NileGuide Expert tip:
If Hassler is too big, ask for one of the four rooms at the Palazzetto, just off the Spanish steps
Description:
The Westin Excelsior is a grander palace, and the Eden and the de Russie are more up-to-date, but the Hassler has something that no other hotel can boast -- a coveted location at the top of the Spanish Steps. The Hassler, rebuilt in 1944 to replace the 1885 original, is not quite what it used to be, but because it's such a classic, it gets away with charging astronomical rates. The lounges and the guest rooms still strike a glamorous, if faded, 1930s note. Guest rooms range from small singles to some of the most spacious suites in town. High ceilings make them appear larger than they are, and many of them open onto private balconies or terraces. For panoramas of the Roman rooftops, ask for a room on the top floor. Although some of the accommodations remain a bit dowdy, those on the fourth floor are elegantly renovated.
