There is a new trend that has infected the best hotels, in Rome and beyond: they have become a reference in the world of catering, and not only for guests. This is confirmed by a survey conducted by Probe Observatory in 2023, which showed that 74% of respondents go to have lunch in hotels in their city of residence not only for convivial occasions, but also simply to spend a weekend together, in an original and pleasant way, with family or friends.
Travel through the flavors of the Eternal City
This is a trend that, in recent years, has found a response in the choice of different hotel chains to invest in the sector, thus encouraging customers, and not only, to spend unique moments in the hotel's bars and restaurants. This is the case of DoubleTree by Hilton Rome Montian elegant 4-star structure of the HNH Hospitality group, in the historic centre of Rome, which has made catering one of its strong points.
Located in the emblematic Monti district, the DoubleTree by Hilton Rome Monti it is the ideal address to discover the Eternal City. Its position is truly enviable: a few minutes walk from Piazza Vittorio and Termini Station, the Church of San Pietro in Vincoli and the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, the Domus Aurea and the National Roman Museum. However, the city centre location is not the only strong point. In fact, guests are also seduced by the sophisticated and rich offer of the catering area.
