About the Hotel Design Award
The prestigious industry award "Hotel Design Award" targets hotels that were completed and opened in Europe within the last one and a half years before the 196+ forum Milan. The prize goes to a hotel which stands out from among its competitors in terms of architecture, design and innovation, no matter whether it is a luxury or a budget hotel, a chain hotel or privately managed, short or long stay, city hotel or holiday resort. 196+ forum Milan regards a homogeneous combination of all the individual aspects to form a winning hotel concept.
The main criteria are:
- originality of the accommodation concept,
- architectural quality (building and façade),
- integration into the project’s surroundings,
- interior design

Hotel Design Award 2024
Congratulations to the Rome EDITION for winning the Hotel Design Award 2024!
Rigor, essentiality and linearity are the guidelines of both the public and the private spaces of The Rome Edition. Both in the spatial organization and in the choice of materials, a soft and non-invasive approach emphasizes the original architectural identity. With spectacular 7 meter high ceilings, the use of travertine, bronze and teak, accentuating fabrics and a lush courtyard/restaurant with over 400 plants and a cascade of greenery on the façade, the hotel unfolds like the acts in an opera.
