Established in 1889, the Hotel Majestic has always been popular with an elite clientèle who wish to experience Rome’s Dolce Vita.

The Hotel Majestic was the first hotel that was built on the via Veneto. It was inaugurated in 1889. Previous to the construction of the via Veneto, this neighbourhood was known as the Villa Ludovisi. The building where the hotel was to be created is part of the first belvedere of the new street cut through the Cappucini friars' garden.

The view on Piazza Barberini was achieved by carving the height overlooked by the conventual church of Saint Isidoro and by the Villa Boncompagni. Thus, the designer Gaetano Koch, known as the prince of architects of those times, was forced to give the building that unique piano-like layout which characterises its plan. The architectural design and the modern features of the Hotel Majestic reveal its intent to stand out, from the start, as the leader in this town's accommodation of that time. The hotels fame and fortune reached its peak during the Twenties, when high-society members used to choose this hotel for their stay in Rome. At The Majestic, royal prince & princess and show biz stars could find luxurious details together with the comforts of progress in addition to the thrill of being in a town of ancient civilisation. Real antique objects decorated rooms and suites, while lounges showed the richest among tapestries and furniture. The hotel could also be rightfully proud of its main halls. Artist Domenico Bruschi from Perugia frescoed the largest, located on the 1st floor, and named after musician Giuseppe Verdi, in the year 1900. Allegorical scenes depict the glory of the ancient Rome and that of the Italian royal family, La Casa Savoia. In this hotel and in alternative to common hotel cuisine of those days, the Chefs who revealed their preference for local cookery and wines played a remarkable role. All those local specialities were however presented with the most refined display, on fine linen, china, crystals and tableware. After the Sixties, the hotel became the scenery of Fellini's Dolce Vita for moviegoers all over the world. 1990 restoration and technical upgrades
