Facing onto a quiet, narrow street, Dei Borgognoni Hotel is a remodelled palazzo dating from 1800, and lies between the Trevi Fountain (200 metres away), and the Spanish Steps (350 metres away).

The inner garden courtyard is a tranquil sanctuary which recalls the former palazzo's 19th century origins.

Open in warm weather months, a wrought iron gazebo with white canopies and red drapes includes a phone for ordering room service meals and drinks. White blossom drapes the stone walls and flower beds contribute vivid colours; in spring, guests can pick from kumquat and orange trees.

The concierge is available to provide advice on local sightseeing, as well as booking restaurants and excursions. Valet parking is offered in the hotel's garage (surcharge).

The hotel supplies complimentary bicycles.

The National Museum of Pasta Foods 250 metres from the hotel offers self guided tours revealing the history of pasta. Included are ancient and modern machinery, explanations of how shapes are invented, and photographs of Italian movie stars eating pasta. A € 10 entrance fee (subject to change) includes use of an audio guide in various languages.

The nearest airport is Rome Ciampino (CIA) 24 kilometres away, around 35 minutes by car.
