The First Musica

Harmonic Roman hideaway.
Overlooking the Tiber River in Rome’s exclusive Prati district, The First Musica is a bold, design-forward hotel where music and art set the tone. This modern palazzo offers a stylish base just minutes from Piazza del Popolo and a short walk from the Spanish Steps.
Insider Tip

To experience the quieter side of the Eternal City, the concierge can arrange a morning walk along the riverbank followed by an espresso at a hidden café just steps away.

Where You’re Staying

The minimalist hotel embraces an elegant color palette offset by floor-to-ceiling windows. The 24 guest rooms are accented with rich textures, warm wood, and gold accents. Bathrooms feature Calacatta marble walk-in rain showers. Each room pays tribute to a musical artist and includes a vinyl record with a QR code linking to a curated playlist.

Where to Dine

ALTO, spread over multiple floors including the rooftop, serves creative Italian dishes with a focus on seafood. As the sun sets, head to the Cocktail Bar to toast the view with small plates and dessert.

Where to Relax

Unwind in the privacy of your own room or talk a stroll by the Tiber River.

What to Do

The First Musica sets the tone with curated playlists and musical details throughout the hotel. Browse the in-house art collection or attend a rooftop event with live music. Nearby, stroll through Prati’s historic streets, cross the Tiber to visit Museo dell’Ara Pacis, or shop designer boutiques along Via Cola di Rienzo.
