A historic building in the dolce-vita atmosphere of the Eternal City. The Grand Hotel de la Minerve occupies a magnificent 17th-century palazzo overlooking the Piazza della Minerva, named after an ancient temple to the goddess of wisdom which once stood here. The large, well-lit hall boasts a beautiful Liberty-style ceiling, the centerpiece of which is a stained-glass depiction of Minerva herself. All the spacious rooms are furnished in period style and differ from one another in terms of layout and decor. La Cesta serves Italian and international culinary specialities prepared with the freshest ingredients in an elegant setting. On a clear evening you can see forever across the rooftops of Rome from the Roof Garden terrace, where the mood is pure magic during the summer months.
