Romans might call the Hotel de’ Ricci a chicca—a rare gem of a spot. This eight-room boutique hotel around the corner from the tranquil Piazza Farnese was designed for wine and design lovers. (During your stay, expect to bump into some of the most interesting wine makers in Europe.) Owner Lorenzo Lisi curated each room with midcentury-inspired furniture, including original vintage pieces, and hand-painted murals by contemporary artist Andrea Ferolla, creating the feel of a private Roman home. Each room has a wine fridge with personalized guest preferences by Ricci’s general manager, who is also a trained sommelier.
The Ferolla-designed Charade Bar has nightly aperitivi and wine tastings. Note that Lisi is also the owner of Rome’s beloved fish restaurant PierLuigi and has bragging rights to one of the best-stocked wine caves in the city, with close to 1,500 labels. From $430
