Save to favouritesPrintMailLa Residenza NapoleoneIf you can drag your eyes away from the mouthwatering boutique fronts of Rome's Via Condotti for a moment, you'll see behind you some large and private wooden gates. They may not gleam and glitter like the window displays, but what lies behind them is dazzling. These doors are a portal into a former, more splendid age. Doric colonnades lined with statues lead up to a wing of the 16th-century Palazzo Ruspoli. Above the all-marble staircase, imperial busts gaze onto fabulous antiques, and rare Gobelin tapestries rub shoulders with 500-year-old oil paintings (one of which artfully conceals a cinema screen). This is where Emperor Napoleon III and his mother, the former Queen of Holland, lived. Now it's home to the welcoming and unpretentious Princess Letizia Ruspoli, who has made two [r:IT041:apartments] available to the select few. If you have always wanted to stay somewhere fit for a king - or an emperor - this is your chance.
