Il Palazzetto
Style Wine-lovers' world
Setting A stagger from the Spanish Steps
This island of serenity and elegance lies in the heart of the Roman tourist beast, only a few short metres from the Spanish Steps. In fact, the view from the terrace of Rome's Il Palazzetto hotel onto the 18th-century landmark is absurdly perfect. The private spaces are quiet and airy, lulling the world away. King-size beds are swathed in voluptuous yet unisex fabrics, and the marble bathrooms, which seem demure, are, upon inspection, quite naughty.

Packing tips
Rosary beads; a pick and shovel to unearth ancient artefacts a few metres down (the reason Rome's metro has never been completed).
