Hotel Abitart

Southern Rome


Changing contemporary-art exhibitions by local Roman artists decorate this stylish 66-room hotel in gentrifying Ostiense. Standard rooms are a riot of bright colours, and themed suites evoke different art periods (cubism, 1970s, pop art) and genres (poetry, photography). Pluses include the hotel restaurant-bar Estrobar with its attractive summertime terrace, and garage parking (€25 per night) right next door.
