In the know

Our favourite rooms: The Residenza Napoleone III is stupendously grand, with two fine reception rooms and a master bedroom with silk-draped canopy bed. Of the six huge oil paintings you see, one is the bedhead, and another is the entrance to the exquisite marble bathroom. The Blue Bedroom is charming and cosy, named for its Chinese vases. The Roof Garden Terrace Suite has a multilevel decked terrace of some 600 square feet, with fabulous views of Rome. Its sitting room overlooks the terrace; its bedroom is small but well-appointed.
Packing tips: Buy yummy deli food to stock up the kitchenette, especially if you want breakfast in bed.
