The Hotel Quirinale offers all guests an unforgettable four star holiday in the very heart of one of most cultural cities in Europe. The elegance and charm is befitting a hotel surrounded by the Piazza della Repubblica, Piazza Venezia and the Trevi Fountain.
In the historic centre of Rome, the hotel was built in the second half of the 1800’s together with the Opera house, with whom it shares a privileged and unique entrance. It is the only hotel in Rome with direct access to the Opera House.
The Imperial style furniture and the an�que decora�ons in all public and private rooms of the hotel provide the Hotel Quirinale with an atmosphere of par�cular charm. All rooms have a private bathroom, hairdryer and toiletries. Rooms are also equipped with TV, fridge, telephone, ke�le, free safe and air-condi�oning. Some rooms also interconnect. The hotel is within walking distance of the Coliseum, Spanish Steps and Trevi fountain plus numerous other a�rac�ons. There is also a bus and Metro sta�on near the hotel.
