Dear Guests,
The Covid-19 crisis is more severe than we thought.
The tourism and travel industry has been hit hard. Although we have prepared our structure with all the preventive measures needed to welcome safely our guests this summer, finally we considered it’s wiser to wait for the 2021 season. The last word has not been said on this deadly virus and we do not want, by the simple fact of opening our hotel, to put in danger the lives of others (and ours).
So, we take advantage of this break to completely redecorate all our rooms: next summer they will welcome you even more beautiful and sumptuous.
The hotel will stay open to the city and its residents from July 1st, 2020 in its other dimension: the arts.
- We will soon publish the program of exhibitions, which looks very interesting.
- The action "Artists in residence", promoted by BACS (Biennale of Contemporary Sacred Art, which has its headquarters in our hotel), remains unchanged - see www.biennale-bacs.com
- The boutique "Brocante des Ambassadeurs" will offer you the opportunity to buy old and modern objects belonging to our hotel at very attractive prices: lamps, bibelots, ancient books, prints and engravings, chandeliers, brocade curtains, silk tablecloths, sculptures, important pieces of furniture, decorative objects of all kinds, paintings.
- "Art and Wine" is a newly created space that will explain the history of wine through the artworks.
Visits to art spaces and the Boutique will be strictly regulated by the safety measures that we have already implemented.
The Grand Hôtel des Ambassadeurs and its works of art await you with open arms and wish you a sweet summer.
Mauro and Liana Marabini
