Built in 1822, the Hotel La Palma is Capri’s first and oldest hotel. It was a hive of activity for notable artists, poets, writers and musicians from all over the world in its heyday, and the epicentre of the social scene on the island, just mere steps away from the famous Piazzetta.
Today, Oetker Collection has announced that the Hotel La Palma will be joining its portfolio of Masterpiece Hotels. The renovated hotel is set to debut in April 2022, which hopefully, also marks a time when we can all freely travel again.
The hotel will receive a complete transformation, and the room count will be decreased from 80 to 50, including 18 suites, each complete with its own private balcony or terrace. The finished property will also house a rooftop restaurant and bar, its own beach club, a newly built pool deck, spa and high-fashion boutiques. The legendary nightclub on the premises, La Taverna Anema e Core, will also be re-opened.

The wow factor of Capri is everlasting - from Emperor Tiberius to Jackie Onassis, not to mention Mariah and Mr Valentino - this tiny, four-square-mile dot in the middle of the Tyrrhenian Sea still seduces with all the drama of its elemental landscape. After a capricious few decades of new destination mania, the pandemic has definitely made us long for, and miss old favourites, especially the honeypot allure and old school glamour of say, Capri.
