...floors below cracks in the walls and a palette of pale blues golds periwinkles and pinks then added sparingly sculptural fittings and findings from Petrucci s contemporary art collection
The dusty exterior of the hotel leads to a series of courtyards and rooms beyond.
Original frescoed ceilings, carefully restored, make for a colorful backdrop to clean-lined furniture and contemporary art..
The symmetrical living room in the hotel’s Suite Apartment has eggshell-blue walls, an unexpected periwinkle trim, original mosaic floors, and sculptural furnishings.
Old meets new in the newly fitted Suite Apartment.
In another suite, original textured walls, left bare, mixes with a clean-lined open wardrobe.
A particularly ornate hallway, with gold-hued frescoes and mirrors, leads to one of the suite’s pale guest rooms.
Many of the rooms feature light boxes by the artist Simon D’Exea.
A wall-mounted reading lamp.
A suite bedroom in hues of pale blue and persimmon.
The Suite Apartment features a simple kitchen, with tiled countertops and backsplash and skirted storage.
A small breakfast area—and glass-fronted storage—in the kitchen.
Another guest bedroom is left almost completely undressed so that the bones—a dramatic vaulted ceilings and double doors painted entirely in yellow—are the focus.

The bathroom in a Royal Junior Suite has the feel of an ancient bath.
The team installed a modern-meets-ancient rain shower, with water falling from “an archaic source of water” into a lipped basin by the Milan-based artist Andrea Sala.
The villa’s chef serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, all made from ingredients from local farms, in a clean-lined kitchen overlooking the swimming pool.
Utilitarian pots and pans become a practical display when hung from s-hooks.
Each of the rooms has a view outside—to the interconnected courtyards or swimming pool.
The pool, for keeping cool in the Italian heat.
