Breakfast was excellent. Large variety and the fresh made scrambled eggs and bacon each morning was excellent. The villa itself is an incredible look into the past with its art and design. Short walk to the city center and lake!

Company info

Opening a hospitality business has always been somewhat of a dream we had, and were never able to pursue due to our respective careers, family, and so on. When we first laid eyes on Villa Platamone, we realised this is the opportunity we were waiting for. We decided we should share its beauty and rich history with others. Our life-long dream along with this incredible location led to one clear result – opening a luxury boutique hotel. We love travelling, and above all appreciate comfort, personal attention, and unique experiences. These are the key values we work by, and aim to deliver to our guests.
