The World's 50 Best Hotels defines a boutique hotel as one with fewer than 50 rooms that is not part of a large chain or group. It must be a design-focused property, offering personalized service and unique features specific to its destination. For all these reasons and more, Passalacqua has earned second place among the 50 hotels selected by this year’s jury. An example of dedication to good taste, the continuous pursuit of beauty, and attention to detail can be found everywhere, especially in the pieces commissioned from the Bronzetto workshop: from the logo featuring three pikes, which Bronzetto transformed into a handle for the entrance door and a recurring motif in smaller functional objects, to the sophisticated portable PALMIRA lamps in bronze and fabric, the custom-made line of EDEN outdoor lamps, or the impressive custom chandelier, two meters in diameter, adorned with hundreds of small gilded oak leaves that took three months to complete. Bronzetto has had the honor of meeting and fulfilling the most diverse requests, contributing to making this hotel one among the bests in the world.
