Amenities
Palazzo Cardinal Cesi is an historical building which stands on St. Peters Square and is owned by the Generalate of the Salvatorians. The hotel is maintained to the highest standards of first class accommodations, making the whole environment as welcoming and pleasant as a private home. It was built in 1400 and stands on the ancient Via Cornelia that led to the tomb of St. Peter and to the house of Seneca, and for centuries it was owned by leading Roman families, including the Cesi Family, many of whose members became lawyers, senators, bishops and cardinals. In 1600 the Palace was bought by Cardinal Pierdonato Cesi who had it restructured and refurbished, turning it into an antiques and art museum, and installing a well endowed library. Today, the Generalate of the Salvatorians has converted part of the building into a hotel, to create a meeting point for all those who wish to relax and to enrich their mind as well as their spirit.
