"The 89-room Helvetia & Bristol has a distinct sense of place--set in a 19th-century townhouse, it’s just a three-minute walk from Piazza della Repubblica at the heart of the city. A five-year complete renovation finishes this year, including work on the 1,000-square-foot two-bedroom Presidential Suite Bristol, with four-poster beds and museum-quality bronze lamps, sculptures, and antique mirrors." - Annie Fitzsimmons
