About us

Experimental introduced cocktail bar culture in Paris in 2007 and has since developed boutique hotels and innovative bars across Europe and beyond. The group operates in major cities such as Rome, Paris and London, as well as seasonal destinations like Comporta, Ibiza and Menorca, plus locations including Porto, Venice, New York, Biarritz and the Cotswolds. Each venue combines design, creativity and high-quality service, and new openings are planned.

About Experimental Roma

Experimental Roma will open in October 2026 on Via Ludovisi, near Via Veneto. The hotel, housed in a former bank and redesigned by Rodolphe Parente, celebrates la dolce vita with an elegant and timeless Italian style. The property will include 82 rooms, a restaurant, a bar and a rooftop with a suspended pool offering spectacular views over Rome.
