Fodor's Review:

The Art does its best to bring Rome into the 21st century, with a dedication to contemporary (you guessed it) art and design that is unusual in the Eternal City. Just the place for an Italian Vogue fashion shoot, the public areas are spacious and spectacular, with smooth concrete and high white arches contrasting starkly with glossy neo-'60s furnishings. You'll think you've wandered into a SoHo art gallery in the lobby, which then opens up to the glossy white reception area. The jewel is the Crystal Bar, set in an old chapel, with gilded panels in Raphaelesque style and topped off with a glittering chandelier. Guest rooms—color-coordinated, inexplicably, with hallways—are a more standard upper-middle contemporary style, with sleek wood headboards, puffy white comforters, and hi-speed Internet connection. Pros: feels like you've checked into an ultra-hip art gallery; helpful and pleasant staff; comfortable beds. Cons: the glass floors are noisy at night; the courtyard bar crowd may keep you awake; the a/c is sometimes temperamental.
