I may not be the biggest fan possible of modern design, but Bulgari hotels stay apart from those which can be considered too cold, too slick, too plain. Well, anything but plain with all these meticulously chosen details, materials, colours, and details again. Bulgari hotels, all I was staying at, are pure delight for all senses, and my architectural background singing and jumping inside of me with joy while I’m wondering around.
Bulgari Roma is no exception from this architectural poem.
First, you need time to explore your room because it really worth exploration and photo shooting before you spoil this beauty scattering around your shoes, t-shirts and gadget chargers. The level of details and amenities is royal, and rare person would not sneak to each drawer and door to see what else is prepared there for the perfect soggiorno.
When you are finally out of the room, expect more wonders on every step. I would say, interiors are very grand, filled with exquisite details, but they are also very human and somehow cozy, designed to impress but also to cocoon guests in modern comfort. Well, quite noble comfort, I should say, so you may not want to wear your old travel sweatpants out here (I don’t posses them, so I’m safe :-))
The main character on this impressive stage is marble. You see marble a lot in Italy, but the marbles chosen for interiors of Bulgari Hotel Roma are true masterpieces created by nature. Simply outstanding.
The building that houses the hotel is an example of rationalist architecture, designed by the architect Vittorio Ballio Morpurgo and built between 1936 and 1938. No doubts, quite dramatic era which changed the pattern of eternal city.
The only down point would be restoration works in progress around Mausoleum of Augustus just in front of hotel. It is not a true bother, windows are soundproof, and Rome is all about excavation, but clients should be advised that they may see bulldozers from the window of their beautiful room. Well, they also can see Mausoleum of Augustus itself.
And oh… you are steps from anything you want in Rome. Very few steps. You are actually in the middle of everything.
