Hotel Excelsior - Rome, Italy - Antique Hotels on Waymarking.com

This hotel, inaugurated in 1906, is featured in the website famoushotels.org and presented with the following text:

“The Excelsior - like the Colisseum or the Vatican - is a synonym of Rome. Located at the apex of the Via Venato, the Roman avenue made so fashionable by Fellini in La Dolce Vita, the hotel still rises regally above the street commanding Fellinesque attention. General manager Michele Frignani runs a magical hotel where film icons, politicians and business tycoons move through the brass revolving doors.”
