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.

Vivacious, glamorous, powerful. Few figures encapsulate the effortless grandeur of the Belle Époque quite like Donna Franca, our Sicilian muse. Famed for her petite frame, thick dark hair and an exquisite fashion sense that has endured for over a century, Franca was the epitome of an era that placed beauty and high fashion at its forefront.
The sound comes first - the soft thud of a well-struck ball, rising into a clear blue Sicilian sky. Ahead, fairways unfold in undulating greens towards the blue calm of the Mediterranean. The air is warm, perfumed with orange blossom and sea salt. There’s no rush, only a meditative rhythm: swing, step, breathe and repeat, interrupted only by the sound of waves.
With heritage placed firmly in its heart, it is little wonder that Rocco Forte Hotels chose to partner with FAI. Both share a deep commitment to Italian ancestry, inviting you to slow down and uncover the deeper meaning behind the places you visit.
