Constructed during mid 1800s, a turbulent time in Italy’s history, the Grand Hotel Plaza was initially the residential home of a noble Italian family from Piemonte. It was subsequently converted in 1860 into a luxury 5 star hotel which, given its superb city centre location in the heart of Rome, ensured it was an instant success.

Indeed, one of the Hotel’s most illustrious guests was Pope Pius IX who stayed here in 1866 in order to bestow honour on the Mexican Empress Carlotta who preferred the ornate splendour of the Grand Hotel Plaza to the modest accommodations of the Vatican!
The public rooms at the Grand Hotel Plaza, spacious, ornate with enormous crystal chandeliers, stained glass skylights were the perfect setting for important meetings between noble families, businessmen and politicians.

Among some of the most important historical events to have taken place here were the preliminary meetings between European member states who came to Rome for the European Treaty Conference on a Single European Market in 1957.

In the exclusive world of luxury Roman hospitality the Grand Hotel Plaza enjoys one of the best city centre locations in Rome. Situated in the historical centre of Rome only a few short metres from world famous Roman squares such Piazza di Spagna (Spanish Steps), Piazza della Rotonda (The Pantheon) and Piazza del Popolo.

The Plaza Hotel is also the ideal departure point for sightseeing with many of Rome’s major historical sites only a few minutes walk away. Enjoy memorable walks to the nearby Trevi Fountain (7 minutes), Pantheon (7 minutes) and the Spanish Steps (3 minutes). Alternatively why not enjoy a romantic walk through the Villa Borghese park and gardens (10 minutes) which is open all year round and is ideal for an early morning jog.
