Revel in the timeless charm of the Eternal City at this enduring landmark nestled along the scenic Villa Borghese.
The roads of Rome are paved with so much history that century-old buildings are considered new, which probably isn’t surprising for a city often described as an open air museum. While the Colosseum, Pantheon and dozens of other ancient monuments draw in the tourists, there are a host of other places that have also become an important part of the city’s fabric.
Although the structure that houses Hotel Eden only dates back to 1889, it holds an extraordinary, yet open secret—it is here where one can witness the most stunning panoramic views of the city of seven hills. Just a stone’s throw away from the Spanish Steps and the Trevi Fountain, the hotel offers a unique vantage point to take in landmarks such as the Vatican and Il Vittoriano, as well as Rome’s lush, golden-hued landscape.
Sitting on a side street, Hotel Eden’s unassuming façade conceals a gem of a space. After a thorough 18-month-long restoration, the esteemed Dorchester Collection hotel reopened last April to much fanfare. The design was a collaborative effort of two revered firms: Bruno Moinard and Claire Betaille of 4BI & Associates, and Patrick Jouin and Sanjit Manku of Jouin Manku.
