Featuring a spectacular five-metre-high Christmas tree festooned with hundreds of lights, golden baubles and diamond decorations, Hotel de Russie will be dressed up for the festive season this year by fine Swiss jeweller De Grisogono. From the moment guests arrive at the hotel, they’ll be treated to a stunning display, with a festive floral installation right at the entrance starring cascading plants and splendid red and gold adornments.
To celebrate this sparkling partnership, Hotel de Russie has created an exclusive Festive Suite Package, which includes special in-suite treats from De Grisogono as well as a unique experience with the jeweller during your stay in Rome.
Inside the elegant De Grisogono boutique on Via del Babuino, you’ll delve into the history of this prestigious brand and witness first-hand the artisan techniques and magnificent stones used to create their breathtaking pieces, all whilst enjoying a chilled glass of Champagne.

Discover how to make the most of a long weekend in London, Florence and Rome, pairing celebrated landmarks with experiences beyond the city. A few days offers just enough time to settle into a destination’s rhythm, while still leaving space for a thoughtfully chosen day trip further afield.
To understand Baroque, you have to understand its ambition. To fully appreciate it, you have to go to southern Italy. Emerging from the Counter-Reformation in early 17th-century Italy, the movement harnessed drama, ornamentation and light in service of devotion – art designed to engage the senses as much as the intellect.
Some travellers fall in love with a city all at once. Others come to know it gradually, season by season, until they understand not just where to go, but, perhaps more vitally, when. London, with its Royal parks and cobbled courtyards, layers of heritage and history, rewards the latter handsomely.
