    What sets Six Senses Rome apart

    1. The palazzo

      Palazzo Salviati Cesi Mellini was first built between 1484 and 1490 for a cardinal, and remodelled in the eighteenth century. Its front on the square was restored for the hotel.

    2. What is under the floor

      A baptismal pool of the fourth century, found in excavations at the start of the twentieth century, lies under glass in the floor of the hotel's café.

    3. The Roman baths

      The spa follows the order of an ancient bath house, with warm, hot and cold rooms and plunge pools.

    4. The church next door

      The hotel paid for the cleaning of the front of San Marcello al Corso, the Baroque church that shares its square.

    Five centuries a palace, since 2023 a hotel

    For a long time the palace was the residence of the cardinal who held the title of San Marcello. It passed through the Salviati, the Cesi and the Mellini families, who gave it its name.

    Six Senses opened it as a hotel on 16 March 2023, to the designs of Patricia Urquiola. It was the group's first hotel in a city in Italy.
