Corinthia Rome opens its doors

Located in the neighbourhood of Campo Marzio, moments from the Pantheon, Roman Forum and Spanish Steps the property is owned by Reuben Brothers and is their second hotel to be operated by Corinthia Hotels. Designed by Pio and Marcello Piacentini, the property was constructed between 1913 and 1921. The restoration that gave rise to Corinthia Rome was envisioned not simply as a renovation but as a considered revival of the building’s architectural and cultural legacy. Led by hospitality design studio GA, the structure has returned to its original proportions, stripped of later interventions and reinterpreted through rigorous historical and philological research, revealing mosaics, stuccoes, cornices, painted ceilings and marble detailing.

The symbolic heart of this rebirth is the former Council Chamber overlooking Palazzo Montecitorio, now transformed into the Theodoli Heritage Suite. A space of remarkable narrative presence, it preserves the original 1920s frescoes by Giulio Bargellini and a ceiling by Guglielmo Janni - an allegorical map tracing the history of Italian currency. Where pivotal financial decisions were once made, guests now rest beneath a painted cycle of civic virtues, symbolic processions and images of national prosperity. Now, as Corinthia Rome, that original language is reinterpreted: a former seat of power reopens to the city as a place where value is measured not in reserves, but in beauty, time and human connection.

Corinthia’s grand boutique ethos is demonstrated through grand architecture and the vibrant social life of the hotel which is curated by Italy’s celebrated chef Carlo Cracco in his Roman debut. At Viride, overlooking the interior garden, contemporary Italian cuisine is expressed through a refined, seasonal dialogue with exceptional produce. Piazzetta evokes Rome’s tradition of lively, open-hearted hospitality, while Ocra Bar, in warm nocturnal tones, sets the scene for aperitifs and late evenings.

“Corinthia Rome was created to be experienced,” says Danilo Zucchetti, Managing Director. “We invite the world to visit and fill this rediscovered building with vibrant energy. The authentic connection with Rome and its inhabitants is what matters most to us and is what makes the experience truly memorable, both for our guests from all over the world and for the Romans themselves”

The 60 rooms, including 21 suites, are designed as private residences within the historic fabric of the building. Generous in proportion and filled with natural light, they feature high ceilings and large windows overlooking Rome or the inner courtyard. Restored architectural details are paired with contemporary furnishings, creating a measured balance between heritage and modern comfort.

The suites express the hotel’s grand residential spirit. From the duplex Campo Marzio Suites to the Chigi Suite with its sweeping rooftop terrace, from the Arte Suite to the Theodoli Heritage Suite, each offers a distinct interpretation of Roman character. The Aurea Penthouse crowns the collection - inspired by the Domus Aurea and designed for complete privacy above the city.

Where the bank vault once safeguarded financial reserves, it now protects a sense of personal time. Inspired by the ritual of Roman bathing, the Corinthia Spa is an intimate, subterranean space shaped by water, mineral stone and softened light - a quiet counterpoint to the city above. The treatment menu developed in collaboration with Italian brand Seed to Skin and 111Skin London, combines botanical intelligence with clinical innovation in rituals focused on deep regeneration. With signature treatments such as The Chrysalis and Reverse Signature Facial, the partnership with Seed to Skin brings international guests a distinctly Italian approach to wellness – marrying Tuscan botanicals with advanced performance.

Rooms at Corinthia Rome start from €1300, with suites from €2100 which can be packaged to include various enhancements. Easter in the Eternal City celebrates the period with a package available from 1 to 12 April 2026, including daily breakfast for two, early check-in, late check-out and room upgrade subject to availability, with a welcome Easter amenity and a hotel credit of €100 per room per stay.

Corinthia Rome returns a historic landmark to the city, reimagined for contemporary life as Rome’s eternally artful enclave.
