Expected to debut in summer 2022, Nobu Hotel and Restaurant Roma is a

collaboration between Carlo Acampora, Chairman and CEO Grand Hotel Via Veneto,

Barberini, Trevi Fountain, and Piazza di Spagna, Nobu Hotel Roma is the union

of two 19th Century buildings combined to create a modern masterpiece that

energized living spaces, Nobu Hotel Roma will house 122 guest rooms and suites,

including a 500sqm Nobu Suite, a spectacular green-rooftop terrace, indoor and

outdoor meeting space, a full-service city spa, state-of-the-art fitness

center, a Nobu Restaurant offering 24-hour in-room dining and an exclusive club

lounge for enjoying world-class music. Nobu Hotel and Restaurant Roma will be

focused on the guest experience with an eco-friendly and sustainable approach.

Carlo Acampora, Chairman and CEO Grand Hotel Via Veneto states, "Nobu's

incredible dedication, Meir's passion, Bob's vision, and his boundless love for

Italy, combined with the extraordinary leadership of Trevor and Struan, and the

expertise of the entire management team will make this opening exciting and

unique in the global hotel industry. I am deeply honored to have Nobu as a

partner because we share the same values of quality, service, and excellence.

And here today, I cannot hide my love for Japan and for its exceptional culture

of hospitality. So, I am very pleased to have opened the doors of the Eternal

City to the first Nobu Hotel in Italy. The extraordinary experience that Nobu

Roma will offer is what Romans and international tourists deeply need and we

are all aware of the great responsibility that awaits us towards our future

guests."

Nobu Matsuhisa, Robert De Niro, and Meir Teper state, "Rome is the gastronomic

hub of the world and the ideal location for the Nobu brand. We are pleased to

be partnering with Carlo Acampora on this exciting project and to bring the

famous Nobu cuisine to the residents of Rome as well as visitors from around

the world. We share many values with Carlo, especially on the significance of

hospitality. Rome is an extraordinary mix of high culture, the arts, fashion,

and historic architecture. And so, we are honored now to be able to be a part

of the Eternal City through this thrilling opening"

Trevor Horwell, Chief Executive Officer Nobu Hospitality comments,

"Partnerships and enduring relationships take time and investment and today our

perseverance has been rewarded. On a personal level, I am very proud and

excited to welcome our new alliance with Carlo. Not only do his philosophies

and values closely match our own, but we share the same dreams and aspirations

to create something extraordinary that will leave a positive impression on the

Rome community as a whole."
