Defining luxury is often challenging. This couldn’t be more true in Rome, a city blessed with some of the best luxury hotels in the world, each with their own charms and uniquenesses.
La Scelta di Goethe (literally “The choice of Goethe”), one-of-a-kind property in the heart of Rome, is redefining luxury.
La Scelta di Goethe provides a 5 star luxury service all in an absolute privacy, a privacy that cannot be found in a traditional hotel. The staff is available during the whole day to make your holiday unforgettable with the”savoir-faire” of Italian Hospitality. A kind of warm hospitality that makes you feel at home away from home.
The main entrance is located on the high street Via del Corso, a prime central location which connects two famous landmark squares: Piazza Venezia and Piazza del Popolo. It is also a stone’s throw away from the Spanish steps. The eternal city is waiting to be rediscovered, over and over again. On entering, a lift will take you up to the fourth floor where our hotel is situated.
