Hotel de Rome in Berlin Mitte

Rocco Forte Hotel de Rome


 

Those who like it a little more exclusive can round off this Italian journey with a Hugo de Rome on the roof terrace of Hotel de Rome. The spacious terrace offers a breathtaking view over Berlin! The historic building was the headquarters of the Dresdener Bank until 1945. Therefore, if possible, you should take a look into the former jewellery vault in the basement. Today, the De Rome Spa is located there, but the former safe deposit boxes can still be admired. If you are still hungry, you could visit their restaurant La Banca in the beautiful green courtyard and you enjoy Italian cuisine. The menu changes weekly. If you want to come back, you can take advantage of their business lunch including Italian coffee.
