The Hotel Barocco overlooks Romes Piazza Barberini, the fine square dominated by Berninis wonderful baroque fountain of the sea-god Triton. This intimate and charming hotel is named after the architectural style that inspired some of the most breathtaking squares and monuments in the Eternal City. The fountain is a stones throw from the hotel, so close in fact that from some of the rooms guests can see the tiny bees - a symbol of the Barberini family - sculpted on the dolphins.The entrance to the hotel is in Via della Purificazione, a quiet street off the square, and leads into an elegant foyer. The sofas in the reception area are covered in beige and orange-striped damask. There are oriental rugs on the floor and trompe loeil scenes of classical Rome on the walls. The air is even softly fragranced, in keeping with the philosophy of the Five Senses Hotels chain. This idea was first conceived three years ago by Franco Caruso the hotels manager since 1991.
