In 2026, the "Eternal City" continues to host A-listers at a handful of legendary five-star establishments. Hotel de Russie, located near Piazza del Popolo, remains a top pick for stars like George Clooney and Brad Pitt due to its "Secret Garden" which offers a rare private sanctuary. The Hassler Roma, perched at the top of the Spanish Steps, is a historic favorite for royalty and Hollywood icons like Tom Cruise. Newer luxury entries have also shifted the celebrity landscape: the Bulgari Hotel Roma, which opened in 2023, has become the go-to for fashion icons and influencers, while the Six Senses Rome attracts eco-conscious stars. For a more "Old World" grandeur, the St. Regis Rome and the Hotel Eden (part of the Dorchester Collection) remain staples for musicians and actors. These hotels are favored not just for their opulent suites, but for their high-security protocols and private entrances that allow famous guests to navigate Rome’s bustling streets with relative anonymity and world-class service.
