The Palazzo Ripetta in Rome is one of the ten new Relais & Châteaux entries which also include the brand's debut in Egypt, with the Al Moudira in Luxor.
Palazzo Ripetta has works by famous artists
The Palazzo Ripetta in Rome, founded in the late 17th century, was purchased in the 1960s by the family of the current CEO, Giacomo Crisci, and over the years has been embellished with art and design works including the iconic Sfera by Pomodoro and the works of other great artists like Bruno Liberatore and Giacomo Manzù, and even pioneers of New York street art, including Angel Ortiz. Having undergone a complete refurbishment the hotel now has 78 rooms and suites, five meeting rooms, the San Baylon Restaurant, the indoor Baylon Cocktail Bar, the Piazzetta Ripetta in the outdoor courtyard, and the new and exclusive Etere Rooftop, on the building’s top floor.
