Just a short stroll from the iconic Piazza di Spagna and Trevi Fountain lies Palazzo Talìa, an exquisite hotel with a fascinating past and equally intoxicating future. Named for the Muse of Comedy, the palace has been a breeding ground for art and culture since the sixteenth century, with nymphs and deities believed to have frequented the spot since Roman times. Light plays an important role at Palazzo Talìa, dancing across the earthy tones and natural finishes of the luxurious interior throughout the day. The boutique’s décor has been carefully selected to represent the understated elegance of Rome’s most beautiful historic buildings, with premium finishes and materials - think marble, precious woods, mouth-blown mirrors and handcrafted maiolica tiles. Each room and suite is individually decorated, with four poster beds, velvet upholstery and parquet flooring, offset with cutting edge tech - for ultimate comfort. Take a relaxing sojourn to the spa, complete with experiential swimming pool, sauna, Turkish bath and fitness room. In the evening, head to the hotel’s jaw-dropping bar for a perfectly mixed cocktail or champagne tasting, surrounded by golden tones and frescos dating from the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries. The adjoining Tramae restaurant puts local produce front and centre in an elegant yet relaxed menu. Beautifully landscaped with planting and its own nymphaeum, take a seat out on the courtyard and patio for a truly Italian experience.
