Spring House Hotel Rome Vatican, Tapestry
Collection by Hilton
Located in the Italian capital just metres away
from the Vatican Museum, Spring House Hotel Rome Vatican, Tapestry Collection
by Hilton, will be Hilton’s second Tapestry Collection by Hilton hotel in Rome,
following the opening of Cosmopolita Hotel Rome, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, in
2022. With some of Italy’s most notable attractions a short walk away,
including Saint Peter’s Basilica and the Sistine Chapel, the beautifully
situated hotel will feature a restaurant and bar, wellness area, outdoor
terrace and 73 contemporary guest rooms. Anticipated to be completed in early
2025, the hotel's development follows a franchise agreement with Spring House
Srl, owned by Stefano Gabbani and his family, who have operated the property
since 1969.
Palazzo Caracciolo Naples, Tapestry Collection by
Hilton
Naples will welcome its first Tapestry Collection
by Hilton hotel through a franchise agreement with Ownco, which saw the opening
of The Britannique Naples, Curio Collection by Hilton in
2020. The hotel – formerly a 13th century palace – was first home of
Gioacchino Murat when he arrived in Naples prior to becoming King of Naples.
With its Renaissance style and design still in full display today, the hotel
will continue to welcome guests while renovations take place and is set to
fully rebrand to Tapestry Collection by Hilton this spring. Renovations for the
145-room hotel will feature unique architectural decoration paying homage to
both the region’s history and culture with towering ceiling heights, a
cloistered courtyard and a monumental staircase. The stunning new addition to
Hilton’s Italian portfolio will feature a restaurant and bar, as well as a gym
and wellness area and is within walking proximity of the Mediterranean
coast.
La Rosetta Hotel Perugia, Tapestry Collection by
Hilton
Located in the heart of Perugia, the capital of the
Umbria region, the opening of La Rosetta Hotel will mark Hilton’s first hotel
in the area. With portions of the structure originally built in the 15th century,
the 74-guest room hotel boasts stunning hand-painted ceilings, wooden furniture
and artwork adorning its many walls. With Perugia being one of Italy’s most
popular tourist destinations in recent years, this announcement is reflective
of Hilton’s increasing growth in regional cities across Italy. The hotel will
be located in the city centre and will provide easy access to nearby historical
landmarks as well as accessible connections to the wider Umbria region to
cities including Assisi, Todi and Gubbio. Set for completion in the second half
of 2025, the hotel follows a franchise agreement with a company owned by the
family members of Simone Fittuccia and Rodolfo Mencarelli.
