About the Hotel
Historic Palace Accommodations
Eitch Borromini Palazzo Pamphilj occupies a 17th-century palace designed by Francesco Borromini. The 18 rooms and suites feature original architectural details, frescoed ceilings by Pietro da Cortona and Francesco Cozza, and views of Piazza Navona or surrounding streets. All accommodations include Etro bath products, electric kettles with coffee and tea, stocked minibars, complimentary water, laptop-compatible safes, and LED televisions with first-run movies. Some suites have marble bathrooms, fireplaces, and direct views of Bernini's Fountain of the Four Rivers.
Dining with Panoramic Views
Terrazza Borromini restaurant on the fourth floor serves Mediterranean cuisine and Roman classics like cacio e pepe and pasta alla gricia. The restaurant offers indoor seating with frescoed halls and outdoor terrace seating overlooking Piazza Navona. Breakfast includes a buffet with eggs, bacon, cakes, jams, fresh fruits, and cold cuts served with views of the fountain. The rooftop bar on the sixth floor provides 360-degree views of Rome's skyline, including St. Peter's Basilica and the Pantheon.
