Italy, Rome – Hotel Art (by the Spanish Steps)
An artistically inspired hotel, not only because of its location or because it has been built out of an ancient college, but because art is the theme running throughout it.
Do not expect glaring signs. The entrance is a minimalist corridor imitating the many art galleries lining Via Margutta, a long pedestrian corridor, with the walls lined in shining white marble, paved with white cobbles, and illuminated with a creation by the artist Enzo Catellani, leading to the Hall.
Hotel Art by the Spanish Steps Review
Being near one of the biggest tourist attractions (the Spanish Steps) had me concerned that this hotel would be noisy and overcrowded – but this was certainly not the case! It is located in one of the nicest areas in Rome, in my opinion, and is situated in the most peaceful street, just away from all the hustle and bustle. A secret little street, it’s like stepping into another world full of unique shops that sold some great jewelry, art and other things you wouldn’t see in the ‘typical’ stores.

There is a train station right at the Spanish Steps that can take you quickly to the Colosseum and the Vatican. There are also a lot of things within close walking distance. The staff were also able to suggest some great local places to eat, restaurants and cafes.
