Hotel Sant'Anselmo in Rome, Italy
A room at the Hotel Sant'Anselmo in Rome, Italy

The San Anselmo is the posh, showy centerpiece of a midget hotel empire consisting of a trio of hotels on this quietest, most residential of Rome's famous seven hills (the others are moderately-priced Villa San Pio and Aventino).

Of the three hotels, the San Anselmo has more consistently classy accommodations (though the best rooms at the friendlier San Pio definitely outshine).

The public salons and halls are fitted with Oriental rugs, chandeliers, embroidered drapes, and other accoutrements of the 18th and 19th centuries.

The bedrooms feature antiques or reproductions, embroidered headboards, rich wall fabrics, modernized baths, firm beds, and marble panel or stone tile floors. Third floor accommodations also have air-conditioning.

The Aventine Hill is an almost preternaturally quiet oasis of villas, leafy gardens, and residential blocks—tucked between the Circus Maximus, the Palatine, and the Baths of Caracalla, yet a world away from the chaos and traffic of Rome all around. Tourists rarely venture here, which is a shame, since its packed with several fine antique churches, some lovely city panoramas, and a few rarely visited ancient sights.
