Bar & Restaurant
As with all Rocco Forte hotels, the Hotel de Russie focuses on delivering good food in a great atmosphere, which attracts both our hotel guests and the local community, rather than simply being seen as an extension of the hotel.

The most stunning feature of the hotel is its extensive, terraced gardens. Our guests will be able to enjoy a gentle stroll in the gardens or fine alfresco dining in a tranquil oasis amidst the bustle of central Rome. The restaurant also presents fantastic opportunities for indoor and open-air receptions.

The gourmet Mediterranean cuisine will delight our guests. In keeping with our objectives to pick only the best chefs to work for us, we appointed celebrated Chef Nazzareno Menghini. He places emphasis on using local produce and the very best Italian ingredients to produce a sumptuous menu.

The Chef

The charming setting of the 'Secret Garden' is today the domain of Nazzareno Menghini, Executive Chef of the hotel's restaurant, Le Jardin du Russie. The restaurant offers a classic Italian gastronomic experience. Nazzareno's dishes are colourful and fragrant, inspired by the ingredients and the aromatic smells of the Mediterranean. His cooking is finely balanced, always using fresh, Italian seasonal produce. In particular, many of his dishes include fish. His style, at times surprisingly simple, never loses sight of the primary ingredient being used but always offering interesting interpretations of well-known dishes.

Stravinskij Bar
The Stravinskij Bar has an extensive selection of refreshments and Roman delicacies if you would prefer something lighter.
For lunch, we offer a delicious buffet whereby you can eat in the sunshine; in the afternoon, traditional tea is served; or for the evening, why not savour one of our extensive martini cocktails such as the 'De Russie Martini', served with caviar, whilst enjoying our live music in the Russie gardens.

Rooms

Hanging on the walls of the rooms there are none of the usual reproductions of period prints typical of grand hotels (in Rome as elsewhere), but only 'genuine', signed photography (in itself a genre made to be reproduced...), with large colour photographs of flowers by the great photographer Robert Mapplethorpe. The walls, which are deliberately just painted, are all in very delicate and restful pastel hues, as is the upholstery. There are various types of bathroom, but they are all in marble or marble mosaic. The bathroom designs range from the classical to the contemporary, but in all cases the most classical materials are used. Easy Connect broadband service to the internet is offered from every guest room.

 
The Hotel de Russie Spa offers:
• Health Club with hydropool
• Jacuzzi
• Sauna
• Turkish steam bath
• Beauty treatments
• Gymnasium

Guest Comments

• It is in a very good location and we were treated very well by all the staff (and were upgraded to a junior suite which was lovely with a great view of the courtyard).The bar here is excellent and having a drink in the courtyard on a warm Rome summer evening is lovely. We will most definitely stay here again when we are next in Rome.

• This hotel could not have been more amazing. The food was incredible and the
placing of the hotel could not have been better. The rooms were beautiful and overlooking roof tops and looking down cool alleyways. The front desk was extremely helpful from awesome places to elegant restaurants. The hotel was also clean and the service was great.

• A strong local quality. Beyond all the luxe features common to a five-star hotel, the unique décor, the outstanding table, and the irrepressible staff, the Hotel de Russie gives its guests something else - an omnipresent feeling of being in the Eternal City where past, present and future merge. That alone can make a stay unforgettable.

• It does not get much better than the Hotel de Russie.'
