Hotel Hassler Roma's Imago Restaurant Receives 1st Michelin Star
The Michelin Guide is Europe's oldest and best-known hotel and restaurant guide, awarding the Michelin stars according to several categories, including the mastery of flavor and cooking and the "personality" of the cuisine.

"We are truly very happy," says Roberto E. Wirth, the Hassler Roma's owner and General Manager. "This rewards our efforts and encourages us to do more and better."

Imago's Chef Francesco Apreda offers unique dishes embodying traditional flavors of Italian and Roman cuisine, enhanced by a measured touch of originality and the freshest seasonal ingredients all served overlooking Rome's historic center.

Hotel Hassler Roma is set atop the Spanish Steps and featuring a panoramic view of the entire city, the Hassler Roma has been Rome's five-star lodging of choice for the world's elite for more than a century. Each of the 82 rooms and 13 suites are individually designed and adorned in authentic Italian accents. Highlights include the panoramic rooftop restaurant, Imago, which recently underwent a multi-million dollar renovation, and the neighboring, Hassler-owned International Wine Academy of Roma which offers wine classes with world-renowned sommeliers.
