Celio

Hotel Celio is a delightful 20-room hotel rich in atmosphere, situated in the heart of 19th Century Rome, just a short walk away from the Forum and the Colosseum. It has recently been restored with impeccable taste and elegance. The rooms are equipped with the most modern appliances; comfort is guaranteed down to every detail. Putting our guests first sets Hotel Celio apart from the rest, making it a jewel of Italian hospitality. Our rooms, welcoming and unusually spacious, are each distinguished by a large fresco illustrating Renaissance themes, whether by Tiziano, Cellini or Michelangelo after whom the rooms are named. So instead of numbers, each room bears the name of prestigious artist, balancing art and elegance with the most modern appliances: satellite and cable tv, Videoplayer, safebox and minibar, air-conditioning and hair-dryer. The upper floors are equipped with Jacuzzis. Our latest addition is a splendid suite overlooking the Colosseum. Be received into a beautiful 1870 mansion which combines sheer elegance with the traditional warmth of old Roman houses. Classical drapes and fittings, frescoes, mosaic and trompe d'oeil flooring provide an ambience all its own. With this goes a special attention to the guest, evidenced in a thousand different ways: breakfasts served in the room and on the terrace, English marmalade straight from the jar, fresh bread and croissants served at all hours; luxury sunbathing on the roofgarden, private parking an garage below. Hotel Celio is an ideal venue from which to discover and experience the fascination of Rome and its most important monuments.
