Corso 281 carries the spirit and soul of its owner Natalino Gisonna, an unconventional entrepreneur who runs his hotel as a passion, not as a business. The building which now houses Corso 281 used to be a bank. The elegant 18th century Palazzo takes up a whole block of Via del Corso, the main street that runs through central Rome, its stately exterior masking an interior of rooms and staircases that Natalino set about transforming into a 5 star luxury hotel. It was a slow process, involving careful research, hard work and long days and nights. Time and dedication saw Natalino bring his vision to life.
