The historic jewel that survived Lisbon's earthquake
In the heart of Lisbon, between the historic districts of Chiado, Bairro Alto and Príncipe Real, stands the majestic Palácio Ludovice. Built in the early 1700s, this emblematic building was the private residence of João Federico Ludovice, the architect of King João V, and has now been transformed into a luxury hotel. But this XVIII century palace is much more than a boutique hotel ; it's above all a living testimony to Lisbon's turbulent history.
La Fiermontina & Palazzo Bozzi Corso
La Fiermontina was conceived in 2015 by Giacomo Filali as a tribute to his grandmother, Antonia Fiermonte, her two artist husbands, and the region in which she was born and grew up.
Their family story is fascinating. The owners love to share it over an aperitivo with guests during their stay as a means of uncovering history, culture, and unique memories.
La Fiermontina and the Palazzo Bozzi Corso are in Lecce in the Puglia region of Italy. Often deemed ‘the Florence of the South’, Lecce is known for its ornate Baroque architecture, beauty, and history.
La Fiermontina is a hotel of 19 unique rooms and suites built around a rare 17th century private home in the heart of Old Lecce.
The Palazzo Bozzi Corso, built in 1775, is located just a few steps from La Fiermontina. A palatial ‘home’ like no other, where each of the 10 suites is an individual masterpiece, exuding the colorful personalities of those they were inspired by. This hotel of distinction balances classic elegance with contemporary design in a truly intimate and inclusive setting.

Six Senses Rome
Six Senses heads to the heart of the Eternal City, Rome, where artistic, cultural, and architectural marvels constitute a timeless and unique heritage.
Six Senses Rome will open its doors in early 2023 in the heart of the historic center, overlooking Via del Corso, a few steps from the Pantheon and the Trevi Fountain.
Protected by the Roman municipality and classified by the Capitoline Superintendence for Cultural Heritage, the façade and the monumental staircase have been restored to their original splendor. As part of their first community project, Six Senses also supported major renovations to revive the facade of the church of San Marcello al Corso, next door.
In collaboration with renowned architect Patricia Urquiola, Six Senses Rome offers, with its 96 rooms and suites, an oasis of fresh greenery amidst the hustle and bustle of the Italian capital. A true refuge and haven of peace, thanks to the Six Senses Spa and its Roman baths, the BIVIUM Restaurant-Café-Bar and the NOTOS rooftop, a suspended garden with a panoramic view.
Six Senses Rome's Palazzo is a 50-minute drive from Rome's Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci International Airport, and about 40 minutes from Rome's second international airport, Ciampino. The port of Civitavecchia is 82 km or 1 hour and 15 minutes away. Private transfers and valet service are also available.
