Hotel Overview

The Residenza Torre Colonna Rome is one of the city’s most unique and charming upmarket accommodations. There are a handful of luxury guest houses in the historical centre that occupy truly historical buildings - former noble residences and the like - but the Torre Colonna is actually a defensive fort built in the 13th century and inhabited by the Francesco Colonna, Roman noble and friend of the great poet Petrarch.

In the warmer months the roof terrace - Jacuzzi and all - is open to guests from breakfast onwards and offers spellbinding views over the rooftops of the historical centre, with the grandiose Vittorio Emanuele III monument just a few hundred yards away.

Inside the 10-foot thick stone walls adorned with original frescoes and antique fixtures and fittings, guests are comforted by 21st century conveniences like climate control, Italian satellite TV and high speed internet access.
