Terrazza dei papi
Terrazza dei Papi is a restaurant located on a rooftop terrace in the heart of Rome with expansive views across the city. The venue features open-air seating, floor-to-ceiling windows, and an adjoining Sky Bar where visitors can observe Rome's domes and historic architecture from above.
The restaurant is housed within a hotel building that takes advantage of its location near the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore. The terrace was developed to capitalize on this unique vantage point over Rome and connect visitors to the city's historic landmarks.
The name reflects its proximity to the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, a papal church. The terrace embodies Italian food culture through simple preparations that honor fresh local ingredients and regional cooking traditions.
The terrace is open daily in the evening hours, with the Sky Bar operating from late afternoon until late at night. The location is central and easily accessible by public transport, particularly from other major attractions like the Colosseum and Trevi Fountain.
The venue includes a hookah lounge area where visitors can relax after dining, an uncommon feature for a Rome rooftop restaurant. This offers an alternative way to spend the evening while taking in the city lights from above.
