47 Boutique Hotel
Contemporary modernist boutique with a strong curatorial personality — think original memorabilia (a Pelè-signed World Cup shirt on the 3rd floor, Depero Campari prints in the bistro), Technogym wellness area, and a rooftop holding Gambero Rosso's '2 Forks' since 2020.
Book the Suite with Terrace (room 508) well in advance — just two of them and they go fast
Why It Matters
Genuinely exceptional location — the Forum, Circus Maximus, and Palatine Hill are all walkable. The two 5th-floor suites with corner terraces overlooking the Forum Boarium temples are rare in Rome at this price tier. Green Globe certified and sustainably run, with house-produced extra virgin olive oil from their own 4-hectare farm in Tuscia.
The 47 Boutique Hotel sits right in the Forum Boarium — ancient Rome's old sacred commercial district — with actual temple views from the upper floors. It's a 4-star, 61-room property spread across five themed floors, each dedicated to a different obsession: Italian design, fashion, 1960s icons, photography, and the suites floor where two private terraces look directly at the Temple of Portunus and Hercules Victor. The building itself dates to the 1930s, but the interior is very much a 20th-century modernist aesthetic — clean lines, parquet floors, Nespresso machines, Marshall Bluetooth speakers. And it's the only Green Globe-certified hotel in Rome.
Where You'll Stay
10 room types available
Classic
The entry-level room, quiet and facing a side street. Parquet floors, Nespresso machine, Smart TV with SKY, Marshall Bluetooth speaker, Grown Alchemist organic toiletries, marble bathroom with shower. Compact but thoughtfully kitted out. Good for solo travelers or couples who plan to be out most of the day.
20 sqmClassic with Terrace
Same footprint as the Classic but with a private terrace looking over the rooftops of Rome. Side-street facing, so it's quiet. The terrace is a real differentiator at this room size and price point.
20 sqm
Connecting Rooms
An Executive (215 sq ft) and Deluxe Plus (409 sq ft) linked by a private internal corridor — total 624 sq ft sleeping up to 5 guests. The practical family option, offering two separate sleeping areas with shared family space.
58 sqmDeluxe
A meaningful size step up at 323 sq ft, overlooking Piazza della Bocca della Verità. Unique design per the themed floor it sits on. Sleeps up to 3 guests. Marble bathroom, hand-woven bathrobes by Gamba 1918, full in-room amenity package.
30 sqm
Deluxe Plus
One of the better value picks in the hotel: 409 sq ft with a living corner (sofa bed), double-corner windows, and city and temple views from both exposures. Can be connected to an adjacent Executive room via a private corridor to create a family unit sleeping 5.
38 sqmDeluxe with Terrace
Large comfortable room with a private terrace looking out at the Forum Boarium. On the 5th floor, part of the 'Your Terrace on History' collection. Two guests maximum.
27 sqmExecutive
Same size as the Classic but faces the city and the Forum Boarium temples rather than a side street. That view upgrade is worth the step-up. Equipped identically to Classic with the full in-room amenity package.
20 sqmExecutive with Terrace
Bright room with a private terrace and direct views of the ancient temples. Intimate and a strong value if you want outdoor space without going all the way up to a suite.
20 sqmJunior Suite
377 sq ft with double windows and ample space. Contemporary design with the full amenity package. City views and capacity for 3 guests. A proper step up in space without the terrace premium.
35 sqmSuite with Terrace
The top two rooms in the hotel. On the 5th floor, each suite has a separate living area with sofa bed, a bright double bedroom, and a marble bathroom. The private corner terrace — decorated with Mediterranean plants and a lounging setup — has double exposure and direct sightlines to the Temple of Portunus and Hercules Victor. King bed or twin configuration, Grown Alchemist organic toiletries, Gamba 1918 hand-woven bathrobes. Only two of these exist.

On Property
How you'll actually spend your days.
The hotel offers bicycles for rent, and the area is particularly well-suited for cycling — the riverside path along the Tiber and the paths near Circus Maximus are right outside. Reviews consistently mention well-maintained bikes.
Professional MBM Biliardi table available for both American-style pool and carom. A proper billiards room, not a table wedged in a corner.
The concierge organizes private tours with certified guides, including a running tour through the ancient sites ('Archeorunning') as well as standard tours of the Colosseum, Roman Forum, Vatican, and underground catacombs. Full tour details via the hotel's Archeorunning PDF.
A green, plant-filled internal courtyard open all day — from breakfast through the evening. One of the more genuinely relaxing spots in the hotel, completely shielded from city noise.
A 30-seat private cinema with movable seats, modern video systems, and Dolby Surround audio. Available for private bookings, events, and special screenings. Children's programming can be arranged on request through the concierge.
An afternoon tea room service offering petite pastries made by the chef, paired with selections from 'La Via del Tè' — a Florentine tea company operating since 1961. A quiet escape after sightseeing.
