Main floor

The hotel, owned by the American lawyer Michael Cioffi and renovated by designer Ilaria Miani, has three buildings housing only ten rooms and several villages full of taste which combine perfectly modernity and tradition, inviting to the most absolute peace and relax.

Spectacular decoration

During the renovation process, they have wisely preserved the traditional architectural elements which bring taste to the hotel, such as wooden beams or stone from the original medieval walls of certain rooms, giving the whole a tremendous brightness and a pleasant sensation of comfort.

Bathroom

In addition, each of the rooms, besides being impressive per se and housing contemporary artworks from handcrafted furniture, has a distinguishing feature that makes it more special if possible. One of them has a lovely copper tub dating from the eighteenth century, another a beautiful fireplace, other one a private garden… and so on one after another.

Rooms

We consider the bathrooms particularly charming. They are open to the room, and have gems like sinks carved in stone in a single piece, Italian marble floors… all designed for its guests to relax during their stay in this authentic paradise on Earth.

The sink

Along with the rooms, the resort also has some villas for families or to accommodate several people with very nice decoration, although perhaps with a more modern and not so rustic touch as it can be enjoyed in the other rooms of the hotel.

Villa

To sum up, we could not forget to mention the fantastic terraces in the hotel, with those incredible views over Tuscany. Can you imagine yourself having breakfast in one of those tables in a pleasant morning at the end of June, or celebrating a wedding in these gardens with pergola that can be seen there down?

Dreamy gardens

The hotel

First thing we see when arriving there is that there is no indication of it, so our break becomes more than special. For a romantic weekend, to get away or whatever you want. To look for reasons won’t be the hardest part, but to farewell this singular and unique place. This is a boutique hotel that used to be an old farmhouse in Empordà before.

A hammock in the garden

Balcony

Rooms covered in warm woods will make you feel like home and will remind you once again that simplicity is the true luxury. In the bathrooms, white marble is the maximum protagonist along with polished Venetian plaster walls in pearl white.

Rooms

Chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten -with three Michelin stars-, internationally known for his innovative and pioneering kitchen, has emerged as one of the most important chefs in the US and offers the best dishes in the exclusive restaurant of Matador Room hotel.
