European Vacations

The Aldrovandi Palace Hotel is situated in the most exclusive area of historic Rome, between the Villa Borghese Gardens and the Borghese Gallery and within easy proximity of the Spanish Steps and Via Veneto. This stately 19th century residence, now a privately
managed grand hotel, is surrounded in beautiful subtropical gardens.
The Aldrovandi Palace has a total of guest bedrooms and suites all individually furnished in accordance with the original 19th century splendour of the hotel building, featuring authentic pieces of antique furniture and only the most luxurious of fabrics. The rooms afford delightful views of either the hotel gardens, the Villa Borghese Park, or the attractive centuries-old town houses which distinguish the neighborhood.



The hotel boasts eight magnificent conference and banquet halls for 10 to 300 people, making the Aldrovandi Palace a favorite venue for the most important business and social events in Rome. The largest of the hotel's function rooms, the Sala Cabrini, has provided the elegant setting for an infinite number of high profile weddings, press conferences and fashion shows held in Italy's capital city. The banqueting services of the Aldrovandi Palace Hotel are, without doubt, some of the finest in Rome.

Alpen palace Deluxe Hotel & Spa Resort is located in the mountains of the Valle Aurina, an enchanting valley in Trentino Alto Adige. Situated in the picturesque little town of San Giovanni, the hotel provides the perfect mountain retreat, both in the summer and winter season.
In the area surrounding San Giovanni there are more than eight hundred castles and fortresses and a number of attractive towns including Campo Tures and Predoi. The elegant small town of Brunico is situated in the neighbouring Val Pusteria.
