Profile |
Grand Hotel del Gianicolo is an elegant hotel overlooking the eternal city, offering a splendid view over the Vatican. The road leading to the Hotel winds its way along the crest of the Gianicolo hill, shaded by splendid cluster-pines. It is lined by busts of Garibaldi's crew and a monument of Garibaldi himself, followed by the one reproducing his wife, Anita. |
Along the walk you may admire breathtaking views over Rome: from Villa Medici to St. John Lateran and the Alban Hills. The midday cannon is fired daily below the parapet. Further ahead there is an old stump; once here stood the oak tree beneath which Tasso, famous Italian poet of the Renaissance, used to sit. |
Grand Hotel del Gianicolo is a luxurious and modern hotel provided with every modern comfort: each room is equipped with a Whirlpool bath or shower, colour television with satellite receiver, direct dialling telephone, modem connection, air conditioning, minibar and safe-deposit box. |
Outside the hotel there are two big splendid gardens and a large swimming pool for sunbathing, diving and swimming. The Grand Hotel Gianicolo also makes its facilities available for meetings and ceremonies, always conducted with elegance and in utmost privacy. |
