Best hotels in Italy

Hotel Villa Cimbrone is one of the most prestigious Hotels de Charme in the entire Mediterranean. The splendour and ambience of yesteryear permeate this 12th-century residence. The Vuilleumier family, with its generations of experience in the hotel industry, preserves and protects the original architectural and decorative features.

One of the most iconic 5-star hotels in Venice, a magical and secret place in the heart of the Santa Croce district, which tells a centuries-long story, beginning when—under the name Palazzo Bacchini delle Palme—it was a former private residence.

The soul of the palace lies in its very name, a portmanteau of the words "Venice" and "Art," and it encapsulates the charm and essence of the history of this city, an emblem of world art since the Renaissance.

Step back in time at this exquisitely restored 15th-century villa, once the countryside escape of Florence's illustrious Corsini family. The dramatic Tuscan-style loggia that dominates the façade sets the tone for what awaits inside - an elegant boutique retreat that somehow manages to feel like the family home it once was. Wander through terracotta-tiled hallways to the central drawing room, where an honesty bar invites you to pour yourself a Campari spritz before dinner. The charming blue and white breakfast room opens onto a sun-drenched terrace, while beyond, a refreshing swimming pool offers respite from the Tuscan heat with views across undulating olive groves and vineyard-stitched hillsides. This is la dolce vita at its most authentic.

It is a farm, first and foremost, run by a family who pledge themselves to an enduring care for the land, with a true passion for hospitality and the dream of a place to share with friends and travellers, with an authentic love and respect for the Sicilian countryside.

With its picturesque view of the sea, the hotel is located a short distance from Amalfi town centre and is perfectly positioned for visiting nearby towns such as Positano, Ravello, Sorrento, Capri, Pompeii and Herculaneum and Naples

A jewel overlooking the lagoon: Ca' di Dio is a five-star hotel in the heart of Venice, where elegance, history, and design blend in perfect harmony. Built in 1272, today it is an exclusive residence, rediscovered thanks to Patricia Urquiola's project.

Step back to 1765 as you cross the threshold of this splendid boutique hotel, once the stately residence of a Bourbon-era judge who later became a Marquis. Built during Palermo's renaissance when the city was flourishing with new energy and ambition, the palazzo has retained its aristocratic bones while embracing contemporary luxury. Here, velvets and cushions mingle with shaved cotton linens in a masterful display of refined elegance. The intimate scale belies the grandeur of the building's heritage, creating a hideaway that feels both exclusive and welcoming. You're perfectly positioned in the bustling heart of the city, with its vibrant markets, Norman architecture and Arab influences just waiting to be explored.

Staying at Hotel Onda Verde means immersing yourself in the colours and scents of the Amalfi Coast, fascinated by the beautiful nature and getting lost in a glowing sunset over the sea.

Praiano sits roughly seven kilometres from both Positano and Amalfi, but stays mercifully out of their crowds. Hotel Onda Verde is built into the cliff here — five former villas, 25 sea-view rooms with hand-painted Vietri tiles, and a pool tucked among terraced gardens. The Milano family runs it, and it shows in the welcome. A path drops to La Praia's pebble beach below, and a small jetty makes water taxis to Positano and Capri delightfully easy.
