original statues gracing the entrance, vibrant red walls reminiscent of traditional Roman homes, an exquisite collection of 19th-century plates and objets d’art from the Valadier era, wallpaper depicting an enchanting Italian garden, and a terracotta cabochon floor that establishes a tangible link between the suite, the building and the city of Rome,” explains
