That something is moving in Rome is there for all to see, it may be the Jubilee, it may be the European Recovery Plan, it may be Mayor Gualtieri's extraordinary powers, it may even be the fact that Rome is still an affordable city, price-wise, compared to other major European capitals now at the level of New York.

The fact is that this opportunity-creating change in Rome has also been noticed by investors. In fact, especially in the real estate sector, specifically hotel real estate and even more specifically luxury hotel real estate, Rome is making great strides.

This is shown by a survey by Scenari Immobiliari, Rome is climbing positions as competitiveness according to industry experts, investors, lending institutions, real estate companies, and investment fund managers. This target considers the capital more attractive than all other European cities for investment, higher only Paris.

Rome is above Madrid, London and Lisbon, gaining two positions since 2021 when it was fourth. The survey photographs the city as a place with a "solid socio-economic context" thanks to those who live there, commuters, those who come to live there by choice, off-site students and city users.

Urban regeneration through a new vision for the city, more livable and with better services, is expected in the coming years, making it a mouthwatering one for investors who see its potential and a prosperous outlook in the next five years.
