Palazzo Margherita

Palazzo Margherita,&nbsp;Bernalda, Italy

Style credentials:&nbsp;Winner of&nbsp;the &lsquo;Best Dressed Hotel&rsquo; category at the Mr &amp; Mrs Smith Hotel Awards 2016, <a href="https://www.mrandmrssmith.com/luxury-hotels/palazzo-margherita?s%5Btags%5D=hotel.name%3Apalazzo-margherita" target="_blank">Palazzo Margherita</a> was once a crumbling 19th&nbsp;century relic in the 15th&nbsp;century hilltop town of Bernalda. It was then rediscovered by Godfather director Francis Ford Coppola, who pledged to restore the decaying building to its former glory. Interior designer Jacques Grange restored the original marble floors of the Palazzo, which also boasts hand-painted fresco ceilings, a courtyard, pool and even a Tunisian-themed suite.&nbsp;Today, Palazzo Margherita boasts&nbsp;unobtrusive yet intuitive service, extravagant suites designed by the Coppola clan, and rustic homemade cooking.

Mr &amp; Mrs Smith extra: For guests staying one night, a bottle of local wine; guests staying two nights or more get a three-course meal for two (including a starter, first and second course, fruit and house wine) instead.

Fendi Private Suites, Rome, Italy

Style credentials: Once called home by the Boncompagni Ludovisi family, <a href="http://www.fendiprivatesuites.com/en" target="_blank">Palazzo Fendi</a> is now a collection of seven private suites housed in the brand&rsquo;s own headquarters. Sitting&nbsp;in the heart of Rome, Fendi Private suites are&nbsp;a mere stone&rsquo;s throw from the Trevi Fountain &mdash; where the brand staged its epic Haute Fourrure show in 2016 &mdash; and the Spanish Steps. The chic and austere interiors of the suites echo that of the brand&rsquo;s stylish boutiques.

This re-spritzed former faded surf motel has communal areas as ravishing as its rooms: walls upholstered in bright, gorgeous textiles; blue-and-white candy-stripe day beds lining; the art-lined restaurant, where Noma veteran chef Ben Devlin works his magic.

Mr &amp; Mrs Smith extra: A bottle of prosecco and chef&#39;s plate on arrival, plus one cocktail of your choice whenever you most fancy it.
