Your guide to the best luxury hotels in Italy
Orient Express Venezia · VeniceEvery booking of a hotel through suitespot includes:- Breakfast for two – at every hotel in our selection
- Room upgrade – at almost every one; it is missing at four
- Late check-out at 362 properties
- Hotel credit at 275
Entry level sits at around €111 at The Tribune Rome. At the top the range leaves room-rate logic behind: Villa Petrucci Florence is listed at around €26,960, which is a whole-property rate. A typical rate in Italy is about €395.
The largest destination is not a city but a region: Tuscany, with 78 properties.
Ten entries are not hotels but entire houses
Ten of Italy's 397 entries are private properties: villas, masserie, trulli and one castle, booked as a whole object. They therefore carry neither breakfast nor a room upgrade – neither makes sense for an entire house.Belmond Hotel Splendido Mare PortofinoIn their place stands a package of their own: a 500 € concierge credit per stay, a private pool and terrace, a property manager with additional staff on request, a private chef service on request (food and drink charged separately) and exclusive leisure, sports or wellness facilities.Personal luxury travel adviceOur travel advisors personally accompany your booking – 365 days a year, from the first offer to late check-out. Reach the suitespot VIP service via email or WhatsApp.Phone: +49 30 81452346 · hotel@suitespot.comThe ten, by rate: Villa Petrucci Florence (around 26,960 €), Villa Ada Sardinia (around 24,000 €), Dimora Ghirlandaio Tuscany (around 17,030 €), Castello Di Procopio Umbria (around 15,000 €), Il Cellese Tuscany (around 9,600 €), Villa Marzia Sardinia (around 7,830 €), Masseria Pistola Puglia (around 4,400 €), Masseria Petrarolo Puglia (around 4,089 €), Trullo delle Dame Puglia (around 3,340 €) and Trullo dei Pumi Puglia (around 2,710 €).
Those are rates for the whole property, not for a room. They are therefore kept separate from the hotel prices on this page.
Ten of the 39 private properties in our entire portfolio stand in Italy – the second largest group after Spain with 13.
Conversely, not every villa is such a property: Rocco Forte Private Villas Verdura Resort Sicily and Villa Margherita Amalfi Coast are run as hotels, with breakfast and upgrade.
What a night costs – counted without the whole-property rates
Counting only the hotels, Italy does not end at 26,960 € but at 3,746 €.
The range
An entry rate is on file for 375 hotels: from around 111 € to around 3,746 €, with the mid-point at around 390 €. The two ends are a factor of 33.7 apart.
How the prices are spread
11 hotels start below 150 €, 31 below 200 € and 120 below 300 €. Half the field sits below 500 €: 255 hotels.Forestis · BrixenAbove that it thins out: 120 hotels start at 500 € or more, only 26 at 1,000 € and two at 2,000 €.
The two ends
Most affordable are The Tribune Rome (around 111 €), the Hyatt Centric Murano Venice (around 120 €), the Hotel Indigo Venice Sant'Elena (around 128 €), the Canne Bianche Lifestyle Hotel (around 134 €) and the Chapter Rome (around 141 €).
Most expensive are Villa Margherita Amalfi Coast (around 3,746 €), Rocco Forte Private Villas Verdura Resort Sicily (around 3,232 €), the Bvlgari Hotel Rome (around 1,990 €), the Villa del Parco Forte Village Resort (around 1,626 €) and the ROMEO Rome (around 1,600 €).
For eleven hotels no entry rate is on file – we clarify price and availability for your travel dates.
The largest destination is a region, not a city
Our Italian properties are spread across 38 destinations – and the largest of them is not a city.Cape of Senses Torri del BenacoTuscany leads with 78 properties, ahead of Rome with 62, Milan with 33, Florence with 30 and Venice with 26. Two more regions follow: Sardinia with 18 and Sardinia with 17.
Only then come the small places: Capri with six properties, Taormina with five, Forte dei Marmi and Naples with four each, Bolzano, Como, Genoa and Sorrento with three each.
The long tail runs from Amalfi, Cagliari, Lecce, Merano, Porto Ercole, Positano, Ravello and Stresa with two properties each down to places with a single one – Bologna, Lucca, Monza, Palermo, Porto Venere and others.
The ten private properties also lie almost entirely away from the cities – in Puglia (four), Tuscany (two), Sardinia (two), Umbria (one) and Florence (one).
Points programmes – and 160 properties without one
236 entries belong to a points programme, spread across fourteen different ones. 160 carry none – a good four in ten.
The large blocks: the Leaders Club with 84 properties, I Prefer with 50 and Marriott Bonvoy with 48. Those three alone cover 182 of the 236.
After that it gets small: Fans of Mandarin Oriental 12 (including the ten private properties), World of Hyatt, Radisson Rewards and IHG One Rewards eight each, ALL (Accor) and GHA Discovery five each, Hilton Honors four, Relais & Châteaux two, plus one each at Jumeirah ONE and SLH Invited.
A points credit is on file at 198 properties – markedly fewer than the 236 with a programme. We clarify for your booking whether points are credited.
A hotel credit applies at 275 entries.
Breakfast applies regardless of the programme: it is on file at every hotel in our selection. A room upgrade is missing at exactly four properties – the Hotel Eden Rome, the Hotel Principe Di Savoia Milan, the ME Milano Il Duca and the Palazzo Belvedere.
suitespot rates are full direct rates: the benefits come on top of the regular rate.
Suites and room categories
Our room data holds 4,915 categories for Italy. 1,928 of them are expressly listed as suites, 1,393 as rooms and 1,594 carry no type at all.Personal luxury travel adviceOur travel advisors personally accompany your booking – 365 days a year, from the first offer to late check-out. Reach the suitespot VIP service via email or WhatsApp.Phone: +49 30 81452346 · hotel@suitespot.comThe 1,928 are therefore the lower bound, not the total: almost every third category carries no type, and there are certainly further suites among them.
What can be said: Italy is our most category-rich destination, and among the typed categories the suite share sits at around 58 per cent – 1,928 of 3,321.
On the minimum stay, 182 properties expressly carry none and 79 ask for two nights. For the rest nothing is recorded; we confirm the condition for your travel dates.
