Suite Dreams
Featuring sleek marble floors, ornate pillars, paintings, statues, antique furnishings and open fireplaces, stepping into the reception hall of the Hotel Villa Padierna is like stepping back through time. Fortunately, the hotel is packed with more than enough modern amenities to keep contemporary guests happy, with a gourmet restaurant manned by Michelin-starred chef Martin Berasategui, a golf course enjoyed by argyle-clad club-swingers, and an on-site Thermae Spa indulged by those who like to be preened and pampered. Aside from its amenities, Hotel Villa Padierna is also renowned for its 112 well-appointed rooms and suites, all of which are furnished to the highest standard with fine thread-count Frette sheets, stunning objets d'art and French windows that open onto spectacular views of the shimmering sea and distant mountains. Highly recommended is the 2,207-square-foot Opera Suite, which features two oversized bedrooms, dressing room, two living rooms, two kitchenettes and six private terraces. The icing on the cake, however, has to be the suite's own swimming pool and sundeck, where guests can laze about in complete and utter privacy. Complextely redefining upscale hospitality, the Hotel Villa Padierna is everything Gunpowder loves about hotels, and so much more.
