Rome, May 2026.
Kolbe Hotel Rome has received another accolade: this time it is the ‘Best Destination Hotel in Europe’, recognising not only the excellence of the hotel but also of the city of Rome. The number of visitors of the Eternal City is increasing each year, which places Rome on the list of the most visited cities at European and global level. This large cosmopolitan, world-class destination with its artistic, architectural and cultural history dates back nearly 3,000 years. Ancient ruins such as the Roman Forum and the Colosseum bear witness to the power of the ancient Roman Empire. The prime location of the hotel, facing the archaeological area of Colosseum/Roman Forum/Palatine, is away from the crowds yet very central and close to the major attractions. “Receiving this award is the recognition of our commitment to excellence and as always our gratitude goes to all staff members for their continued efforts in offering great service to our customers. Being named the ‘Best Destination Hotel in Europe’ is a wish come true and we look forward to welcoming everyone visiting Rome in our unique hotel in the historical centre of Rome”, says Carlo Izzo, General Manager of the hotel.
