The Inn at the Roman Forum in Roma, open JuneNovember.

Located on Via degli Ibernesi in Rome's historic center, The Inn at the Roman Forum sits steps from the ancient ruins that shaped Western civilization, with views of terracotta rooftops and iconic monuments rising above the surrounding streets.

This 4-star hotel occupies a restored Renaissance palazzo, offering guests a front-row perspective of Rome's layers of history compressed into a single neighborhood.

Stone archways, cobblestone streets, and the constant presence of 2,000-year-old structures create an atmosphere where your celebration unfolds against genuine archaeological heritage.

We were impressed from the moment we arrived at the hotel. The Inn at the Roman Forum exceeded our expectations on every level. We booked the Junior Suite and it was roomy and had everything we needed for a 7 night stay. The bed was comfortable, the sitting area couch was comfy and a nice place to put your feet up after a long day of walking. Each morning we had a lovely breakfast with several options, including gluten free for me. I have Celiac disease and one evening I was accidently glutened at a local restaurant and became quite sick. The hotel staff made sure I had extra waters, towels, and gluten free crackers to help me recover. The next day they checked in with me to see how I was feeling and offer additional help if it was needed. This was so appreciated because being so sick away from home can be hard. I loved being able to open our rooms windows during the day and let fresh air in. Such a beautiful setting, and I would happily stay at this hotel again. Each staff member went above and beyond.
