Dating back to the XIII century, the hotel's building originally served as a monastery, only converted into a hotel during the late 1700's. The periodic renovation projects over the course of the years have nevertheless, not altered the former convents layout. Rather, rooms that once housed nuns were transformed into comfortable hotel guestrooms. An environment rich in character, the comfort delivered is opulently blended with the style of place that has been treasured, but "lived-in" over the years. Hotel Fontana delivers warm, family-style hospitality that strives to make guests feel as welcomed as they would in their own private home. Guests at the hotel enjoy privileged views of the Trevi Fountain's Baroque splendor and have the opportunity to experience its magic.
