Lo.An Donna Laura Palace

 Well-appointed, friendly and professional choice with more space than many in this position just near the river. Offers food and beverage opportunities on the roof looking out across the river to the historic centre in the summer months.

Has the benefit of a small leisure facility with sauna, fitness room and hydro-massage. A short walk across a bridge nearby to reach the area around Villa Borghese park and the shopping streets near Piazza di Spagna.

Suit those wanting a well-facilitated, personal option, away from the traffic and noise of the centre and unusually offering lots of balconies and on-site parking. Sister property is Imperiale on Via Veneto.
