Celebrating the 70th Anniversary of Roman Holiday

On occasion of seventy years of 'Roman Holiday', Hotel de la Ville proposes an exclusive tour of the Eternal City on two wheels.

Hotel de la Ville, a Rocco Forte Hotel celebrates the 70th anniversary of “Roman Holiday” with an exclusive experience on two wheels that will take guests on a tour of the iconic locations of Rome featured in the legendary movie.

Released in 1953 and directed by William Wyler, the film helped to establish the Eternal City in the collective imagination as the embodiment of the Dolce Vita lifestyle.

Created exclusively for hotel guests, this exhilarating scooter ride will trace the steps of the film’s two leading characters, played by Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck, taking in all the Roman locations made iconic by the multi-award winning picture.

See the Pantheon and Trevi Fountain, Mouth of Truth and the Victor Emmanuel II National Monument, and on to Piazza di Spagna where Audrey Hepburn in the role of Princess Anna buys a gelato to eat on the Spanish Steps. Next comes the Roman Forum and the Colosseum, and lastly, Via della Stamperia where, in order to avoid being recognized, the princess decided to have a haircut. The actress was so utterly captivated by her “Roman Holiday” experience that she went on to spend twenty years of her life in the capital.

This exciting scooter itinerary is the Hotel de la Ville’s tribute to the strong ties between Rome and the film industry. It offers guests an opportunity to make an unforgettable discovery of the city’s most enchanting corners, and all on two wheels, echoing Hepburn’s own scooter ride around Rome in the most celebrated of 1950s American romantic comedies

Dream Portraits: a work of art inspired by your sleep

The novel "Dream Portraits" project by Rocco Forte Hotels invites guests to turn their dreams into reality with the help of Roman artist Matteo Nasini.

From intangible to material, "Dream Portraits" is a project by Rocco Forte Hotels, allowing guests of Hotel de la Ville’s suites and the Rocco Forte House private residences in Rome to have their dreams visually and audibly brought to life. In partnership with renowned Roman artist Matteo Nasini, the experience includes a dream recording, the creation of a sculptural work of art or an audio track delivered to guest's homes following their stay. The ultimate personal keepsake from a very special sojourn , the sculpture will become a memory in physical form, capturing each guest’s state of mind during their time in Rome.

Matteo Nasini aims to make the dreamlike state tangible by translating the chemical activity of the brain into shapes and sounds. During their stay, guests are invited to wear a comfortable headset equipped with EEG sensors that subtly record brain activity. Whilst they sleep, a real time conversion software transforms the data into audio signals resulting in the creation of sound waves to be turned into a sculpture.

The process involves 3D printing technology, creating unique fine porcelain sculptures that each tell a story of depth and individuality, never before captured. A rare opportunity to interact with a dream of their own design, the resulting work of art is intricate and deeply personal to each guest. Matteo Nasini has long been fascinated by the possible ephemeral and material forms that dreams can produce. The instinctive human desire to consciously witness our dreams led him to explore the sounds generated by different sleeping phases, turning them into a physical representation of once inaccessible emotions, thoughts and feelings.

The project is a first-of-its-kind experience that combines contemporary art, craftsmanship, and the luxury of staying in a Rocco Forte Hotels suite. To access the experience, guests can choose from 15 elegant suites with stunning views of the Eternal City at Hotel de la Ville or one of five luxury private apartments at Rocco Forte House within an 18th-century palazzo.
