Hotel Augustus Roma

Hotel Augustus Roma is housed in an elegant palazzo of the 19th century just a few steps from Porta Pia Michelangelo¿s last work and the renowned Via Veneto of the 60s Dolce Vita. The hotel is very well connected to public transport links with termini central station a short walk away. There is a reception open 24 hours a day staffed with multilingual personnel to help guests with any query. All the rooms are cosy and comfortable with views over the ancient Aurelian walls. Breakfast is available in the mornings for guests and served in the beautifully decorated breakfast room at the hotel. Nearby places of interest include the MACRO ¿ Museum of Contemporary Art of Rome containing wonderful collections of Italian art since the 1960s. For picnics and relaxing strolls there is Rome¿s favourite park Villa Borghese only ten minutes away from the hotel providing an oasis of greenery in amongst the cobbled streets of Rome¿s city centre. The park contains over 400 newly planted pine trees, sculptures by Bernini¿s father Pietro and dramatic water features by Giovanni Fontana and lakes. Guests can also pay a visit to the Etruscan Musuem and Borghese Gallery near the park both boasting stunning collections of archaeological and artistic interest respectively. In less than 20 minutes on foot, guests can reach the beautiful Spanish Steps and pay a visit to the Keats-Shelley Museum dedicated to the English poets who fell in love with this location. For an afternoon of shopping there is Via Condotti and Via del Corso close to the hotel, both streets lined with designer labels and boutiques where Italian haute-couture fashion is at its best.
