Why Rome for a Ultra-Luxury trip
Rome's rarest rooms sit on the top floors of historic palazzi: suites with wraparound terraces, private hot tubs and uninterrupted views of St. Peter's dome and a skyline of domes and pines. Original frescoes, antiques and personal butlers are standard, and the best concierges can arrange early private entry to the Vatican Museums or archaeologist-led visits to excavations rarely open to the public. Only a few such suites exist in the city, which keeps them in short supply.
Rome offers a kind of luxury no other capital can match: waking up a few streets from the Pantheon, the Spanish Steps or the Roman Forum, with two thousand years of history visible from a rooftop terrace. The best hotels occupy restored palazzi with frescoed ceilings and courtyard gardens, and the city's food culture, from trattorias to starred dining rooms, is reason enough to stay longer.
When to go: April through June and September through October are ideal, with warm days, comfortable evenings for outdoor dining and slightly thinner crowds than midsummer. July and August are hot, and many Romans leave the city in August, while winter is mild and quiet.
