Simply Abu Dhabi XXXIV

T o keep your waistline trim during your Italian break, book a fitness art tour with Palmucci, Triathlete and resident personal trainer, who takes guests on running and biking tours of Rome, stopping off at the monum ents and museums along the way whilst ensuring you are burning off enough calories. Meanwhile a signature treatment in the vast underground Rocco Forte Spa and Roman Baths are a must after treading the roads of Rome. Irene Forte’s new organic skincare range is making waves in the Spa and Wellness industry, inspired and infused with natural ingredients from Sicily and handmade in Italy – they smell good enough to eat. If Hotel de Russie is the Grand Dame of Rome, then Hotel De La Ville is its trendy younger sister, which opened its doors this weekend. Asymmetrical, monochrome, highly “Instagrammable” and with an unbeatable location at the top of the Spanish Steps, the hotel is walking distance to the world famous sights, and city’s best boutiques and restaurants. De La Ville’s roof terrace is sure to be the hottest spot in the city this Summer, with its unrivalled sunset views over the domes and spires of the city and St Peter’s Basilica dominating the skyline, illuminated by the sinking sun. 1 0 5 S I M P LY A B U DH A B I
