Simultaneously, Via Veneto is attracting high-end hospitality investment:
- The Hotel Majestic—a neo-classical jewel built in 1889—has secured €111 million in funding to be transformed into the ultra-luxury Baccarat Hotel Rome, scheduled to open in late 2026. It will feature 87 bespoke rooms, a panoramic rooftop bar, and a terraced restaurant.
- The InterContinental Rome Ambasciatori Palace, a neoclassical landmark on Via Veneto, was recently relaunched following a major renovation. Now a five-star icon with 160 rooms, a rooftop bar, and sophisticated dining experiences, it anchors the street’s upscale offering.
