Irene Forte Spa at Hotel de la Ville is the subterranean wellness facility of Rocco Forte's Rome hotel near the Spanish Steps. The operator presents it as a contemporary interpretation of Roman bathing, combining thermal spaces, treatment rooms, skincare and fitness. It is distinct from the Irene Forte Spa at Hotel de Russie, another Rocco Forte property in Rome.
The current facility list includes five treatment rooms, with a double suite and private Rasul, plus a thermal area with salt room, sauna, steam room, ice fountain, Kneipp foot baths and hydro pool. A relaxation lounge uses infrared loungers. Guests should confirm which areas are included with a treatment, day pass or hotel stay because access and time limits differ by booking.
The treatment programme includes facials, body treatments, massage, longer rituals and beauty services. Irene Forte Skincare uses botanicals associated with the group's Verdura Resort in Sicily alongside modern formulations and device-led options. Current menus also list Endosphères and full-body cryotherapy. These are wellness and cosmetic services rather than medical care; claims, suitability and contraindications should be discussed before booking.
The double suite supports treatments for two and a private Rasul experience. Couples should verify whether their chosen ritual is simultaneous, whether the Rasul is included, and how changing and relaxation time are counted. Day-spa products can bundle a treatment with thermal access, lunch or a drink, while a standalone day pass can carry a fixed access window.
A Technogym-equipped fitness area complements the spa, with personal training, private yoga and private Pilates. Fitness services have their own booking and operating arrangements. Anyone combining cryotherapy, vigorous exercise, heat and massage should ask staff about sequencing and recovery.
The spa currently publishes daily hours from 10:00 to 20:00, while fitness opens earlier. Advance booking is recommended. Confirm the appointment, treatment duration, facility access, final price, cancellation deadline, arrival time and any deposit. The current brochure states that late arrival reduces treatment time and that cancellations within the stated window can be charged in full.
The operator advises guests to disclose medical conditions and allergies and does not recommend treatment during the first trimester of pregnancy. Guests under 16 must be accompanied by an adult in the treatment room under the current brochure policy. Wet-area and day-pass age rules should also be confirmed separately.
Irene Forte Spas publish adapted therapies delivered through trained practitioners for people living with or recovering from cancer. Eligibility and individual suitability still require a direct consultation; directory text cannot replace clinical advice. Guests with reduced sensation, acute injury, recent surgery or cardiovascular concerns should be especially careful with heat and cryotherapy.
For accessibility, ask about the step-free route to the underground spa, accessible changing, treatment-table transfers, hydro-pool entry and assistance in the thermal area. Guests needing lower fragrance, reduced sound or a support person should arrange this before arrival.
The verified address is Via Sistina 69, 00187 Rome, Italy. The spa publishes +39 06 9779 3850 and [email protected] for appointments.
The retained archive image shows a massage treatment in an interior consistent with the Irene Forte Spa record, but its photographer, capture date and reuse licence are not documented in the migrated CMS. Five more current, exact and rights-cleared photographs are required. Official images were not copied without permission.
Information was checked on 14 August 2026 against current Rocco Forte spa, fitness, brand-wellness and spa-brochure sources. Treatments, prices, hours, access and policies should be reconfirmed before booking.
