The Residenza di Ripetta is located in the heart of the historic center of Rome, an area where cultural pleasures are found at every corner.

A few steps from its  entrance, the amazing neoclassical architecture of Piazza del Popolo welcomes art lovers and invites them to enter the Basilica of Santa Maria del Popolo, an Augustinian church that houses works by Caravaggio, Pinturicchio and Bernini.

On the other side of the hotel there is the fashion district of Rome, a vibrant network of streets with luxury boutiques of the most important and well-known fashion brands in the world.

In the 1960s the hotel was inaugurated, housed in a superb architectural complex, which for centuries was one of the main conservatories for “spinsters” in the city: the Conservatory of Divine Providence.

The restoration was commissioned to Luigi Moretti, one of the most famous Italian architects of the twentieth century; transformed a boarding school for girls into an innovative-looking building, preserving the original floor plan and introducing lines and curves into the interior spaces.
