01Is it for you?
Is Six Senses Rome right for your stay?
- Why choose it
- The Roman Baths, and the very centre. The hotel fills a restored palazzo on Piazza di San Marcello, off Via del Corso, a few minutes' walk from the Trevi Fountain and the Pantheon; below it is a bathing circuit of caldarium, tepidarium and frigidarium after the ancient Roman ritual, and on the roof a garden restaurant and bar looking across to the Vittoriano.
- Who it suits
- Couples who travel for wellness, and families: children stay free in their parents' room within the hotel's age band, confirmed for your dates, and its two two-bedroom suites each take a family of five. Hotel de Russie is the garden house and Hotel Eden the view from the hill; this is the one for seeing the centre on foot.
- What to consider
- The hotel's lists name no swimming pool: the water here is the Roman Baths' three plunge pools, a circuit for bathing rather than swimming, with a minimum age of 16 for the baths. The roof is seasonal — NOTOS opens from April to November, weather permitting, by the hotel's account — and we confirm it for your dates.
02The hotel
The hotel and its rooms
Six Senses Rome occupies Palazzo Salviati Cesi Mellini, a protected palazzo in Rome’s historic centre, on Piazza di San Marcello beside the church of San Marcello al Corso. Its façade and monumental staircase have been restored, and the architect Patricia Urquiola designed the interiors around Roman materials — cocciopesto plaster and travertine — with plants hung through the rooms and Ludovico Quaroni’s steel half-moon over the inner courtyard. Beneath the hotel lie the remains of the church’s ancient baptismal font, seen through a glass opening in the floor or, down a flight of stairs, close to.
Rooms and suites
The first choice is the side. The Deluxe and Superior Deluxe Rooms and the Deluxe Suites come facing either the courtyard, which the hotel calls tranquil, or the city — Via del Corso and the piazza. The entry rooms are the Deluxe Rooms, 34 m², and the Superior Deluxe Rooms, 36 m² with a sitting area, each with a king bed or twins. Above them, the Junior Suites (47 m²) and the double-aspect Deluxe Junior Suites (51 m²) look over the city from higher up, and the Deluxe Suites (55 m²) add a separate living and dining room. For outdoor space, the Terrace Junior Suite has 45 m² inside and a 55 m² terrace, on the third or fourth floor, and the Salviati Suite a terrace over the courtyard; the Corner Suites (77 m²) look onto the piazza and the church.
For a family the hotel has two two-bedroom suites, each with two king bedrooms and a terrace: the Mellini Suite, 112 m² with a library, and the Lata Suite, 126 m² with two bathrooms and a 96 m² terrace beside the church façade — each for a family of five. Children stay free in their parents’ room within the hotel’s age band, on a day bed or a rollaway, confirmed for your dates, and several categories connect, for up to six.
Tell us when you enquire which side, which bed arrangement and whether step-free access matters, and we confirm it with the hotel for your dates before anything is booked.
On the practical side: we arrange the private transfer from Fiumicino, forty minutes to an hour by the hotel’s reckoning, or Ciampino, about forty minutes; Roma Termini is about a quarter of an hour by car. Valet parking is available for anyone driving, in-suite dining runs round the clock, the hotel has accessible rooms, and small dogs up to 10 kg are welcome, though not in its specialty restaurant or the spa.
At the hotel
Facilities
- The Roman Baths, on the lower ground floor: three plunge pools — caldarium, tepidarium and frigidarium — reproducing the ancient bathing circuit; minimum age 16
- Six Senses Spa: five treatment rooms, one for couples, a hammam, sauna and steam rooms, a biohacking room, and the Alchemy Bar, where a therapist works with herbs and plants
- A fitness centre open round the clock, a yoga studio and meditation room, aerial yoga and an outdoor yoga deck
- For children: kids' yoga, cooking and fresco-painting workshops and a gladiator school, a children's menu, and babysitting on request
Eating and drinking
BIVIUM, on the ground floor, is restaurant, café and bar in one, from breakfast to dinner: an open kitchen with a Josper grill for fish, meat and vegetables and a wood-fired pizza oven, deli corners for coffee, fresh produce and gelato, and a bar of green Verde Alpi marble in the inner courtyard. On the roof, in season, NOTOS Rooftop Restaurant is Fabio Sangiovanni’s: Mediterranean cooking with Roman traditions, the day’s crudo from the market and fish cooked over charcoal, served among planters of herbs that find their way onto the plate. NOTOS Rooftop Bar, beside it, pours aperitivo and cocktails made with those herbs. We reserve the tables.
03Location
Where Six Senses Rome is
Six Senses Rome stands on Piazza di San Marcello, the small square that opens off Via del Corso beside the church of San Marcello al Corso, in the Trevi rione. By a pedestrian route it is about five minutes’ walk to the Trevi Fountain and about seven to the Pantheon, and the Colosseum is about twenty minutes on foot — approximate times. The map shows it with what is around it: the Trevi Fountain to the north-east, Piazza Colonna up the Corso, the Pantheon to the west, Palazzo Doria Pamphilj across the street and the Vittoriano at the foot of the Corso. Hotel Eden and Hotel de Russie, the other Rome hotels we feature, are on the hill above the Spanish Steps and at the Piazza del Popolo end of Via del Babuino. For the city itself, see our Rome page.

05Planning
Planning a stay with Avelia
Six Senses Rome can be the whole of a stay in Rome, or the Rome nights of a journey on to the Amalfi Coast. Before any payment, we send a written proposal with a quoted trip price and what it includes — such as your room, a private transfer from Fiumicino or Ciampino, the Vatican Museums or the Colosseum with a guide, and reservations at NOTOS on the roof — and refine it with you. Once you approve the proposal and complete the agreed booking requirements, we confirm your arrangements. We coordinate the details and support you while you travel.
How we choose hotels. For their size and character before their brand, and for how they suit the way you travel. No hotel is on our list simply because it sits on a preferred-partner programme. More in our story
