La Dolce Vita

The sweet life takes on a whole new meaning at The First Roma Dolce, a patisserie-themed boutique hotel located on Rome's famed Via del Corso. Immerse yourself in the city's pastry culture, starting with a welcome gift of homemade bakes to kick off your stay. Enjoy them in one of the 23 rooms and suites in this 19th century building designed by well known Italian architect Giuseppe Valadier, which is also furnished with plenty of pastry-inspired books for you to browse while you snack.

On top of that, there's an all-dessert restaurant that serves treats from the pasticerria in the summer months, and offers chocolate tastings during the winter. Part of The Pavilion Hotels & Resorts, you can also expect customized experiences such as a personal shopping consultant to help you navigate the shopping district nearby.
