Hotel Villa Cimbrone Ravello

For centuries Ravello, with its elegant villas and gardens, has been the preferred destination of those looking for peace and exclusivity during their visit to Italy's legendary Amalfi Coast. Precisely that offered to guests by Hotel Villa Cimbrone.

Villa Cimbrone was built way back in the 12th century, on the site of a previously existing Roman residence. An elegant patrician dwelling immersed in gardens gazing out over the sea, the villa was purchased in 1904 by Lord Grinthorpe Ernst William Beckett, art collector close to the Bloomsbury group. Restoration work, supervised by the well-connected English aristocrat, led to Villa Cimbrone's transformation in sumptuous abode graced by the likes of Lytton Strachey, E.M. Forster, D.H. Lawrence, John Maynard Keynes, Piaget, Sir Winston Churchill, the Duke of Kent and Greta Garbo.

Hand painted majolica floor tiles made in Vietri sul Mare, impressive stone fireplaces, and magnificent frescoed ceilings feature in the rooms of Hotel Villa Cimbrone. The careful integration of modern technology has resulted in the extremely desirable combination of old world glamour and the highest levels of contemporary comfort.
