IHG Hotels & Resorts celebrates a new era of luxury in Rome

IHG Hotels & Resorts is at the forefront of a resurgence in luxury in the Italian capital of Rome as two new exquisite hotels, InterContinental Rome Ambasciatori Palace and Six Senses Rome open their doors. The hotels, alongside IHG’s exclusive partnership with Mr & Mrs Smith, mark a new era for both the city and IHG’s Italian luxury and lifestyle collection. 

Jane Mackie, Senior Vice President of Luxury and Lifestyle brands at IHG, said: “2023 is a wonderfully exciting year for IHG Hotels & Resorts in Rome.  With our two new amazing hotels and a wealth of restaurants opening, there are so many reasons to explore the Eternal City. The city hasn’t seen this level of brand-new luxury hotels open in many years.” 

Whether guests are looking to explore the grand baroque buildings, the immense squares, florid churches and fountains, or live La Dolce Vita, Rome is one of the hottest destinations to visit in 2023. 

Six Senses Rome opened in March and is the brand’s first hotel in Italy, bringing its passion points of sustainability and wellness to an urban environment. 

InterContinental Rome Ambasciatori Palace will open in May 2023, reimagined as an icon of “La Dolce Vita.” Located in the heart of Rome on the legendary Via Veneto, the property bears the signature of the renowned Italian architect Carlo Busiri Vici, originally built in 1900 to host ambassadors staying in Rome, before serving as the American Embassy Library in 1946.

Featuring 160 rooms and luxury suites in a style that combines neo-classical details with chic contemporary design, the hotel embodies both charm and historical splendor. Multiple culinary delights await guests including Scarpetta NYC, serving elevated Italian and American cuisine for lunch and dinner in an intimate and convivial urban space, in addition to Charlie’s Rooftop and Anita’s Bar and Lounge. Charlie’s Rooftop will be the only roof top venue in the city open all year round, allowing travellers and locals alike to come together for aperitivo or late-night cocktails whatever the weather. 

Room rates at InterContinental Rome from €745. Room rates at Six Senses Rome from €1437.
