Cavalieri Hilton

Fodor's Review:

Though the Cavalieri is outside the city center, distance has its advantages, one of them being the magnificent view over Rome (ask for a room facing the city), and another, that elusive element of more central Roman hotels: space. Occupying a vast area atop modern Rome's highest hill, this oasis of good taste often feels more like a resort than a city hotel. Central to its appeal, particularly in summer, is a terraced garden that spreads out from an Olympic-size pool and smart poolside restaurant and caffè; legions of white-clothed cushioned lounge chairs are scattered throughout the greenery, so there's always a place to sun yourself. Inside, spacious rooms, often with large balconies, are done up in striped damask, puffy armchairs, and such Hiltonesque amenities as a "pillow menu"—get comfy, princess. If you can tear yourself away, the city center is just a 15-minute complimentary shuttle bus ride away. The strawberry on top: La Pergola restaurant is renowned as one of Rome's very best. Pros: beautiful bird's-eye view of Rome; shuttle to the city center; three-Michelin-star dining. Cons: you definitely pay for the luxury of staying here—everything is expensive; outside the city center; not all rooms have the view.
