Location | Hotel Orazio Palace Rome
Location
Hotel Orazio Palace Rome sits in Prati, one of Rome’s most desirable and relaxed central neighbourhoods. The area is known for its wide boulevards, handsome 19th-century buildings, and the popular shopping street Via Cola di Rienzo, just a short stroll away.
You’re well placed for both sides of the city: cross the river into the historic centre for atmospheric piazzas and ancient sites, or wander towards Vatican City for St Peter’s Basilica and the Museums. Despite the central location, Prati feels a little calmer than the streets around Termini or the Spanish Steps, with plenty of local trattorias and wine bars for low-key evenings.

Ozio Restaurant & Rooftop Bar
Wake up to Rome’s skyline at the hotel’s signature Ozio Restaurant, an à la carte venue serving Italian-inspired breakfasts on the panoramic roof terrace. Expect freshly baked pastries, cold cuts, cheeses and barista-style coffee to fuel a day’s sightseeing.
As evening falls, the rooftop transforms into a sophisticated bar and dining space with atmospheric lighting and wide-open city views – a perfect setting for aperitivo and creative cocktails. A smart-casual dress code may apply; beachwear is not permitted.
The rooftop restaurant and bar are typically open to in-house guests in the early evening, with later sittings subject to reservation and availability. Details, opening hours and access rules can change by season, so check with reception on arrival.
Families are catered for with a kids’ menu, and the Bed & Breakfast basis gives you complete freedom to explore Rome’s trattorias and enotecas for lunch and dinner.
Pool Areas and Beach
There is no pool at Hotel Orazio Palace Rome – this is very much a city boutique base designed around urban exploring, gastronomy and rooftop views rather than resort-style facilities.

If you’re craving a dip, concierge can advise on nearby spas or day passes to external pools (subject to local availability and charges).
