ABOUT US

Founded in 2007, Experimental* was born from a desire to redefine hospitality.

At first, a humble cocktail bar tucked away in Paris. As doors opened to new cities, restaurants and wine bars soon followed. Finally hotels, the ultimate measure of hospitality, an experience that weaves each element under one roof.

Over the years, the map has kept expanding, from European capitals like Rome, Paris and London to seasonal escapes such as Comporta, Ibiza and Menorca in summer, and the slopes of Verbier and Val d'Isère in winter. The group also has addresses in Porto, Venice, New York, Biarritz and the Cotswolds.

ABOUT EXPERIMENTAL ROMA

Opened in October 2026 on Via Ludovisi, just off the legendary Via Veneto, Experimental Roma is a vibrant and cinematic destination from Experimental.

Housed in a former bank, the hotel has been transformed by interior designer Rodolphe Parente into a space that embodies the essence of la dolce vita: elegant, timeless, and irresistibly Italian.

The property features 82 rooms, a restaurant, a bar, and a spectacular rooftop with a suspended pool offering breathtaking views over the magnificent cityscape of Rome.

Join Experimental at this exciting new chapter and help shape the hotel's journey as it establishes itself on the Roman hospitality scene, where creativity, passion, and the joy of hospitality come together.
