restaurant Aroma. Whether it’s a light breakfast on the rooftop terrace before a day of sightseeing, or an intimate dinner with the glittering stars and moons for company, honeymooners will sample the very best of Italian cuisine prepared by the restaurant's skilled chefs.  Enjoy an evening at the splendid Lounge Bar, which opens onto the Palazzo Manfredi’s superb terrace. This breathtakingly romantic setting, with its comfortable chaises longues and small lounges, is the ideal place for sharing a celebratory bottle of champagne or fine Italian wine. All around is the sumptuous beauty of Rome, from the Oppian Hill gardens to the Imperial Fora.
