The Penthouse Suite, situated on the 7th floor of the hotel, epitomizes the extravagant splendor of the Hotel Hassler, its living and dining rooms brimming with antique pieces, including a desk from the late 18th century, Louis XV chairs, immense Venetian mirrors, hand-cut crystal chandeliers and priceless original paintings by pupils of the schools of Tintoretto and Caravaggio.
