Il Palazetto

The al fresco wine bar on the fifth floor of Il Palazetto hotel (the sister property of the Hotel Hassler) has a lofty location at the top of the Spanish Steps, with perfect people-watching views of the bustling staircase. Wine and cocktails are priced according to this coveted location, but if you’re willing to splurge, it’s a memorable perch for a sunset aperitivo.
