Eitch Borromini

Large and bright double room equipped with an extra-comfort bed and furnished with an attention to detail. The original flooring makes the environment suggestive and in keeping with the building's century-old history. Perfect and convenient accommodation for couples and business travellers who need more comfort. The room has a private bathroom with shower, hairdryer, and courtesy kit. The view is onto Via Santa Maria dell'Anima that takes its name from the church built here in the fifteenth century and it was formerly known as "via dei Millini", due to the presence of this family in the complex known as Tor Millina. The ancient medieval tower with corbels and Guelph merlons, survived over time and renovated, is visible from some areas of the building that houses us and looking up, right in front of the Eitch Reception

Inside the Superior Suites we find different parts of the original furnishings of the building that houses the Eitch, designed by Francesco Borromini, one of the most important and extravagant artists of the Roman Baroque. Borromini was the architect favoured by Pope Innocent X Pamphilj, who strongly wanted him to his court and entrusted him with the construction of the Innocent College in which we are today. The peculiarity of these suites is that they are different from one another with a unique cut due to the different destinations of the palazzo over the centuries: ecclesiastical school, home for the clergy, library, and convent. Refined, intimate and with carefully chosen furnishings, they have extra-comfortable beds and refined courtesy kits.

Welcoming and luxurious, the Eitch Borromini SPA Suites are generous in space and in the number of rooms from which you can enjoy a breathtaking view of Rome. The furnishings are characterized by warm colors and refined materials, which give an elegant and refined atmosphere. The fine Dedar® fabrics give a touch of sophistication to the interiors, while the oak parquet floor adds warmth and naturalness to the environment, creating an elegant contrast with the precious materials used for the rooms. The custom-made furnishings complete the furnishings, guaranteeing functionality and enjoyment of the rooms. The bathroom is characterized by refined marble coverings, which create an atmosphere of luxury and well-being. Inside, you will find a Steam Room by STARPOOL®, leader in the wellness segment, where you can relax and regenerate.

The Deluxe category rooms all have a story intertwined with the palace's ancient intrigues. They are all different from one another, we invite you to ask our staff about their story. All the basic equipment of the Eitch are in the room, but our customers choose them because they are embellished with some superb floral frescoes, some for the presence of the original panelling, witnesses of centuries of conspiracies of the Roman nobility, others with secret passages that they led out of the building to enter and exit the palace protected from prying eyes. The history of the building is not only linked to the figure of Pope Innocent X Pamphilj, who wanted its construction, but also to Donna Olimpia Maidalchini, popularly known as "La Pimpaccia" who filled the seventeenth-century Roman chronicles with her extravagant personality. Ambitious, she went from her modest origins to the Roman patriciate, marrying Pamphilio, brother of the future Pope. He dedicated his life to Innocent X whom she maneuvered, together with the Holy Court as she pleased, going down in history as "The Papess".

Superbly furnished suites with all the characteristics of the category that precedes them but enhanced by the view of one or more corners of the eternal city. In the rooms, all exceptionally large, there are portions of the original furnishings and original coffered ceilings overlooking the important monuments of the city or the square below. Each Suite therefore offers a personal and different perspective on the Eternal City. Suite 303, called Navona, overlooks Palazzo Madama, one of the historic buildings in Rome, now seat of the Senate of the Republic. The building was built in the 15th century by the Medici family and its name comes from the Duchess Margherita D'Austria, known as "Madama", who established her residence there for a long time. All the windows of the room have a superlative view on the fountains and the square below and sitting on the desk in front of so much beauty, it is easy to understand why the family had decided to build the residence right here and turn the place into the "Island of the Pamphilj”, a great testimony of Baroque architecture and the power of the family. Suite 403 sees the monumental complex of the Vittoriano in Piazza Venezia, part of the magnificent dome of Sant'Agnese in Agone and, above all, a glimpse of the extravagant white spiral dome that architect Borromini - the same who designed the Eitch palace - raised in 1640, struck by lightning 4 times in 32 years. The ceiling of room 501 is asymmetrical and made of wooden beams, because we are in correspondence with the roof of Palazzo Pamphilj. The peculiarity of the suite - for which it resumes its name - is that it has an exclusive view to the north towards the Palace of Justice (commonly called by the Romans "palazzaccio"). Made in white travertine by the Perugian architect Guglielmo Calderini at the end of the 19th century, it is one of the major works created after the proclamation of Rome as the capital of the Kingdom of Italy. The view that can be enjoyed at sunset over the roofs of Rome is unsurpassed, the height of the Eitch palace allows dominating all the surrounding terraces.

An apartment with all the creature comforts. Suite 201, named “Pamphilj” after the family who commissioned Algardi and Borromini to design the building, is in what was once the ancient chapel when the building housed a convent. There is a huge 17th century fireplace in the living area, which has a high, frescoed ceiling. The hallway, walk-in closet and master bedroom are extremely spacious, and the bedroom also has a fireplace and an incredible view of the fountains in Piazza Navona. The marble bathroom has a double sink, a bath and a circular emotional shower, which is set in the space that used to house the spiral staircase leading to the Pamphilj family's library, which left us numerous testimonies and artistic masterpieces which are now on display around the Hotel Eitch Borromini. The furnishings have been meticulously chosen, from the toilet to the desks, the large table in the living room, and the screen with a smart-TV inside that divides the living room into two areas. Finally, there is a small library and a wine cooler for fine wines, which you can sit back and enjoy in the armchairs in front of the crackling fire. During the Roman Baroque period, Palazzo Pamphilj was one of the most important noble residences in Rome, and just like the illustrious guests who stayed here before you, you will feel quite at home.
