Hotel / Bed and Breakfast, Tuscany - Palazzo degli Artisti, Pietrasanta
HOTEL ACCOMMODATION IN PIETRASANTA, TUSCANY
The luxury of a grand hotel combined with the simplicity of your own home.
This is the philosophy of the Palazzo degli Artisti of Pietrasanta, a prestigious
resort where the charm of elegant surroundings blends with the atmosphere of
a unique town and class of its guests.
First and foremost, is Pietrasanta itself.
It has been the cultural capital of Versilia since the times of Michelangelo
Buonarroti. The town, embraced by the Apuane alps and Tyrrhenian sea, is one
of the world art centres, rich in traditions and workshops of marble and
numerous art foundries, where all the great international artists produce their
work in marble and bronze with the aid of the skilled local workers.
Here
it is easy to stumble across leading figures from the cultural life of Versilia:
from Cascella and
Yan Kasuda to Jean Michel Folon, Igor Mitoraj and Fernando Botero. Today, Pietrasanta,
which is also called little Athens for its rich culture, is a fashionable place
for international tourism.
Added to the craft shops are the numerous art galleries and restaurants where
you can taste typical products from the best Tuscan cuisine.
Palazzo Degli Artisti is set right in the historic centre, in the heart of
this architectural treasure. A few years ago, an architect from Pietrasanta,
Marco
Bascherini, carefully restored the building, which was erected in the late
nineteenth century. It once belonged to a noble Florentine family who turned
it into their residence. The property was conceded by the Marquis Ernesto Umberto
Dazzini Vidomini and it was transformed for the purpose of welcoming guests.
Today, there are four luxury suites, a loft on the third floor and a prestigious
room
on
the ground floor, where the common areas and reception can also be found. The
style is a rather special Bed & Breakfast thanks to its truly unique atmosphere.
