Donna Camilla Savelli

96 Rooms & Suites | Historic Baroque Monastery | Panoramic Gardens & City Views

A Baroque Sanctuary in the Heart of Trastevere

Tucked away in the winding, cobbled alleys of Trastevere—Rome’s most soulful and storied neighborhood—Donna Camilla Savelli is a rare gem that marries sacred history with refined hospitality. Originally built in the 17th century as a convent for noblewomen, the building was masterfully designed by Francesco Borromini, one of the great architects of the Roman Baroque.

Today, it stands as a tranquil retreat where centuries-old serenity meets contemporary elegance.

From its ivy-clad façade to its peaceful cloisters and panoramic rooftop terrace, the hotel offers guests a unique opportunity to experience Rome from a place of quiet reflection and timeless beauty. Whether you're sipping espresso beneath citrus trees or watching the sunset over Janiculum Hill, Donna Camilla Savelli invites you to slow down and savor the Eternal City.
