## About the hotel
Orient Express La Minerva opened in April 2025 on Piazza della Minerva, a three minute walk from the Pantheon, as the first hotel to carry the Orient Express name. Built in 1620 as the residence of the Portuguese Fonseca family before becoming one of Rome's grand hotels in 1811, the building has been reworked by French Mexican architect Hugo Toro in an Art Deco register drawn from the brand's golden age of travel. It earns its place through this pairing of a historic Roman palazzo with the storied Orient Express name.
