Hotel Vannucci, which reopened in January 2020 after a two-year renovation, was subsequently closed down by the COVID-19 pandemic, reopening again in June. Bought in 2018 by Roberto Wirth, fourth-generation owner of the Hassler in Rome, the property was gutted and transformed into a 30-room 21st-century boutique hotel.
