ホテルに滞在する 3 つの理由:
-
The View at the Spanish Steps is truly ‘a room with a view’. It has an unbeatable location right on the Piazza di Spagna and Via Condotti, and so just steps away from the best shopping in Rome and within strolling distance to pretty well all the amazing sightseeing the city offers. Great restaurants are abundant within a most pleasurable stroll. You’ll feel you are in the middle of all the acton and you can soak in the permanent buzz around the Spanish Steps area, yet there is the tranquility and the cosiness of the hotel which you can retreat to after a day exploring the city. Get a room that looks right onto the Piazza di Spagna and you’ll be mesmerized by the view.
-
The hotel lives and breathes la dolce vita! Its set-up (just 6 rooms arranged around a living area with comfortable couches and a garden terrace) gives it a most intimate ambience – like you’re staying at a friend’s place. If you are traveling in a big group, rent the whole hotel and you have a lovely home away from home all to yourself. You will feel that you’re transported to a bygone era and to la dolce vita right from the moment you ride on The View’s antique cage elevator. The View is an exercise in pure elegant Italian living.
-
The garden terrace is to-die-for! The best in Italian gardening and a most lovely place to people-watch and unwind, whether over breakfast or a pre-dinner drink (or anytime of the day for that matter). Admire the lovely apartments across the street too with their most beautiful garden terraces, and you will want to live there for the rest of your life. Bring a good travel companion and/or a good book and just enjoy the best that Rome has to offer!
概要：
I was upgraded to a junior suite (the Byron & Shelley Suite) at The View, and my heart was captured the moment I entered my room! The view is just unbeatable with the permanent buzz around the Spanish Steps day and night, and yet I was perched high up on the fifth floor and I could soak in the atmosphere with a glass of wine in hand! The hotel has limited facilities but there are enough great restaurants within walking distance and the staff at The View will have no problem pointing you to the right places (one even volunteered his favourite dish at a nearby trattoria Al 59 near Piazza Poppolo – the linguine with scampi – and it was indeed as good as it was claimed to be!) The garden terrace is the loveliest of Italian gardening and I had no difficulty whiling away half a morning reading a book there before venturing out to explore all the sightseeing Rome has to offer. I’m a keen photographer and just the garden terrace itself yielded enough photo ops. Pretty well everything is within walking distance too (the healthy walks mean I could make room to eat yet more great Italian food). Live la dolce vita (or Julia Roberts’ new film ‘Eat, Pray, Love’, gelato in hand) with a stay at The View!
