The Experience

Rome Cavalieri Hotel

The hotel opened its doors to international travellers 50 years ago and has gained an enviable reputation as one of the Eternal City’s leading hotels. Part of the prestigious brand Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts, since 2008 the Rome Cavalieri joined an exclusive club of properties that are simply ‘one of a kind’.

This plush hotel — set amidst a lush 15-acre retreat in the heart of the city — boasts a private art  collection rivaling those of many museums.

Overlooking the panorama that has inspired visitors for centuries is Rome’s most prestigious address. Though only minutes from the city’s great monuments, reachable with the Hotel’s complimentary shuttle bus service, the Rome Cavalieri has the tranquility of an oasis. Enclosed in fifteen acres of lush Mediterranean parklands, it is a calm retreat in the heart of the Eternal City, an elegant refuge where time slows and hearts quicken. The first hotel in Europe to be part of the exclusive Waldorf Astoria luxury brand, the Rome Cavalieri, Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts is more than just a 5-star property.

   The best hotel restaurant in Italy, La Pergola is much more than just a famous menu.

A wine cellar with over 53,000 bottles, a water menu with 29 choices, olive oils and vintage balsamic vinegars from the best producers in Italy, and the finest ingredients to be sourced in theMediterranean — all hint at the pursuit of culinary excellence.  But like everything at the Rome Cavalieri, it is also about ambience, about style. Your table is laid with vermeil plates and cutlery. All around are some of the hotel’s most charming art treasures – fine paintings, a rare Aubusson tapestry, Sèvres porcelain, 18th century bronze candelabra, precious imperial furniture and a wonderful collection of hand-blown glass by Emile Gallé.

On the garden level of the hotel, L’Uliveto overlooks the landscaped park adjacent to the outdoor pool. Featuring Mediterranean and international dishes, its menu leans naturally towards Italian cuisine. In summer, tables are laid outside on the terrace.  Situated in the main lobby, the Rome Cavalieri, Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts Tiepolo Lounge is the focal point of the hotel. With terraces extendingoutside, where cushioned wicker chairs and sofas overlook the pool and the gardens, this is where guests meet and mingle, the place to see and be seen.  To complement the treatments in the Grand Spa and to rejuvenate those working out in the gym, our Grand Spa Café offers a selection of healthy drinks and light meals, including freshly squeezed juices, fitness drinks, salads, and fresh fruit.  Located next to the outdoor pool, the Pool Bar is a fun and active place for a drink or a meal throughout the summer months.
