The Hotel d’Inghilterra has its origins in the most aristocratic and elegant
period in Rome’s history: monarchs, princes, artists and screen idols have always
made it their home in the capital, attracted by flawless hospitality and an ideal
location near Piazza di Spagna.
The original building dates back to the 16th century, when it was built to serve
as guest quarters for the nearby palazzo of the illustrious Torlonia family.
Visiting friends and compatriots of the poet John Keats, who lived in Piazza di
Spagna, stayed there, and when the building became a hotel in 1845 it took the
name Hotel d’Angleterre. Since that time the hotel has built a reputation as the
preferred Roman base for an elite international clientele. |
