Via Veneto crosses an ancient estate, transformed after it was bought and remodeled by cardinal Prince Ludovico Ludovisi in the early XVIIth century into one of Romes-ns most splendid and luxurious areas. Now one hundred years old ( more precisely, since 2005), the hotel was built between 1900 and 1905 on plans drawn by the well-known architect Carlo Busiri Vici.

The polychrome stucco-work of mouldings, ceilings, arches and capitals may now be seen in its original splendour, as well as the Brazilian granite columns, the marble and mosaic flooring, and the intricate wrought- iron railings of the grand staircase.
