Avant-Garde lodgings by the stylish Spanish Steps

The Hotel Art at the Spanish Steps, in Rome, Italy

Hotel Art by The Spanish Steps

(Spanish Steps)

Attention fashion forward travelers: the post-modern boutique hotel has arrived in the heart of ancient Rome—and what better place than the art gallery–filled Via Margutta, a quiet alley just a few yards from the poshest shopping streets around the Piazza di Spagna?

The columns and vaulted ceilings of the entrance lobby speak of Italy, but the space is strewn with George Jetson table and chair sets and space age pods containing the reception desks.

In the rooms, organically angular wooden furnishings and tall minimalist lines give is a hint of Asian flair while lamps hanging from curling silver twigs, plush beddings, hardwood parquet floors, and avant-garde chairs and sofas show off contemporary Italian design.

This funky joint is definitely not everybody's cup of cappuccino, but if you dig whimsical, futuristic design and elegant appointments and want to stay in the heart of the action (and the heart of Rome's best high-end shopping district), the Hotel Art is a memorable choice.

Via Margutta 56, an alley parallel to Via del Babuino, the street leading from Piazza del Popolo to Piazza di Spagna (the Spanish Steps).
