Terrace Pantheon Relais
Rome, Italy · Independent · Near Luxury
The street runs down into Largo di Torre Argentina, where four Republican temples stand in a sunken square beside the ruin of Pompey's Curia, the hall where the Senate was sitting on the day Caesar was stabbed. Terrace Pantheon Relais keeps thirty rooms in an early nineteenth-century house a few doors up, some of them under coffered ceilings and old wooden beams, and saves the fifth floor for guests: a terrace and open-air garden over the domes of the centro storico.

About Terrace Pantheon Relais
- The rooftop is the whole point of the name. The fifth floor is guests only, a terrace and open garden that the Roman climate leaves usable for most of the year.
- Several rooms kept the building's original coffered ceilings and exposed wooden beams, which is rare at this price in the streets around the Pantheon.
- The address sits between the Pantheon and the Jewish Ghetto, so two very different Romes are each about five minutes' walk from the front door.
History
Terrace Pantheon Relais occupies an early nineteenth-century building at Via di Torre Argentina 18, in the block between the Pantheon and Largo di Torre Argentina. It opened as a hotel in March 2019 with thirty rooms and suites across several categories, from sixteen-square-metre Classic doubles up to a forty-square-metre suite with a separate sitting room. The conversion kept the height of the old rooms: all of them have high or vaulted ceilings, and the Executive category retained traditional coffered ceilings with exposed wooden beams. The palette throughout is deliberately plain, white, grey and taupe, which leaves the architecture to do the talking.
The property takes its name from the fifth floor, where a terrace and an open-air garden look across the roofs and domes of the historic centre. That level is reserved for guests and stays open year round.
The setting
Via di Torre Argentina links the Pantheon quarter to Largo di Torre Argentina, the sunken square where four temples from Republican Rome sit well below the modern street level alongside the remains of the Curia of Pompey, the hall attached to Pompey's theatre complex where the Senate was meeting when Caesar was killed. The site is also Rome's best-known colony of stray cats. From the door the Pantheon is a few minutes north, Piazza Navona and the church of Sant'Ignazio about the same, and the Jewish Ghetto and Portico d'Ottavia lie just south across Via Arenula, which makes this one of the shortest walks in the city between imperial ruins, baroque squares and Roman-Jewish cooking. Termini station is roughly fifteen minutes away by public transport.
